Souther Tier Gemini

This was okay. Pretty bitter, pretty sweet. I like their 2XIPA a lot better.

Souther Tier Cuvee Series Three

Oak aged, blend of two other beers according to the bottle/box.

Hmm. Its fairly thin. Pretty sweet. Its taste close to cherry cough syrup, with maybe a little hint of vanilla.

Not great.Not terrible. I wouldn't buy it again though.

Souther Tier Backburner - 2010

Not sure where I bought this (in November) as it was released in February. Shrug.

Pretty sweet. Only some slight bitterness in the finish. Decent.

Souther Tier Pumking

Southern Tier Creme Brulee Stout

Not sure what I thought this one would taste like.

I get a lot more hazelnut than I do vanilla. Its not bad though. Not great. Probably shouldn't have poured it to eat with a BLT.

Bonus Mandy Thoughts:
smells like it will go well with bacon. [long pause] it smells like it should taste like delicious butterscotch candy but it doesn't. [takes another sip] [grimaces] [smells again] [takes another sip] [long pause] [puts down the beer] i would have preferred a delicious piece of butterscotch candy.

like most of your beers, it smells better than it tastes. how about this? i don't like any of your beers. [pretty sure she wasn't serious].

Southern Tier 2XIPA

Pretty hoppy. Not surprising. Has a similar hop profile to 60 Minute IPA. Not as malty as 60 Minute IPA though. I'd recommend it.

Bonus Mandy Thoughts:
Also nailed the 60 Minute IPA comparison. A++ for her identification. "It tastes like most other unoffensive IPAs. But not as cute as my puppy."

Souther Tier - Cherry Saison

Mandy - "Its nasty", "A beer I finally hate!", "Tastes like its gone bad", "Definitely fermented and not in a good way", "I'm full of gems!"

For that last one she was not referring to these gals.

My review isn't quite as negative, but its certainly not glowing. Its drinkable. A little sour, only a faint hint of cherries. Just tastes like a slightly tart light ale. :shrug.
