Have you had their Sunset Wheat? Two words for you... Fruity Pebbles. I challenge anyone to taste it (heck, even SMELL it) and not be reminded of the cereal. A fantastic warm weather brew. And if you doubt my opinion, the expert panel at the 2008 Great American Beer Festival gave it gold as the best wheat beer. One of my favorite wheats. <BR/><BR/>On the topic of 50/50 beers, I have a homebrew that just turned out TOO big in every respect, to the point where it simply wasn't drinkable. We had a keg of the stuff, and in a drunken Superbowl party this year, decided to try to water it down with some Michelob Ultra. Despite how it might sound, that makes this utterly challenging homebrew quite tasty and drinkable! <BR/><BR/>The moral of the story is quite simple... don't knock it till you try it.zoesjourneyhomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01808742596251934548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2869083807077103482.post-73241464682557920662009-03-20T15:00:00.000-07:002009-03-20T15:00:00.000-07:00Leinenkugels?

I like black and tan but never think to pour one. <BR/><BR/>Funny how Leinenkugel's serves the mix. Is that the only way they can sell the two?Church Keyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06569761501381296361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2869083807077103482.post-36475969932959148362009-03-20T08:42:00.000-07:002009-03-20T08:42:00.000-07:00felix - there is no "p" in hamster. it's our jacke...felix - there is no "p" in hamster. it's our jacked up oral vernaculars that add the accented "p" at the end of the first syllable.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2869083807077103482.post-18998696979452542562009-03-20T08:21:00.000-07:002009-03-20T08:21:00.000-07:00This is time well spent and words well used.

Here's a challenge for you though, in case you ever feel the need to prove your manhood to the world. If the Extra Pale Ale is too bready, and the IPA is too hoppy, would a 50/50 mix of the two yield perfection? Or something that is remotely drinkable? <BR/>This isn't a joke. I find Leinenkugels (sp?) Berry Weiss way too sweet and fruity, and their Honey to be just "ehhh". But up in Wisconsin, they make a "Honey Berr", a 50/50 mix of the two, and I'll be the first to admit, the end product is greater than the sum of its parts. <BR/>[sir scott throws down gauntlet]zoesjourneyhomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01808742596251934548noreply@blogger.com
