I gave this beer every chance for success. Chilled glass, salty snack, big game on the tube. Parked myself in my comfy tasting/ sports viewing chair. Nice golden pour, nice foam head. They call it a strong beer at 5.6, but only just. Unfortunately, despite all the...
What the hell is a Rauchbier you ask. Well let me tell you. Rauchbier is a German-style beer brewed with smoked malt. It can be any style, but usually it is a lager. Smoked beer. Maybe this is one beer my tokin’ tee totaling friend IF might go for, he is the...

White stout, what will they think of next? Brewed without roasted malts, but with lots of coffee, vanilla and lactose. You won’t be surprised to hear this is not your typical stout. First of all I had to figure out what the name of the beer is. Bold text on the front...
