Beer Review: Leinenkugel Oktoberfest

The Oktoberfest from Jacob Leinenkugel Brewing Company doesn’t
really fit now into the technical definition of a craft beer. But, it is a beer
and I thought that I would check it out anyway. This 5.1% ABV and 20 IBU Marzen
has been brewed for over five generations and with it featuring Munich, Pale
and Caramel Malts along with four specialty hops; they have to be doing
something right. Let’s see what it has to offer.

Beer Review: Dogfish Head Punkin Ale

I decided to check out another pumpkin beer and this time it
is the Punkin Ale from Dogfish Head Craft Brewery. I don’t usually do a lot of
pumpkin beers, but this caught my eye. It comes in with an ABV of 7% and at an
IBU level of 28. With it being brewed with real pumpkin, brown sugar, allspice,
cinnamon and nutmeg, it has all the makings of what one would want in their
pumpkin beer.

Beer Review: Boulevard Tropical Pale Ale

Taking a look at the Tropical Pale Ale from the Boulevard
Brewing Company, a 5.9% ABV and 45 IBU Pale Ale that is a collaboration between
Boulevard and Florida’s Cigar City Brewing. Their goal, combine a balanced pale
ale with the bright and refreshing flavors of both grapefruit and passion fruit
and then accent it with juicy, citrusy hops.

Beer Review: Guinness Black Lager

This is a look at the Guinness Black Lager which is a Euro
Dark Lager that comes in at a 4.5% ABV and is cold brewed with roasted barley. Introduced
in 2010, this newer product is aimed at young men who prefer chilled, bottled lagers to pints of beer
and to those that may be interested in a dark beer but not their famous stout.
