Friday Beer Tasting

So I just finished my tasting. I have full reviews on the three that I have tasted tonight.

and Tonight's Selection is...

Reviews:

Newport Storm Hurricane Pale Ale

Color: Amber/Golden

Clearity: Near Transparent

Nose: mostly bread, some nut, vegetive(asparagus)

Taste: the front is very clean but the middle you get a nice bite of hops and finishes with a very dry hop and tannin sensations almost begging for another sip.

Recommendations: Pizza or Fried Chicken or something breaded and starchy definitely a good beer with friends on game day.

Long Trail: Double Bag

Color: Burnt Orange

Clearity: Clear and clean

Nose: Citrus (grapefruit), Earthy almost like Cilantro

Taste: Crispy sour sensation first, some hops but not much more creamy then bitter and almost irresistibly smooth… If you drink mass produced cardboard water for some reason this MAY help you see the light.

Recommendations: Grilled Steaks or Seafood even some Grilled Portabellos anything seared and flame broiled would fit this amazingly.

Dog Fish Head: Olde School Barley Wine

Color: Red like seriously Fire Red

Clearity: Almost Clear

Nose: Sweet makes me think of Juice Fruit gum. also more Starchy but very sweet.

Taste: First it's like a sweet white wine then you get a small hint of hops. After that you get a big burn from the 15% alcohol

Recommendations: (this is straight off the bottle and I have to share it) Open Bottle, Pour into two snifters, Enjoy, OR Walk hand in neck into the middle of the woods. Use a shovel and dig a 2x2 hole three feet deep. Seal in a plastic bag. Place in hole & Pack with dirt. Memorize location & leave. Return exactly one year later . Dig up bottle, open & enjoy
