Sippin' Suds

About a week ago, Kate and I decided to try some beers together and write a little diddy to share our thoughts on the crafty libations.  The following beers came from our local Marsh, which I believe is now called the Marketplace, in their newly installed 6 pack, mix-n-match section...enjoy!

Monty Python's Holy Grail Ale
A wonderful ale for all ale lovers!!! This beer is light and blond with a pleasantly strong kick...this is a smooth ale great for springtime sipping.  Also interesting is the note on the bottle which reads, "tempered over burning witches."
Ratings:
Zach: Punchy meets smooth…would definitely buy again
Kate: Tasty yet a tad overwhelming…would buy again

Buffalo Bill’s Brewery Oatmeal Stout, Blueberry
This was a nice surprise for a fruit labeled beer. Being much darker than I had originally expected, it tasted like a firm stout with a mild hint of, you guessed it, blueberry! A nice touch for a hot, summer day.
Ratings:
Zach: Fruity, tootie and a nice surprise…probably would not buy again
Kate: Very tasty! A nice blend of dark and fruity…definitely buy again, but not all the time

BBC's Nut Brown Ale
This is a classic, heavy, dark ale. It has a surprising punch of an almost toffee like flavor, but this is not overdone. Nut Brown Ale, an interesting name to say the least, is a very enjoyable sipping ale and quite well rounded. This would go great with a medium-rare porter house steak with a side of potatoes.
Ratings:
Zach: Heavy, somewhat bold and interestingly delicious…would buy again
Kate: A little too "woodsy"…would not buy again


who's thirsty?
