It was ok though to drink beer with breakfast cause it was past nine and boy was it good. Great full beer that doesn’t over power. I don’t know my oatmeal stouts, I have maybe tried one other, this one makes me quite excited to try more.

Summit does it again

Been a long time summit EPA fan but haven’t really branched out to try many of their other flavors. I was way disappointed with the winter ale, the plum/raisin taste was nasty, but the maibock is especially great. Nice full flavor that leaves you wanting more. I found myself not being able to put the bottle down since I just wanted to keep tasting it. Too bad I only had one. So I am off to the liquor store for more!!

Cool label, poor taste

Flat earth has been really good to me but not with the warlock. I like the hops but can’t enjoy it with all the sweet. It’s like someone dumped a bunch of corn syrup into my beautiful beer. Why would you do such a thing??? I guess it’s just not for me.

A very good beer

I tasted Finnegan’s for the first time about a year ago and liked it quite a bit then. I was equally as pleased with the beer this time around as well. It’s got a familiar Summit taste, which I really dig, but a bit more mellow. In my book they get four stars just for giving so much money to charity but luckily the beer is good as well.

….I got nothin’

It’s a pilsner….not a bad one but i’m not a pilsner fan.

Looking forward to Finnegan’s.

Drinking it and loving it

The first time I ever had Lake superior ale was when I was in Duluth of all places. Even though I am much further away from the great lake it tastes just as good. A nice solid ale, can’t say anymore.

O.K.

Even though I was expecting bad things due to the plum, this beer wasn’t particularly great or bad. Nothing about it stood out to me and nothing was offensive. Maybe it’s the brand but it did have quite a bit of carbonation to it. Nothing to report really.

Not bad….at first

The first sip has the familiar Surly taste to it, which I for one am crazy for. But after you swallow you begin to taste all those cranberries Surly was talking about, that part I am not so crazy for. The beer was worth the experience but will definitely not have a place in my refrigerator.

A Farewell to Kings

Another fine beer in the flat earth catalog, possibly my favorite!!! Although i think this is due more to my love for prog rock. Sad but true, i am a recovering rush fan. I have moved on to finer prog music but i did have to break out the old “A Farewell to Kings” album while drinking this tasty beverage. They went together great.

raisinets anyone?

One sip will tell you that this is surely a winter beer with all the raisin flavor you could ask for. Really though, I don’t want any of that raisin in my beer. It is about this time that I start getting really sick of winter and maybe my seasonal discontent shows a bitter reflection upon my beer palate. Yet what I really need is a tall cold dark hoppy beer to end a hot summer day. Love ya Summit but better luck next winter.
