Rogue Dead Guy Ale

Wedding Beer #4

Last of the beers that Mandy's brother bought for us.

I used to drink a decent amount of this a few years ago. Its still enjoyable.

Goose Island Honker's Ale

From Joe Drinks Dinner and Stuff

Not bad, not great. I wouldn't turn it down, but I wouldn't buy it myself.

Sam Adams Rustic Saison

From Joe Drinks Dinner and Stuff

Compared to the other beers at the intern event for work (e.g., Bud Light, Corona Light, etc.), this was stellar.

I don't think I'd go out of my way to get this, but it was pretty good for being included in the summer mix pack.

Avery - Karma

From Joe Drinks Dinner and Stuff

Well this was disappointing. The malts come through in the taste more than the yeast does. In fact, I probably wouldn't have guessed it was supposed to be a belgian pale ale had the bottle not said it. Its inoffensive though. So at least its got that going for it. Definitely not getting this again.

Port City - Monumental IPA

From Joe Drinks Dinner and Stuff

Well, I'm a little disappointed in this after the porter, which I thought was phenomenal. Of course, this was a single, so who knows how long it may have been sitting on the shelf. I'll give it another try out at a bar sometime, but I won't be picking up a six pack unless I know how long its been sitting there.

It was more malty/caramely than bitter.
