This was the second brew that I had at the bar. Again, this one was served in a pint glass. It kills me that they were serving such amazing beers and they only had pint glasses. If you’re going to try to attract beer nerds, you should have some different types of glassware. But, I [...]

Green Flash Rayon Vert
Posted: March 18, 2012 in Belgian Pale Ale, Green Flash Brewing Company, ReviewsHere’s the second beer of the California six-pack. This is the newest selection from Green Flash, which is a brewery I tend to really like the selections from. The weather this weekend has been insane. Although I really liked working on the blog outside today (I made two new pages on the blog about beer [...]
Last night was St. Patrick’s Day and I had all these wonderful plans to go to different Irish bars. Well, it didn’t happen. I was exhausted Saturday and ended up hanging around the house. My sister and I went to this really nice restaurant in Sea Bright and then I went out with Katie after [...]
The second review of the night. I figured that I needed something to calm me during the Eagles game and it’s always a treat to have anything from Goose Island, since we can’t get it in New Jersey. I wonder if the fact they were taken over by a macro will change where Goose Island [...]
Russian River Redemption
Posted: June 3, 2011 in Belgian Pale Ale, Reviews, Russian River Brewing CompanyToday, as most people know, marks the start of Philly Beer Week. I am unfortunately not in Philly right now. But, I will be there tomorrow at Navy Yard and then probably hitting up Memphis Taproom. In preparation for tomorrow, I did extra cardio at the gym today and instead of opening up a bomber [...]
Brasserie Dieu Du Ciel Derniere Volonte
Posted: May 15, 2011 in Belgian Pale Ale, Brasserie Dieu Du Ciel, ReviewsWhenever I go to a brewery or a brewpub and get a sampler, I always wonder if I should do reviews on the brews I have. I have done it in the past, but lately, I don’t think that a four ounce sample is enough to do a review on. I had a sampler at [...]
Ommegang BPA (Belgian-style Pale Ale)
Posted: January 10, 2011 in Belgian Pale Ale, Brewery Ommegang, ReviewsThis was the first brew that I had yesterday during the absolutely atrocious Eagles game. It was also the last bomber in the Ommegang gift set that I got. I later switched to something a little more bitter after I couldn’t take it anymore. ABV: 6.2% Style: Belgian Pale Ale Trivia: According to BeerAdvocate, “Belgian [...]
I came upon this beer by chance in the beer store on the shelf. As soon as I saw that it had Sorachi Ace hops, I knew that it had to come home with me. After I had Brooklyn’s Sorachi Ace, I’ve had an ongoing obsession with that type of hop. Given that it’s a [...]
It’s been a long day. I had my two classes today (Wednesday is usually my day off from school), which went pretty well and then work and then the gym. I’m just tired. Tomorrow, I have classes again, but I’m off from work, so I can catch up on school work, maybe write another examiner.com [...]
Victory CBC Hersbrucker BPA
Posted: August 20, 2010 in Belgian Pale Ale, Reviews, Victory Brewing CompanyThis brew wasn’t even described in the Victory beer book. There’s not a lot of information on this brew. What I could find while I was there was that this was a Belgian Pale Ale, and I’ve never had one of those, so I figured I’d try it. ABV: 5.8% Style: Belgian Pale Ale Trivia: [...]
