Everything Lone Pint

I had a Torpedo Shark I think it was the other day and thought it was ok. It had a kind of chalky finish which took away from the rest of the beer, but I'm looking forward to trying the rest of their lineup.

 

I thought Torpedo Shark tasted pretty decent. Better than average.

Have yet to find Yellow Rose on tap.

 

I was able to sample Tornado Shark and Yellow Rose at Growler's and I have to say that I am VERY impressed. I think they have the potential to hit the market with Karbach caliber beers.

 

I use the word chalky when the taste is dry and powdery. It's a taste I remember that would get in my mouth when cleaning chalkboards/erasers.

 

I can see how you can get that from Tornado Shark. I definitely got that chalky/powdery taste and diacetyl from Jabberwocky. I was not a fan of that.

 

Nobi put Yellow Rose on tap yesterday.

 

Where on the Northside can one find these brews? I've yet to see it anywhere

And don't you still live in Magnolia/The Woodlands area? You could always stop by the brewery for a tour/tasting

 

Thanks. Didn't realize there was a list. Ill have to check out that Two Mules place since its near by. I suppose I could take a trip back to the hometown one weekend lol

 

I'd read here that Yellow Rose was delicious, but was not unprepared all the same. I just ordered a pint on blind faith at WF Montrose and now I'm so tempted to get a growler.

 

At D&T they said this time around they used hop pellets for Yellow Rose. The first release was with cones. There are plenty of great IPA's with pellets, and Yellow Rose is still damn good, so it does not bother me.

 

It turns out this batch used whole flower hops too. They ran out on their last batch but another brewery in town sold their supply of whole flower mosaic hops to Lone Point, which were used in the batch that's out now. The next batch will use pellets.

 

Yellow Rose is back on tap at Nobi! Definitely going to get a growler to go.

 

I can't wait for them to start canning/bottling in the future.. I hope they can.... I will buy Gentleman's Relish regularly.
