I was first presented with samples of Newcastle Summer Ale back in August of 2010 — so it’s been a good long while since I last drank the beer. According to that review, I was less than impressed. Fast forward to just a week or so ago, when I received an email from a PR [...]
I’ve had a couple of brews from New Jersey’s East Coast Brewing over the past year or so. Each was of a quality that isn’t necessarily out to challenge for a World Beer Cup gold medal, but each was also a beer I’d love to take to the beach and enjoy with some friends. The [...]
I don’t normally post reviews of beer that I’m not at all impressed with on this site. It was an unwritten law within my own little brain to not take shots at breweries that were just starting out and still tweaking their recipes. That mental mantra was formulated back in 2006 when this site was [...]
Originally released as a limited edition during November of last year, Flying Dog has decided to produce Pearl Necklace year round. The proceeds from the beer will continue to go to Oyster Recovery Partnership (ORP) — the goal of which is to plant at least 1 million baby oysters back into the Chesapeake Bay. A [...]
Press Release Alexandria, Virginia (May 14, 2012) — Bill Butcher, founder of Port City Brewing Company located at 3950 Wheeler Avenue in Alexandria, VA, is pleased to announce the release of their summer seasonal beer, Downright Pilsner, available this June. Crafted by Head Brewer Jonathan Reeves, this hand-crafted lager will be produced in the traditional [...]
Of the several Karl Strauss beers that I’ve received over the years, my least favorite (oddly enough, given my love of them) was a stout. The brewery’s 22nd Anniversary brew was an Imperial Stout that was formed from a blend that included barrel aging nonetheless. How could this not be my favorite of the bunch!? [...]
No beer is perfect. No matter how enthusiastically, fanboy-like it’s devotees may become, it’s just not possible. That said, Karl Strauss’ Tower 20 IIPA — a double IPA weighing in at 9.5% ABV and 100 IBU — just about got a perfect score from the Russian judges, and me. This prototypical West Coast brew (part [...]
I had originally reviewed Karl Strauss Brewing’s Red Trolley Off The Rails back in July of 2011 and enjoyed it quite a bit — it was nice to find a red ale that I actually liked. Usually, when I get samples like that from a brewery, that’s it. I rarely get the chance to revisit [...]
This beer from Brooklyn Brewery was part of a sample package that arrived last week. Having already reviewed Summer Ale last year, I hadn’t planned on revisiting it this time around. But, with this particular sample arriving in a can, it only seemed right to compare the two delivery mechanisms to see how the canned [...]
This sample of Brooklyn Brewery’s Lager is one of three newly canned products from the company that arrived last week. The East India Pale Ale was excellent, standing up nicely to its bottled version. This 5.2% ABV lager seemed to manage just fine as well — it’s been a while since I’ve had this brew, [...]
SierraNeveda’s Jack and Ken’s Ale is the third of the brewery’s four 30th Anniversary releases (the fourth coming in a month or so). As with all the beers in the limited series, this brew is another collaboration. This time Ken Grossman gets together with legendary microbrewer Jack McAuliffe in an attempt to capture the revolutionary [...]
So, this year’s Great American Beer Fest awards ceremony ended a few hours ago and while I caught a few minutes of the live stream provided by Beer Tap TV, I didn’t catch all the winners. Luckily, the Brewers Association has just posted the official winners list on their site. Big congrats go out to [...]
I hadn’t heard of Uinta Brewing before picking up two of their beers on a recent trip to Total Wine a month or so ago. I now know, however, that they are based out of Utah, they’ve won a slew of awards for their various beers and Labyrinth Black Ale (part of their limited release [...]
Reuters Pictures Man, this is a time of year I really hate. The Great American Beer Fest is rolling out in Denver, CO and Oktoberfest got off to a beery start yesterday overseas (as seen in the above photo). I will unfortunately be attending neither, but given the choice, I’m not sure if I would [...]
