Hangar 24 Helles Lager has that cold conditioned crispness and a bubbly bite. Not 'til the sweet tang of the BBQ sauce smeared on a taste of 'The Times' does the bitterness give you a shy wink from across the room.
Four Headed Hefe, from Craft Brewing Co, is surprisingly tasty (mostly surprising because the staff told me that was the Helles Lager). Belgian in character with low carbonation, banana and cloves in taste and nose. BBQ sauce killed its complexity and left it tasting like a bud. While delicate, the body is fuller than a Pils.
Bootlegger's Golden Chaos: Heeeyyyyy Baby, you can't make sense outta me. Banana cloudiness but a tricky lil' devil to describe, the 8.5 makes you think twice. A certain sweetness permeates, making you feel at home, but damn you, BBQ sauce, must you challenge everything? |

Bootlegger's BLACK PHOENIX - What is this? A robust malty chocolate covered decaf coffee bean rising from the ashes of the chipotle fire pit? THIS is a damn tasty brew. Not overly heavy, a middle weight champ, reclaiming his title...kicking that BBQ @ss!
Speakeasy's Prohibition Ale - hellllooo my hoppy clear eyed Red Friend! I do so love it when we meet, like this, in private....
And Speakeasy's Double Daddy: Aye, Papi! You should ask permission, first. You know what I'm saying? Slapping me around like that. Good thing you got that Big Malty Back Bone to you back you up.
Until the next time, Beer Lover!
