MrSpooks Profile

Damn good hoppy lager, with a pale malt layered complexity coupled with notes of apple and a touch of cut grass. Hops offer up a good dose of grapefruit, stone fruit, and a touch of mango, with a clean, modest bitterness on the finish. Just a great pint.

Somber Knight from Mean King

7.4/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 7.5 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7.5

Very piney on the back end, with a welcome bitterness clinging to the palate long into the fade. Notes of grapefruit, citrus pith, and a touch of stone fruit on the front end. Good black IPA in a town where it seems like every brewery has a solid black IPA.

Very enjoyable Dunkel, mild notes of caramel with a touch of toasted bread, cocoa, and hazelnut, accented by a red apple undertone and a touch of yeast. Finishes with a firm but negotiable bitterness. Nice pint.

Peachy Little Thing from Sierra Nevada Brewing Company

4.9/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 4 Texture 3 Overall 3

Takes the subtle peach notes of Juicy Little Thing and plows over you with them like an eighteen wheeler. Too sweet, which gives the peach an air of artificiality even though don’t think any “natural” flavors were used. First Little Thing beer I outright dislike.

Lager from Wrexham Lager Beer Company

4/10 — Appearance 5 Aroma 3.5 Flavor 3.5 Texture 6 Overall 3.5

Crappy pale lager, but it’s got a TV show tie-in so I guess it’s noteworthy? Looks like it lost a point off its ABV from the UK version. Craft-brewed light lager. Mac from It’s Always Sunny would love it. Hopefully Rob McElhenney doesn’t.
