Middle of the week review: Green’s Quest

This particular beer is a Belgian Triple Blonde Ale and the only one that I’ve tried from Green’s brewing.  I had this a couple of nights ago, which gave me a few days to process the brew.  By the way, it is gluten free…some of you will be happy about this. Like the name indicates, the beer [...]

Middle of the week review: Aventinus Weizen Eisbock

Not your average Wheat beer.  Schneider and Sohn’s makes a very nice lines of beers, which are not necessarily conventional.  There are so many good beers that come out of Germany, especially Bavaria, it is hard to call one great.  However, this particular brew is one example of German beers at their finest.  This beer is [...]

Middle of the week review: Chimay Red

It’s been quite a long time since I have had any of the Chimay Ales.  At the time that I drank them, I knew they had a reputation of being very good beers.  As time goes on, you develop your palate and taste stuff very differently.  I imagine that I’ll taste this even a little differently in five years.  One thing [...]

Middle of the week review: Leinenkugel’s Berry Weiss

Thank you for giving me this beer, Matt.  I really do appreciate trying a new beer, even if I don’t like it.  Unfortunately, I have to say this about Leinenkugel’s Berry Weiss.  They do have some other beers that I like much better than this one (their Oktoberfest is an example).  Here is a review [...]

Sam Adam’s Utopias: Beer Review

Doing this review is certainly one of the least Bourgeoisie things I’ve done.  Imagine paying anywhere from $160-$230 dollars for a 24 ounce bottle of beer, even if it does come in a hand-crafted vessel.  Now it is true that different boys like different toys, so I feel a little better in that respect.  I spend [...]

Middle of the week review: Bison Gingerbread Ale

In continuation of our Christmas beer binge, I’m posting about this Bison Christmas Ale.  As I might have mentioned before, a lot of Christmas Ales tend to be very spiced, which can be a real turn-off.  So, let me say that some beers we try will probably be this way.  However, this Bison beer is [...]

Middle of the Week Review: Samuel Adams Chocolate Bock

Last night I drank this beer that I’ve not had for about 4 years.  I remembered really enjoying it at the time, especially with a friend and some Davidoff cigars.  It went excellently with those smokes. Samuel Adam’s Chocolate Bock is considered one of their extreme beers, if you look at their website.  They have [...]

Middle of the week review: Old Leg Humper Robust Porter

What an interesting and glorious name.  What else can one say about this beer?  We might as well behave like the dog on the bottle and go for it (I mean trying the beer).  I’ve mention some information on Porters before when I wrote about Stouts.  I’m also planning on writing an article about them [...]

Middle of the week review: De Dolle Brouwers Oerbier

In an effort to talk about more beers, we are planning to review an additional beer or two a week.  This will happen on top of our Drink It with Us Friday beers.  We want to beginning building a database a beers for those who visit to scroll through.  We’re also hoping that this will [...]
