Week 26, Moonshot, Beer with Caffeine

This beer was REALLY light, I couldn't really tell if it had caffeine in it since I drink Diet Mountain Dew during the day so I've had my share of caffeine.

Aroma of lemons and citrus along with grain. Taste mimics the aroma light on the tongue and went down quick. No real aftertaste at all, very clean. I bought it since it had a rocket on the bottle, no other reason.

Festivals and such

On Thursday evening I'm going with Becky to a Private Beer and Wine Party for the Piedmont Park Conservancy. The same one that I had the photo above of mine as the cover of they're 2007 calendar. It's an IR shot off the dock at Lake Clara Mere.

This weekend is the Winter Winefest and next weekend (27th) is the Beer Carnival.

Week 25, Lagunitas 2009 Correction Ale

More than enough Pine aroma and taste.

Week 24, Left Hand Chainsaw Ale - Double Sawtooth

Nice IPA! also high gravity and will blow your doors off.

Week 23, Lagunitas - Brown Shugga'

Poured up a dark orange/red with an off white head of only about a finger.

The aroma of molasses and honey with no real hint of the 9+ percent alcohol content. the taste was dominated by malt & molasses, a very complex beer. Hints of oak and leather are also present.

The mouthfeel is heavy and sugary (Brown Shugga, duh) some alcohol hints but not too harsh. Overall a smooth tasting and complex beer.

Week 22, Val Dieu Brown

Nice Belgian Brown Ale
