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?!

Oskar Blues: Gordon. Ale


Mmmm. Oskar Blues can do no wrong. Thick, tasty, hoppy, and a great ale. I'd almost say it's an imperial ale as it's 8.7% and pretty thick. It's up with double bastard or dead guy in body and mouthfeel. Good beer for $3 a can, I'd recommend it for anyone who wants a good thick ale with good flavor and a decent bite.

Oskar blues - Ten FIDY

Oskar blues - Imperial Stout, aka Ten FIDY
http://www.oskarblues.com/the-brews/ten-fidy

OMfreakingG this is some good shhtufff! Seriously, I've found beer "crack" on tap.

It's thick like an oatmeal stout, hoppy like an IPA, roasty like a porter and all with the take no prisoners kind of assault on your taste buds you expect from a kick a$$ imperial. I will be getting more of this.

Great Divide - Yeti Imperial Stout

Great Divide - Yeti Imperial Stout

Nom, Nom, Nom. Munkey like Imperial stout!

After trying the oak aged version of this I'd been halfheartedly looking for the "plain" imperial stout. Good stuffseses here, roasty, sweet, chocolaty, good thick mouthfeel,with a dark aromatic head that stuck around for most of the glass.

Goose Island - Bourbon County Stout

Goose Island - Bourbon County Stout

OMG, beer heaven has this on tap. Go get some NOW!!!

This pours thick, like syrup. Dark brown head and an nice but pungent sweet stouty aroma. The head is fairly thin, wonder if it's been aged?! (It is, I should have read the bottle...)

Oh wow, first sip is amazing! It's sweet and thick, but smooth and there's some hoppy thing going on in the background. And the smell! It's intoxicating, and not just because it's beer... It smells sort of like beer kettle corn.

Mmmmm, second sip is just more awesomeness. This is an imperial stout. It's one of those rare brew's I'd concede to being on par with my coveted brew, the Tard Munkey. I'm going to have to stick a few in the cellar...


Widmer - Cherry Oak Doppelbock

Widmer - Cherry Oak Doppelbock

This beer disappointed me. It was fairly blah and not in the, "wow this beer has great balance" sort of way. It just really didn't taste like much. Didn't really smell like much either.

I let it warm up just to make sure I didn't miss something. Still blah, won't be buying this one again. Kinda sad that our first Widmer review is negative, they have some other brew's I like.
