    All the credit on this one does go to Jersey... to my trader for hooking me up. :slight_smile:

    Meh. Tastes like a normal porter with a slight hint of bourbon. Nothing special.

    Side by side. Very similar I must say other than slight color difference. Wondering if I can enter in the Saison category though in the AHA competition. Anybody know? Is HF Anna even "to style"??

    I'm not a big hefeweizen guy, but when I want one, my go-to beer is the Weihenstephaner.
    BUT I must try others every now and again, to keep my beer palate sharp!

    So: Schneider Weisse Tap 7 Unser Original

    A classic hefeweizen for sure, but it must suck being compared to the Weihenstephaner (by guys like me) - you just don't stand a chance. I'm sure other fans of the style may disagree, so I mean no disrespect to individual taste preferences, but the Weihenstephaner remains my first choice in a hefeweizen.
    Didn't stop me from enjoying this though... :wink:

    One of my favorite restaurants in the Austin area (Torchys) just started carrying Oskar Blues. Ended up with an Old Chub and a chicken fried steak taco. Also scored a free Oskar Blues koozie and Old Chub sticker.

    Just enjoyed a Tap 7 myself and found myself wondering about Tap 7 vs. Weihenstephaner's Helles. I don't know...I might go with the Schneider...

    Weihenstephaner can be slightly sweet, especially noticeable after a few. Schneider not so much.
    On the other hand there is a lot of old Schneider on the shelves and that doesn't help its rating.

    Doing a little cellar cleaning. This is a Hair of the Dog - De Proef collaboration beer I picked up last year. Very nice. Kind of like a Flemish Red with a few of the same flavors as a Belgian Tripel.
