    Since you can't review a black and tan:

    A - straw colored body with fluffed top. sticks and stays well. bcbs darkness envelopes. dark head at the point of penetration. head dissipates shifts to coffee visual.

    S - alcohol wood stick on top from the grisette. vanilla maybe caramel as well? expected more from the goosie here.

    T - wood again and there is the alcohol. all sorts of complexity in there from the VT gem. There is a tart yeastiness here that I've not noticed in the BCBS before but maybe this is the result of some interaction with the grisette.

    M - upped carbonation from the grisette. alcohol on the throat.

    O - its not terrible. probably something i'd only put together every couple of months.

    Narrative:

    splish splash I was takin' a bath
    Long about a saturday night, yeah
    A rub dub, just relaxin' in the tub
    Thinkin' everythin' was alright.

    Same as last night Narwhal, i got a feeling my post will be the same for a while unless the retailers run out.

    That fancy glass! I should have tried that, would have saved my drain the trouble of drinking that Anna/AFtW mess of a combination.

    Do you think LeBleu + Anna would taste like Blueberry muffins? I need to get rid of this saison, people don't seriously like this style do they?

    Pssh everyone knows Anna and AFtW is a terrible B&T combination.

    Lets leave this to the professionals ok? Jkjk.

    In all seriousness though I hate saisons but they make a great base for a black and tan. I buy them just for that.

    Wait didn't you dedicate a whole week to your hatred of this style?

    Thinking about a can of CCB Florida Cracker tonight, and looking forward to it. Haven't had a wit in a while, it's a nice change of pace.

    I did an entire MONTH of reviews dedicate to the vilification of farmhouses.

    My palate was jankier than that machine that Urkel uses to change into Stefan.
