Lakefront New Grist Sorghum Beer

The second beer of the night. This is another one that Katie picked. I’m not quite sure why she did…I mean, neither of us have any issues with gluten. But, hey, I know it’s hard to pick out beer for me. So, let’s try this one. ABV: 5.75% Style: Fruit/Vegetable Beer Trivia: According to the [...]

Leinenkugel’s Berry Weiss

Another day done. I was pretty productive today after work, which was nice. I started putting together an inversion table for my sister. I got about halfway through. I also got another two cases of bottles soaking, so I’m almost caught up with that. And, it’s almost the weekend. I think I’m going to try [...]

Spanish Peaks Honey Raspberry Ale

Another day done. I’m really not feeling this heat in New Jersey. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I like nice weather, but I have a feeling this means that the summer is just going to be unbearable. And I HATE the heat. I’d rather have ten below zero than 110 degrees in July. This [...]

Long Trail Blackbeary Wheat

Another brew of the fruit beer six-pack. This one has a special place in my heart. This was one that I started drinking really early on in my craft beer journey. I was usually between Abita Purple Haze, Magic Hat #9 and this. I remember it as being an easy drinker and one that almost [...]

St. John Tropical Mango Ale

The second brew of the night and the first one of the fruit beer six-pack (AKA the stuff my sister likes). So, in the last post, I went a little bit into my bottling day. Today went incredibly smoothly. That was for a few reasons. First, I used the vinator that I got for Christmas. [...]

Leinenkugel’s Summer Shandy

This was the second beer of last night. I’ve had this beer before, probably before I even started the blog. I hated it. I mean, beer and lemonade? A lot of things work in beer for me, lemonade is not one of them. Let’s see if my opinion changed on this one… ABV: 4.2% Style: [...]

Blue Point Blueberry

Another review for the night. My Phils are finally looking like they should. I know that they can’t win every game, but I hate when they lose games early in the season. It’s also difficult when they have both Utley and Howard out. I have a new appreciation for baseball season because I now get [...]

Dogfish Head Fort (2011)

Wow, long time no update. It’s not that I haven’t been reviewing beers, I just haven’t had time to type of the reviews. This was the beer that I opened on Easter. Easter was absolute craziness. I woke up at 0200 to put my pork shoulder in the smoker and was waking up about once [...]

St. Peter’s Fruit Beer (Grapefruit)

What a day. This was just not a good day in general, so I’m happy that I’m home. Tomorrow is Fire Academy and then after that, I get to spend the weekend with Katie. I picked this beer up not only because I’m in the middle of reviewing my British beers, but because the bottle [...]

Shipyard Smashed Blueberry (Pugsley’s Signature Series)

This is a review I typed up before vacation. I picked this up at the beer store because I hadn’t seen any beers from the Signature Series around. Plus, I’m a big blueberry fan… ABV: 9% Style: Fruit/Vegetable Beer Trivia: According to brewery website, “This beer is a hybrid between a Porter and a Scotch [...]
