Obviously Bud Light is nothing like some of the fancier beers I've reviewed. It's a kickback beer, good for a tailgate or a cottage. If you're looking to pound back a dozen beers and have a good time, here's the beer for you. If you're wanting flavour, stay away. In judging the taste, there's not … Continue reading Beer Blog #8: Bud Light
Ber Blog #7: St. Ambroise Oatmeal Stout
Here's an online review of this beer from some sort of beer connoisseur: "Like a good cheddar, this drinks very well if left out of the fridge a bit - the sharpness of the cold hides the flavours that mellow with temperature. You’ll find that belgian chocolate taste, the espresso edge... it’s best paired with … Continue reading Ber Blog #7: St. Ambroise Oatmeal Stout
Beer Blog #6: Whitewater Peanut Butter Shake
Big fan of the can, really shows you what you're getting yourself into. When I bought this beer, the guy at the cash essentially warned me that it was too sweet, and too peanut buttery. But I'm a man of the people, committed to reviewing every beer out there! As it turns out, this beer … Continue reading Beer Blog #6: Whitewater Peanut Butter Shake
Beer Blog #5: Nickel Brook Cause & Effect Blonde
This is a beer that has a little of everything, but not too much of anything. It’s hoppy but not excessively so. It’s a nice mix of sweet, citrus and a bit bitter. Not a “get hammered” beer, but I’d drink a few and be happy about it. SCORE OUT OF 10: 7.7 PLAYER COMPARABLE: … Continue reading Beer Blog #5: Nickel Brook Cause & Effect Blonde
Beer Blog #4: Guinness
Seeing as today is St. Patrick's Day, the beer of choice had to be Guinness. I don't say this often about a beer, so you know it means something- Guinness is a beautiful beer. Beautiful I tell ya! It's just so smooth and creamy. Right away, some people will be a little scared, thinking it's … Continue reading Beer Blog #4: Guinness
Beer Blog #3: All or Nothing Hopfenweisse
First of all, great can. Second, great taste. That's like having a great run game and defense in football- an obvious recipe for success. It fits what I'm looking for- hoppy but not over the top hops, plus a nice citrus touch. I'd have a couple of these after a tough week of work and … Continue reading Beer Blog #3: All or Nothing Hopfenweisse
Beer Blog #2: Iron Maiden Trooper
I was skeptical of this beer because it brags on the side of the can how much of it has been sold when really, the name sells the beer- anyone who likes Iron Maiden would try this beer. The question is, how many will buy this beer again after tasting it? The answer is at … Continue reading Beer Blog #2: Iron Maiden Trooper
Beer Blog #1: Old Milwaukee
This is pretty simple- drink a beer, give some feedback and a score out of 10. I’ll also give a player comparable, looking at players from all four major sports, current or retired. I'll review everything in the beer world, starting with a classic cheap beer: Back in the day, this was my go-to cheap … Continue reading Beer Blog #1: Old Milwaukee
