    Põhjala - Forest Bänger

    Obviously I know Focal Banger very well, but I had never heard of Forest Bänger. Super intense smoky malts and juniper. Not for the faint of heart, no doubt about that.

    You know what, that is the second time I did that this week. I would like to blame it on auto fill because as soon as I type “brewed by”the rest fills. But we all know the truth—sometimes (most times) I do not have my shit together. The sad thing is that this was my first beer of the night! If it were my fifth or sixth drink then maybe I would have a valid excuse.

    All that said, my next beer will be a DIPA brewed by Triple Crossing. Unless of course I ended up typing Maine Beer Company.

    I did it again! It was brewed by Maine Beer Company. Not Triple Crossing. This is getting to be a sad thing.

    The OG - Julius. It still deserves every single one of its props. Legendary.

    I remember crawling out of windows at house parties, at PSU, circa 1995. Glorious times.

    ...it is so nice to be back home where I can better experience and review beers in a relaxed, relatively quiet setting...here's a revisit...

    Millstream Brewing Co. -- Schild Brau Amber
    Vienna-style lager
    ABV: 4.9%; Pouring temperature: 52 °F; bottling info: n/a

    [​IMG]

    3.81/5 rDev +5.5%
    look: 4.25 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.75

    Revisited November 07th, 2022

    Dark amber body, crystal clear; outstanding, slow-rising and dense carbonation; big head, soft and creamy texture, sticky, long lasting. Warm, inviting cracker aroma combined with a modest caramel note; very subdued hop spiciness. Moderate toasted grain flavor with a touch of caramel sweetness; low-key hop bitterness. Medium body; warm; smooth.

    The looks are very impressive and the aroma rich and inviting. The taste hits the style profile for a Vienna lager. The mouthfeel sticks the palate with a warm, modestly sweet feel.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Original ratings, scores, and review:

    4.0 3.5 3.75 3.75 3.75; overall: 3.71; rDev: +2.8%

    Crystal clear amber body with a thick, lasting, white head. Faint cereal-like aroma; bread crusts. Lightly toasted grain flavor with a smoothly bitter finish and softly warm malt flavor aftertaste. Medium body; clean and crisp.

    A very drinkable, respectable amber lager. Perhaps it won't blow you away, but it certainly won't disappoint you either. Nice and refreshing.

    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    ...good to be back in the 'Fortress of Solitude' today...no beer drinking, but was listening to a variety of older Van Morrison albums...
