I had a chance to have a couple of more that I had "in stock" last week before I went on a business trip. Neither was overwhelming, but they were ok. Here is the quick summary.
Lagunitas Maximus (Rating = 3.0)
I've had a few more of the beers from Lagunitas recently. They are all pretty hoppy (as I always mention, I'm not big into hops generally), but still pretty good. This was was similar. Definitely had some hops, but was pretty good. The description in the book was interesting. Apparently, it was going to be called "Hair of the Dog Ball Ale" or "Eye of the Dog", but then they changed their minds and called it Maximus. It was strong smelling, but ends kind of tart.
Union Jack IPA (Rating = 3.0)
This one is listed as a blond in this large book. I really don't understand some of the beers they put in this category - this is an IPA. Not bad either though. And not British either - from a US-based brewery.
That's it.
Beers Down: 81
Beers to go: 920
