What Beer Are You Drinking - Summer 2012

Just a bunch of ice cold Old Style while watching sports on tv. Nothing fancy but it hit the spot.

Been sittin' out back sippin' on my last Great Lakes Dortmunder Gold. Now, I must wait until KBF, when I can pick up more of this fantastic beer while in Kentucky.

New Belgium Ranger...the hops immediately hit you in the face

For the first time this weekend, I tried the Sam Adams Octoberfest special brew. IMHO, it is exceptionally good. I got a case at Costco for $27, which is much better than the $9 or so that SA sells for by the 6-pack around here.

We just had a lengthy discussion about SA Oktoberfest too, now that it's shown up on store shelves, along with Spaten's classic Oktoberfest. I usually get a case of each and they last me through the next few months when I just peck away at them a few at a time. Enjoy, Tim!

This weekend I enjoyed a Bell's Two Hearted Ale and Sweetwater Festive that had been hiding in the back of the fridge.

Just picked up a Rogue Chipotle Ale. Rogue is my favorite brewery at the moment. But this Chipotle Ale isn't what I thought it would be. It isn't bad per se. I just expected more pepper kick.

Today I picked up a 6 of Snake Dog India Pale Ale from the fine folks at Flying Dog Ales of Fredrick, MD.
Good IPA, weighs in at 7.1%ABV & 60IBU.
It is a worthy brother of MI fine IPA's and better than the ones I have had from CO & CA.
This leads me to a question.
Back in the early to mid 1990's there was a micro brewer in Fredrick, MD.
I took the tour and afterwards got to sample their wheat beer, it was the best I ever had.
But what ever happened to Fredrick Brewery?
Did they become Flying Dog?

Had a Moretti Rossa - a doppelbock - not bad.

Ice cold Sierra Nevada Pale Ale after cutting the grass last night. Tasty!
