I've got a few quick reviews to share with you. They have nothing to do with each other. That seems to be my problem. I like so many different types of beer I wander aimlessly down the rows of beer randomly grabbing beer. Sometimes I choose by brewery by reputation, sometimes by type of beer, sometimes by the catchy name or striking label, and every once in awhile by the price tag (which can be upwards of ten bucks a bottle for some). I need direction. I need you wonderful hopheads out there to give me a few suggestions I may like and/or need to tell the world about. Leave me comments or you will continue to be subjected to my random beer grabs. I love to talk beer and am always up for discussion on any subject included in my blog or indeed anything about beer so talk to me people. Now that I've said that lets talk about a couple beers, shall we?
First up was a major winner.
Dogfish Head 90 minute IPA was a fullbodied brilliantly balanced beer. Blissfully hoppy, it was rich and backed with great malty power. It is indeed a glorious representation of an Imperial IPA. Yes, oh yes, it will find its' way home with me again.
Second beer for this post was
Anderson Valley Brewing's Barney Flats oatmeal stout. It has won lots of awards in the beer world so I wanted to try it for myself. I found it rather light with a mild sweetness. Soft malt and woody flavors came through and it was smooth going down. I found it less then bold in overall flavor but drinkable.
My time off is coming up which means a beer run is imminent. What will be next? Cheers!
