Interesting Fact
A bog is a wetland type that accumulates acidic peat, a deposit of dead plant material. Learn more on the Wikipedia entry. Even more interesting is that bog snorkelling is popular in England and Wales and has even produced the associated sport of mountain bike bog snorkelling.
Ben R says sour patch kids?
February 14th, 2008
I feel like a big negative nancy because I’ve started brew52 with mostly bad reviews of beers I don’t like, I think things will turn around when we exit winter beer season soon.
This is another one of those negative reviews, and even though it’s Surly, I can’t give the beer good marks. This beer is awful. On the way down it makes the back of your jaw tingle like sour patch kid, not something I’m looking for in a beer.
We tried this at the Blue Nile and thank god Erin and I only shared one, rather than each getting our own. The Rush River Unforgiven Amber Ale was excellent though
