Flying Dog - Secret Stash 2012

From Joe Drinks Dinner and Stuff


"A celebration of Maryland’s agricultural roots, each year’s batch of Secret Stash reflects the season’s harvest. This year, our Harvest Ale is an American-Style Wheat Ale brewed with local wheat and malted rye, along with local Cascade and Chinook hops."

This is far superior to last year's brew that had potatoes and a bunch of other stuff that made it taste... interesting. 

Not sure how much rye is in here (can't really taste it), but the cascade hops definitely are present. Reminds me of a lighter Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. Perfectly unoffensive.

DC Brau - El Hefe

From Joe Drinks Dinner and Stuff


Not as much of a "hefeweizen" flavor as I remember. Its more like a happy middle ground between a hefeweizen and an american wheat ale. Its good. I wouldn't buy another bottle, but I'd get it on draft again.

Lost Rhino - Wild Farmwell Wheat Ale

From Joe Drinks Dinner and Stuff


Sort of a cross between an American wheat ale and a hefeweizen. Super cloudy. Eh. I like El Hefe by DC Brau better for a local hybrid wheat ale.

Boulevard - Wheat Ale

From Joe Drinks Dinner and Stuff


This is actually really great for a wheat ale. Maybe a slight hint of lemon to it. It drinks a lot easier than Oberon for me

Smuttynose Summer Weizen Ale

From Joe Drinks Dinner and Stuff


Eh. This is pretty bland. Which is probably what I needed on a 95 degree day.

Souther Tier - Hop Sun

From Joe Drinks Dinner and Stuff


I basically chugged this when I got home late from work before grilling pizzas. Not the best chugging beer. It was pretty tasty though.

Bells Oberon Ale

From Joe Drinks Dinner and Stuff


The last beer left from the wedding. Does this mean the honeymoon period is over?

An inoffensive wheat ale. A little on the sweet side, but I think it goes down really easy. A really good brew for the summer.

Lagunitas A Little Sumpin Sumpin

This is a pretty delicious beer. Sweet and citrusy.

Goose Island 312

Light and slightly wheaty. A lot better than the white ale

Bonus Mandy Thoughts:
It's paricularly goosey and islandy. Apparently those are good are good qualities that I'm looking for.

Three Floyds Gumballhead

IMG_0041

My first Three Floyds beer. Imbibed on our trip to Chicago. I was fairly excited.

A fairly hoppy wheat beer. I don't get any bubblegum aftertaste but it's light and refreshing. Good times.
