Day 253 - Toasted Lager

A crazy weekend for football, but the Skins won an ugly one, and I got the grass cut, so my world is at peace tonight.

Didn't have any expectations, and had no clue what a "toasted lager" might be. It turns out it is a rather pleasant french-fry colored beer, mild malt, unassuming hops, and fresh finish. Suitable for sitting here watching SNF and not being distracted by my beer. Of course, Cullen is home for Fall Break and drinking my good stuff....

Full Name: Toasted Lager
Brewed By: Blue Point Brewing Co

Hum, typing is too distracting, football on TV.

Later..

Day 37 - Hoptical Illusion

Cullen is home for spring break, which provided a good excuse, aka necessity..., to add more beers to the pipeline. Now the more clever reader will pick up a clue to the type of beer this is, and no, it isn't like I am giving in to my tastebuds. Well, yes I am .....

Fact is, this a a darn good beer, and only put additional pressure to go all pale ales, but I did manage a number of other type in this purchase, just picked this one first. Cullen btw is having a different pale ale which is truly awesome, and will show up here in the very near future.

I'm not even going to try and describe this deliciousness, because I might create a rush to the stores and not be able to find it myself again. Another human trait is exposed - greed.... ;>)

My friend Rob suggested I keep a running list of my top 3 favorites, and when I have a better, kick one off. I will begin that tomorrow.
