Sierra Nevada - Glissade

Sierra Nevada - Glissade

This one didn't do it for me. A little too sweet with an alcoholy taste? Not sure what I'm tasting. Drinkable for sure, but I prefer some of their other brews. Mmmmm Sierra Nevada Celebration ale... And shouldn't bigfoot ale be out about now?!

Dunno what else to say, try it for yourself and see what you think?!

Sierra Nevada - Pale Ale

Sierra Nevada - Pale Ale

Usually, when I can't decide what I want, I grab a Sierra Nevada. It's just always a good choice. Crisp, clean, hoppy, malty, good body and mouthfeel, good aroma, solid head, good carbonation - It's a great all around beer.

Plus, I think they have the easiest bottles to clean and prep for homebrew use.

Sierra Nevada - Bigfoot Ale, 2009 release

Bigfoot Ale. Hoppy Barlywine style Ale.

I like how they went back to the original label graphic.


I got a weird look from the cashier for buying 3 six packs and a doughnut. Trying to explain that it only comes out once a year didn’t help me. Oh well, I have beer!


Ok, I think this is more of an Imperial IPA than the dogfish head 90 Minute IPA. Bigfoot seems to have more hop presence. But to be fair I really like both and I think they’re in the same “class” of beer.
Thick hoppy, good head, smells… like hoppy sugar cane. Just the right amount of carbonation, smooth finish, ah good beer! And there’s 5 more!

Bigfoot Ale, 199? release

Bigfoot Ale 199?

Had this at the Archer Ale House. I like barlywine! The extended aging didn't subdue the hops as much as I expected, this beer could still be mistaken for an Imperial IPA.

'08 Anniversary Ale

Sierra Nevada's latests anniversary ale tastes like chewing on a whole cascade hop (yes I know what that tastes like...).
