It's bomb. Starts as a typical lager then the delight of straight banana bread comes in.

 

To me this is key.  I can't stand the flavored beers where it is overpowering.

Yeah I think most typical beer drinkers (which I am NOT) would definitely enjoy one of these. The banana bread is subtle enough not to be a glorified juice, but not so subtle to where it just tastes like "beer".

Thinking of picking up some Best Damn Root Beer and see how it compares to Not Your Father's Root Beer.

Doesn't hold a candle to NYF

Starting off with Sierra Nevada Beer Camp Tropical IPA. Not bad, I get more orange than tropics fruit (Papaya and mango are listed). The hops are more in the nose than in the taste. Pretty clean finish. About 7%, so that's nice. I'm more of a centennial hop person, but would drink this again

Has anyone tried NYF's Ginger Ale? I've had plenty of the Root Beer, wondering if their Ginger Ale is as good.

Friend of mine picked me up a 6-pack of Bell's Hopslam Ale, one of my top favorite beers. If you guy haven't tried it, I highly recommend it. Brewed with six different types of hops and honey, it creates a very balanced, citrusy, and easy to drink IPA. At 10% ABV, you only need two or three to feel a good buzz. I purposely set them away so I can drink them once the tournament starts.

Beer coming out of the fermentation chamber today and into the keg...should be ready for the NCAA's.

This is one of my favorites too. I missed the release for cans this year but caught it on tap once.

I tried Illusive Traveler this weekend, their grapefruit shandy. I'm a big fan of Traveler's pumpkin beer, Jack-O-Traveler, so I decided to give it a shot. Pretty good, very grapefruity! Definitely a good one for the beer drinker who doesn't like that beer taste very much. Not hoppy, not bitter, but still recognizable as a beer.

Absolutely brilliant beer.

Throw back day, honey brown and killion's red.

Tried Henry's Hard Orange Soda.  Not bad; like a Sunkist with a slight beer kick at the end.

[JaybobHoosier 11,928]

Tried Sam Adams Cold Snap on tap the other day. Not too bad at all. Light beer with a grapefruit peelish after taste.

Ironically, that seems to be the only hard thing she likes these days. :(

[JaybobHoosier 11,928]

Had CoopersEye Pale Ale (not that great), Boulevard Unfiltered Wheat (really liked), and Schlafly APA (not too bad).  Didn't have anything else cold besides a Michelob Light.  Tastes just like Bud Light, dirty water :)
