Another brew for the night. This is a beer that I’ve never heard of, but it’s another British beer for the week. They also make Old Speckled Hen, another British beer that I’ve never had, which I should probably seek out given the reviews that I’ve read about it. The bottle is pretty boring, hopefully [...]

What a day. Work was not fun at all today. Then, I went to the Academy and learned all about fire hydrants and water supplies. It was actually pretty interesting. The only bad part is that I still have 3 chapters worth of homework to get done this weekend. So, today we’re going to start [...]

The second British brew for the night. I don’t know why I’ve avoided British beers. I mean, at least with IPAs I know why. I tend to really enjoy the bolder flavors of an American IPA compared to a British one, but in terms of other styles, I really need to start expanding. Let’s see [...]

As I’ve mentioned before, I worked on a project where I compiled all of the data of styles and breweries that I’ve reviewed so far. What I found was something that I knew already. I tend to stay in my comfort zone and I favor American breweries and my favorite styles. So, what I’ve decided [...]

Sunday! The one day of the week that I usually have nothing going on. I don’t have Academy and I don’t have to work. It’s really quite the combination. I get to sleep in, have breakfast with my sister and usually do some FF homework and laundry and just get ready for the week ahead. [...]

Another review from Bell’s. It’s always a treat to have a beer that isn’t distributed in your area. I’m watching Hoarders again and I have never seen houses this bad. I remember when I used to work on the road in EMS and I saw a few houses that looked like this. It was never [...]

And…I’m back. It was a crazy week at work, coupled with the Academy kicking my ass and entertaining an incredibly cute 4 year old. It’s been busy to say the least. I had this one at one of my favorite places to watch a game in New Jersey…Chickie’s and Pete’s. After some crab fries, I [...]

Bell’s Winter White Ale

Posted: February 20, 2012 in Bell's Brewery, Reviews, Witbier

Here’s the second review of the night. I got a variety case of Bell’s brews the last time I was in Pennsylvania since it’s not distributed in New Jersey. I’ve had a few Bell’s brews in the past and really enjoyed them. I’ve also never seen a winter witbier as a seasonal. Let’s crack this [...]

Happy President’s Day! I was stuck at work all day, unfortunately, whereas most people I know were off. Work was actually pretty busy today and I ended up staying later than I thought. Tomorrow, I’m actually working out of a different office tomorrow, which means that I’m getting up at 0500 tomorrow. Well, this brew [...]

Here’s the second review of the night. This came from a day trip to Pennsylvania. I picked up a mixed six-pack of Bell’s Brewery beers, which I can’t get in New Jersey. I’ve only had a few Bell’s brews, but what I’ve had from them, I’ve tended to really like. Given that this is a [...]
