I… I don’t know what this is. It’s… sort of beer-ish? Poured with the heavy, frothy head which subsided very quickly. Aroma of spices, but not as spice-fronted on tasting. Reviews say the chai is first but I don’t think I’ve ever had chai tea so I’ll have to take their word on it. It is quite sweet, more like a spiced brown ale than a stout, probably due to the mix.
It might take me a while to get through this six pack. The wife didn’t even want to try it after smelling it, and she’s a sucker for anything with an owl on the label (or any part of anything really).
Radler is another name for shandy, and shandies are beers mixed with a soft drink like sparkling lemonade, ginger beer, or soda. Some of the European shandies are apparently pretty good, and the Traveler products from Boston Beer aren’t horrible for what they are.
In my job we’d probably have it classified as a “flavored malt beverage” like Mike’s or Twisted Tea. So yeah.
I’ve never had a FMB I’ve liked, so I prefer to avoid them if possible.
No pictures because that’s rude in a public setting, but I had Founders Kentucky Breakfast Stout.
Exceptionally good beer, absolutely the best stout I have ever had in my life. It’s pretty much everything I would have like out of the regular Breakfast Stout I posted a little while ago. The flavors are quite balanced and it is smooth.
It’d be a solid 9 out of 10 from me, it was great.
I’d probably never buy it again though, that shit’s expensive.
Beers I usually have on hand would be Grolsch, Spaten, Blithering Idiot. Joined a craft beer club (get 12 per month) and one that 's stood out so far is 3rd Wave Sandstorm. Least favorite was Elderflower Sour -don’t remember brewer. Generally, I like a nice double bock, lager or ale, and an occasional Barleywine. Liquor is usually gin or scotch.
Not beer but I’m drinking this. I made it myself. Its a sugar wash fermented to about 16-18%. I then mixed it with blue jolly rancher drink mix and let the yeast fall out. Bottle and serve with sprite to cut it. Say 50/50
Its dirt cheap to make. I have 2 gallons of the stuff. Its tastes meh but thats ok because I made it and just like your own farts it doesnt bother me any.
Oh this is good. It’s a strong brew, but it’s not a disgusting punch in the throat like some IPAs can be. To me it smells like they used an obscene amount of hops, and the taste follows without tasting like you’re drinking the color green. It’s also still got the classic West Coast IPA trademarks, but has some NEIPA flair. I am so glad it doesn’t taste like fruit juice.
