Whats pouring?
Posted by Steph on Sunday, 31 January 2010
The beers with bubbles are as follows….
Green Flash West Coast IPA. Probably actually a double IPA, but who really counts any more?
Craftsman Heavenly Hefeweizen. Creamy, citrus-y, wheat-y goodness.
Anchor Bock Beer. Getting ready for spring by drinking a great seasonal brew from Anchor in SF- a dark, slightly smokey lager. The style is usually brewed to welcome spring in German parts of the world, its a little lighter than winter brews but stronger than those made for summer sessioning.
Ballast Point Three Sheets Barley Wine. Aged in French oak Syrah barrels, brilliant.
Firestone Walker Velvet Merkin. Oatmeal stout, 25% aged in bourbon barrels, only 5.5% abv, do have it with dessert.
On the cask front, well we only have two. We plowed through cask beer last night for 30th on 30th like…um, something that goes away really really really fast. The good news is that what we do have for this evening and tomorrow night are two delicious brews…
Ballast Point Sea Monster Stout. Imperial Stout brewed with Cafe Calabria coffee. Ballast says this monster is your friend. I say he is strong as hell so be nice to him. Either way, he tastes good.
Rock Bottom La Jolla Old Curmudgeon Imperial Porter. Old Curmudgeon rules the underworld of imperial porters, if you haven’t had it, change that. You can get it here or at the brew pub in La Jolla and sometimes at other places too.
