Beer Review: Christian Moerlein Wild Hunt

Wild Hunt from Christian Moerlein Brewing is a limited Black IPA that seems to have been released in limited availability and finding it proved to be a nice surprise. Although I had a couple of issues with the labeling of it, the beer itself was a pleasant surprise for sure. This 6% ABV Black IPA had a nice balance of the malts and the hops which pulled the beer together nicely. Check out my video here to see and hear my other thoughts on this Cascadian ale.

Beer Review: Boulevard Tell-Tale Tart

From time to time I like to enjoy a sour ale, and for this review I decided to look at the Tell-Tale Tart from Boulevard Brewing which is located in the “Show Me” state of Missouri. This 6.2% ABV and 10 IBU ale does bring some nice flavor and tartness which of course is to be expected, but it also adds a nice mellowing effect on the palate that provides a nicer finish than expected. Check out my review here to see my other thoughts on this beer.

Beer Review: To0l Gose To Hollywood

Sometimes it’s the look of a beer design that catches your eye, and that was the case for me with this one from To0l Brewing and their Gose to Hollywood. This sour Gose ale comes in at 3.8% ABV from the Denmark brewer and despite being said to be a good summer beer; a good Gose can be drank all year round. Check out my video to see how it compares.

Beer Review: Moody Tongue Steeped Emperor's Lemon Saison

Out of Chicago comes Moody Tongue Brewing and this is a look at their Steeped Emperor’s Lemon Saison, a 6.3% ABV Saison or Farmhouse Ale. The beer is described as carrying the flavors of a lemon meringue pie along with the aromatics of Meyer lemons. Now as a kid, I used to love lemon meringue pie so I am definitely interested in seeing how this one plays out. Check out the video to see what I think of this one.

Beer Review: Labatt Blue

So I had a Labatt Blue left in the fridge so I figured why not do a review? This Canadian Pilsner has an ABV of 5% and an IBU level of 12, so like many lagers hoppiness is at a low with this North American Adjunct. Labatt Blue from Labatt Brewing is the largest selling Canadian beer and is also now a part of the AB InBev family. I’m not expecting much, but let’s see how it compares. Check out the video to gather my thoughts.

Beer Review: Heineken Lager Beer

I don’t often drink a lot of macro beers, but will do so from time to time. And I realized that I have never done a review on Heineken Lager Beer, so I figured why not. This Dutch beer has been around since 1873, so history is definitely on its side as far as being a proven lager. At 5% ABV it does also make an easy one to session which is never a bad thing. So with that all being said check out my video here on this beer and to hear and see my overall thoughts.

Beer Review: Highland Early's Hoppy Wheat Ale

Asheville, North Carolina, home of Highland Brewing Company and this is a look at their Early’s Hoppy Wheat Ale. I must admit, this style has actually got me more involved with trying more wheat ales, which at one point I found to be kind of hum drum. This ale comes in at an ABV of 5% making it a highly sessionable level beer. I was pleased by the aroma and taste dually on this one, and it can be a fitting one for spring. But I don’t want to give too much away, so check out my review to gather my other thoughts on this American pale wheat ale.

Dark Horse Kamikaze Kaleidoscope - Beer Review #495

Kamikaze Kaleidoscope from Dark Horse Brewing out of Michigan is a Witbier offering from the brewer that comes in at a sessionable 8% ABV. At 16 IBU bitterness is not a concern, and its availability runs from May to August bringing in a desired refreshing quality for those warmer months. Brewer’s comments include that drinkers can expect a subtle flavors of orange and lemon along with a big mouthfeel from the wheat and a slight tartness due to the Wit used. What did think of this beer? Check out my video here to see.

New Belgium Whizbang - Beer Review #494

Whizbang from New Belgium Brewing is their hoppy American blonde ale that comes in with an ABV of 5.7% and features the use of Mosaic, Nugget, Simcoe, UK Admiral, and Centennial hops that are set against a malty backbone to create a flavored taste explosion as described from the brewer. The availability of the beer is that of a rotating one, so availability is limited. Check out my video to see my thoughts on this beer.

Sierra Nevada Beer Camp Golden IPA - Beer Review #493

It seems Beer Camp is already in session for Sierra Nevada as they have released their Beer Camp Golden IPA for 2017. This American IPA comes in at 6.5% ABV, 50 IBU, and is described as being citrus-heavy with the hops. Wheat malt was used to create a light, dry body. Being served up as a spring seasonal, let’s see how it compares.
