Name:
Location: Wilmore, Kentucky, United States

I am a very complex person, with many facets that few people, if any, know about. That is probably because, while I am an open book, I leave it up to others to actually take the initiative to turn the pages. This blog is just a place for me to put down random thoughts and to think aloud sometimes. If you are reading this, thank you for your time and blessings to you.

Beer. Beer. Beer

Hofbrau Original
This beer has a rich, golden color and a solid white head on it. It has just a bit of a fizz on the tongue. The flavor is full and pleasant. It has a rich malty flavor that is definitely one that I will return to again. Plus, you get a full pint in each bottle.

Hofbrau Maibock
This beer has a dark golden color with a descent yellowish head on it. It has a full flavor with a bit of a kick to it and some bitterness on the back of the taste. It has a ever-so-slight sweetness to it also. This is a average tasting beer so I would have no problem drinking this again.


Hofbrau Hefe Weizen
This pale, golden ale has an large head on it. It tastes light and somewhat sweet with a surprisingly bitter aftertaste which I think is from the yeast. While this is not especially bad, I probably won't be buying this one again.


Monty Python's Holy Grail Ale
This ale has a dark golden color and a short-lived head on it. It has a fine taste with a bit of bitterness that makes it a pleasure to drink. It also has a kind of sweetness/fruitiness to it also. It kind of surprised me how good it was given the joking they did with the name. But this is an ale I will probably buy again.


Orval Trappist Ale
This ale has a dark reddish-brown color to it and a lot of head on it. It has a fruity, but bitter flavor to it. Although it didn't say anything, it appears that the last bit should have been left in the bottle. The last bits make it cloudy. So, if I get this ale again I will remember to hold back a little. But overall it is pretty good.


Schlafly Pale Ale
This ale has a rich golden color with a little bit of a head on it. It has a good, malty flavor to it with a bit of tinkle on your tongue. It also has just a hint of bitterness. It is a good ale to drink at anytime.


Boulder Beer Company hazed & infused dry-hopped ale
This ale has a dark golden color with a nice head on it. It has a nice hoppy flavor to it with just a little bitterness. It is a good ale with a full taste that satisfies.


New Holland Brewing Mad Hatter IPA
This Indian Pale Ale has a dark amber color and a bit of a yellowish head on it. The flavor is like that of a spicy cider with what tastes like cologne in it. Yes, I know that sounds bad, but it really isn't. I just can't pick anything that feels like that in the back of my throat other than a strong cologne. So, while this ale is okay, I probably won't be drinking it regularly.
