More beer in a can (which is a good thing), and another from Hop Valley in Eugene, OR.  This is a brilliant beer that is a benchmark for the modern Northwestern IPA.  Great taste that is a bit citrusy and leaves your…

If I had such a thing as a house beer, from the very beginning this would be it.  Great taste, pairs with just about everything, and easy to drink… Make sure to swirl it before you finish the pour or else you’ll…

While I normally associate this beer with something to have on a relaxing summer afternoon it would seem that it works in the winter as well…now in can form.  Well hopped and made with grapefruit peel this is a brilliantly refreshing beer…

Tullamore DEW Irish Whiskey

November 27, 2017 by Erik
