Crux Shakeside Stout

December 18, 2020 by Erik

What is a Hybrid Milk Stout? Many big marketing words in the description on the can, but in the end it’s a stout with a wee bit of the mouthfeel associated with that milk stout lactose goodness. Not that I’m complaining…far from…this…

Migration Brewing Straight Outta Portland IPA

September 8, 2020 by Erik

With 69 IBUs and 7.3% abv I was expecting bitter and filled with grit, then the name and I figured it must be a grunge thing! Surprisingly Migration Brewing’s Straight Outta Portland IPA is neither of those things, it’s juicy and complex…

Georgetown Bodhizafa IPA

Mac & Jack’s Log Boom Pale Ale

August 22, 2020 by Erik

This one is clean, crisp and a bit bitter. The can suggests it’ll bring me some sunshine, but I might suggest these are best drunk with sunshine on a nice day. I’m glad I bought a 6-pack of these as they’ll go…

Anyone who considers themselves a true fan of hoppy beer has had some of this stalwart at least once in the last few years.  They used a thrift store electric football game to add hops continually and slowly to the wort, I…

Luponic Distortion IPA Series | Firestone Brewing

August 15, 2020 by Erik

A beer that aims for new flavors with nothing but clever mixing of hops! What could go wrong? While I’ve had some juicy hoppy beers before this one is pale and weak and reminds me of cucumber. Erik disappointed. I’m afraid to…
