What Northeast beer are you drinking now? (2021)

Typical Allagash that makes between-the-styles beers so well. Is it a porter? Is it a stout? Is it a black IPA? It's more subtle than North Sky that they call stout, which is not.

 

I had a pint of that when I was at the Allagash brewery a couple of weeks ago. I really liked it and was bummed they weren't selling any cans of it.

 

Blueprint Brewing (Harleysville, PA) - For the Love of... An Oktoberfest beer that was also brewed for a charible event for a local Veterinarian Hospital

 

Was on call for work today, and as it was busy, I just got home awhile ago. Now enjoying VG, which tasting delicious as I settle in to watch SNF!

 

Working my way through the TH haul. BoC not wowing me like it did the first couple times but was still very nice. Can says 4.8% but site said 5.3%.

 

The Kellerbier is quite nice and up to par with some of the heavy lager hitters in the area. Would need to side by side with JA's Franconian (do they still make that?) but I really enjoyed this.

 

I won the cribbage match, obviously.

Finally ticking KJJJJ but not blown away. I'll sit on the other 3 cans a couple weeks. Very GGG followed a similar path where I didn't love it super fresh but loved it at the 3-4 wk mark. I think these are all overboard with the hops.

 

I've never heard of or seen it before but found it in two different chain supermarkets today. My guess is that they made a decent amount of this beer to hit the distro.

 

What did I do on my day off? Why, worked of course. Duh. Can’t turn down that OT. Last can and I’m sad to see it go, this was really well made. Lots of crackery snap and, yes, just a subtle touch of brine.

 

Smells fucking amazing. Tastes even better. Wow. Danky as all hell, nice citric taste, pillow feel, smooth. OH hits a home run on this one.


Premo + Guru (RIP) = just….wow.

 

Tin Barn - Jasper's Juicebox

Grapefruit and melon. No bitterness. Signature Tin Barn.

 

Tree House Idle Mind, Vienna Lager. No score yet cuz I'm literally drinking it right now. Beautiful beer tho and first couple glugs mighty tasty.

 

Moat Mountain Brewing Co (North Conway, NH) - Boneshaker Brown Ale. There should be more brown ales.

 

One beer tonight so let’s make it worth it, a 13% IIPA collab between two local-to-me breweries, Secatogue and DUBCo. This is actually not too boozy at all, and I’m tasting that Nelson too. Nice malt backbone to it, better than I was expecting.

Absolute perfection…the voice and the beat.

 

Nice pale ale from Treehouse, featuring Motueka and Citra.

 

Second bottle of The King from Tree House. Not quite as good as a couple months ago, but pretty damn good nonetheless. I'm sure I'm not the only one who's had some baaad banana beer, but the conditioned on dried banana thing really works for me.

 

This smells amazing. Not quite Schlenkerla Märzen but not far off. The taste is good but doesn’t quite match the smell. The smoke is fast and quick and mostly a burnt chocolate finish. It’s very good, but that smell raised my expectations a bit.

 

Enjoying OEC Triskel
A lovely lager
Cheers
