Had a chance to knock off a few more tonight. Special thanks to one of Beth's friends (Stacey), who joined us this afternoon (into night) - allowing me to tick a few more off the list. Good mix of beers here.
La Trappe Dubbel (Rating = 4.0)
Thanks to the Dutch monks brewing this beer, we can now enjoy this around the world. Tastes a lot like a Belgium beer, but with Dutch influences. Nice beer, sweet finish. Very nice.
Zywiec Porter (Rating = 2.5)
So, I've been to Poland a couple of different times. I have been lucky enough to be in both Warsaw and Krakow. In both places, I sampled a few beers. Zywiec was one of them - nothing special, but ok. Poland needs something to hang their hat on, right? This porter was simply not good. Had the right measurements and set up, but just not good. It was ok going down, but the finish was bad. No other word for it - too bitter, just a bad beer. Sorry folks, no need to hop a flight to Poland for this one.
Boont Amber Ale (Rating = 3.5)
An American brew, hailing from California, this is a nice little beer. Strong brown color, nice fruity taste - nice beer. Not something that knocks your socks off, but something not to shabby nonetheless.
Beers down: 21
Beers to go: 980
Here is the updated spreadsheet.
