| - Local brewing at its best, $10 growlers to go, pub tables and pints to stay, and a bucket of peanuts for cracking were all welcome sights at this popular Micro-Brew-Pub. As it came to be, my bro and I's afternoon was spent trying them all and try we did thanks to their flight offerings.
I'm sure you're thinking that's way too much beer but I assure you we shared, sipped and took our sweet time. Then by the highly scientific elimination process of bracketology we were able to define some winners and losers.
1st Place, Ladybird Brown was smooth, well balanced between hops and malt that just goes down way too easy.
2nd Pride Abbey Ale while a tad sweeter more of a Belgium style which packs a whopping 8.4% alcohol to keep you warm and put for the holidays.
3rd Freewill, A refreshing golden hue of a brew that goes down easy with no bitter hops, I could drink this all day on a sunny afternoon.
4th Jalapeno, A lot like the other golden ales but the nose is a no mistake about it, fresh Jalapeno spice that had me craving chips and salsa. I would love to have this at my next Taco Fiesta / Backyard BBQ and maybe even try it as a Michelada with chile and lime.
And I can't forget the Lay-Hoo-Say-Err is,
*drum roll* ....Doin' Thyme.... *crash cymbal*
I guess if you were doin' thyme in jail long enough this could be a palatable choice but most definitely it is not for moi. I don't know what was worse the unfathomable whiffs of V8 celery and tomato or the kick of V05 essence that lingers on the back of your tongue like concentrated Echinacea. They should serve this with a scope chaser. This beer may well be the worst beer in the whole Universe. So do it if you dare but most definitely try a sample first.
Thanks BirdSong!
