Beer Review: Long Trail, Pollenator
Parched No More —
Authority: 408
Bottle/Tap: Bottle A few weeks back I was in Vermont camping with friends, and we paid a visit to the Long Trail Brewery . We had a good time with great food and some delicious beer. One of those beers was the Pollenator, and I decided to grab a bottle to bring back home with me since it was such a rare release. ...13 hours ago -
Beer Review: Williamsburg Alewerks’ Grand Illumination
Mmm...Beer —
Authority: 124
Wow, what a big beer to be tasting. First you need to understand a few things. This beer is part of their brewmaster series that was done back in 2007. You can still bottles for sale and fortunately most of them are big beers so the aging that has occurred won’t hurt. In fact it might even help build a more ...1 day ago -
Orkneys Dark Island
THE GOOD STUFF —
Authority: 113
Just enough time for a quick midweek post before getting onto some Champions League action. Last night I had the pleasure of a couple of pints of Orkneys Dark Island at The Victoria, Leeds (Who were playing Fleet Foxes and Neil Young all night- an excellent choice). Smooth, with a tan head, Dark Island was just what ...5 days ago -
Beer review – Warrior IPA
Sioux Brew —
Authority: 126
Warrior IPA enters the Siouxland marketplace with a fresh hop beer brewed with 100% Colorado-grown hops. My only fault with the beer is that I think the hop profile gets a little too jiggy in the finish. Brewed by Left Hand Brewing Co. in Longmont, Colo., Warrior pours a deep golden orange with a tall, light tan ...1 week ago -
Beer Here Dark Hops
Legal Beer —
Authority: 99
I found this bottle of Dark Hops from the brewers of Beer Here who hail from Norway a month or so ago on the shelves of The Four Firkins . I also picked up a bottle of their Pumpernickel Porter but that will be for another day. I know very little of the Beer Here Brewery but if you can read Norwegian perhaps you ...1 week ago -
For The Veggies....
THE GOOD STUFF —
Authority: 113
Its not often at all that I cook something entirely without meat; just call me old-fashioned. But I put this together last night literally using what I had in the fridge and cupboards, and it was awesome, full of flavour and warming on a Halloween night. A tasty happy accident, indeed. Smoked Cheese & Herb ...1 week ago -
Feeling stout
Mostly Muppet —
Authority: 112
I too have encountered MNB’s “Stout Dilemma” – too heavy, too bitter, too alcoholic – and I’ve tried my best to walk it back at every opportunity. I’ve found that most folks who can’t at least appreciate a good stout or porter don’t actually like beer as much as they like being drunk and/or ...1 week ago -
Goose Island Sofie
Legal Beer —
Authority: 99
It’s been many weeks since I purchased this bottle from The Four Firkins but it has patiently waited in my fridge for this day of consumption. I haven’t been able to post lately as my Hard Drive decided to stop receiving power leaving me shit out of luck. Of course my Goose Island’s Belgian Style Series and is ...1 week ago -
Beer review – Schell’s 2009 Snowstorm
Sioux Brew —
Authority: 126
The 2009 edition of Schell’s Snowstorm continues the trend of the New Ulm, Minn., brewery kicking out a top notch winter seasonal. This year’s version of the beer – the style and recipe changes each year – is a Baltic porter. And, Schell’s take on the style is at once flavorful and delicate. I consider ...1 week ago -
Beer review – Horizon Red Ale
Sioux Brew —
Authority: 126
Horizon Red Ale from St. Paul, Minn’s, Summit Brewing Co. is a satisfying hop-forward ale that doesn’t forget that hoppy ales need malt for balance. Horizon Red Ale pours a ruddy brown with a tall fluffy tan head that leaves lots of lacing on the glass. Its aroma is slightly sweet malt dominated by nicely ...2 weeks ago -
Why Bother?
THE GOOD STUFF —
Authority: 113
The universe moves in funny ways. Recently, I was asked no less than three times in one week, by three different people in three different pubs, why I write about beer. Given that I’d read a couple of articles in the blogosphere recently along the same lines, I thought I would put together an answer - at least for ...2 weeks ago -
Beer Review: Brewery Ommegang’s Adoration
Mmm...Beer —
Authority: 124
Tonight’s review is a special one really, it’s Brewery Ommegang’s Adoration . As I understand it this is a limited run so you may not see this again. I heard about this about a month ago and eagerly waited for it to hit the market around here. It’s listed a Belgian Strong Dark Ale with a lot of ...2 weeks ago -

El Clon —
Authority: 124
Beer: Marke Weltenburger Pils (4.9% ABV & in 3D) Pour: Chunky 1” head that clung to the glass. Taste: I might have had a bad bottle, as there was underlying cheesiness. Yeah. Weird. Other that that it was very floral. Finish: Surprisingly watery. A little pizza crust. Could be that cheese… Drinkability: ...2 weeks ago -
Nogne - O pt 2: Brown Ale
THE GOOD STUFF —
Authority: 113
Ok, I’m continuing my NO love-in with their Brown Ale (Bottle-Conditioned, 4.5%abv). Remember last time - I said that I thought that their tastes lie more US that UK – well, Brown Ale confounded that one. Smooth in the body, dark ruby in colour, and with a gentle, spicy hoppiness rather than a massive kick to ...2 weeks ago -
Independence Brewing Oatmeal Stout
Wort's Going On Here? —
Authority: 122
After Oktoberfest , Amy and Rob Cartwright of Independence Brewing gave me a bottle of the Oatmeal Stout they brewed for GABF. I saved it for a while before sampling. I had a lot of different beer during Oktoberfest, and my palate was blown. So I sat down the other night to try it. Its awesome. Just like ...2 weeks ago -

America’s Original Pumpkin Ale is a pleasant, easy to drink pumpkin and spice beer whose flavors key more on pumpkin pie spices than actual pumpkin flavor. Pumpkin Ale is brewed by Pyramid Brewing Co . of Seattle, Washington, for Buffalo Bill’s Brewery of Hayward, Calif. Pumpkin Ale pours a light orange ...3 weeks ago -

Beer Review: Three Virginia India Pale Ales
Mmm...Beer —
Authority: 124
Wow have I got a treat for you. This past weekend I decided to give three of Virginia’s fine IPAs a try. Before I go any further I am positive that someone will say “Well you didn’t include this or that, so you didn’t try the best” or “Man, I’ve had that one before and it was horrible.’ I ...3 weeks ago -
2009 Fall Beer Review: Part 2
Veggiemacabre —
Authority: 108
Goodness, it’s almost the middle of October already? That is insane and really the only reason it hit me today is the fact that my face is numb from walking downtown tonight. That hasn’t happened since April here. And you know what that means? Fuckin’ snow is just around the corner and I will be bitching and ...4 weeks ago -
Beer Review – Seeyoulator Doppelbock
Sioux Brew —
Authority: 126
Is it irony that one of the highest alcohol beers in Boulevard Brewing Co.’s Smokestack Series is called Seeyoulator? Seeyoulator Doppelbock is a big beer and you’ll be reminded of its 8.5% alcohol by volume with every sip you take. Seeyoulator pours a medium amber with a massive puffy, tan head. Its aroma ...4 weeks ago
