These tots definitely don't taste like 8%. B52 Pocket Tots Strawberry Milkshake starts off smooth and silky from the milk sugar, and finishes with...
SpindleTap 5 Percent Tint was fire in my book. I love hops. I love refreshing. And I love sessionable because I don't wanna ever be the jerk at the bar that's faded, talking all crazy to everybody he halfway knows. Nobody in town...
It smells like very-ripe mango and cantaloupe. Nick said it was a bit vegetal, but I don’t get that - just heavy, ripe fruit and a tiny little alcohol note on the finish; all of...
11 Below Trade Bait IPA is a rotating hop beer with a delightfully fruity hop aroma that smells like oranges and pineapples in the cleanest, sharpest way. Not even sure if that makes sense but...
I was lucky enough to get a Crowler of Whole Foods Brewing DL Wet Hop by way of Sam. He's up there enough that they probably oughta put his butt to work, but that's another story for another time. It's a fresh...
Last weekend was ridiculously full of beer events and releases. It was a particularly good weekend for juice heads. Spindletap, Sigma, Baa Baa, and Copperhead all released hazy IPAs. Copperhead Citraaddicted more than held it's own with Operation Juice Drop, 4xDDH Medina Sod, and Houston Haze. My recommendation is pretty simple, if you like hazy IPA's it's a great time to be in Houston. Drink them all! ...
Operation Juice Drop shines through the dark clouds with fresh, green pineapple flavors on the front and grapefruit and sweet oranges on the finish, but in between there’s a smooth fruitiness. The grapefruit finish also singed of a pronounced hop burn...
Fresh Hop Elissa IPA is an farm-to-table, err, brewery, take on Saint Arnold's longtime IPA, Elissa. It's made with fresh hops instead of the usual dried up pellets, and it smells subtle, but of so many different things. There are grassy and fruity notes that...
From the first scene, the can of B52 Looking Good Barry cracked open and filled my house with the same pineapply, tropical notes that...
One of those that got a small release out of the sheep pen was PS I Love Ewe, another NEIPA from the husband and wife duo credited with the first NEIPA brewed in the Houston area...
OMGEENIE, Meenie NEIPA pours like the creamiest, thickest, juice you've ever seen. I was waiting for globs of pulp, but there were none in sight. It's...
We know all too well how big Harvey was and just how ominous he looked, but this F U Harvey Cat 4 is a great refuge from all that with the color and opacity of chicken soup broth. There was a...
F U Harvey Cat 3 poured a hazy orange just like Cat 4 - with 2 fingers of foamy white head that stuck around for a little while and laced down the glass spottily. Don't mind the crappy...
The taste of Mini Boss was good! After all of these hazy IPAs, I feel like I'm reconsidering my life decisions and prior ratings, but this is a traditional American IPA that could hold it's own alongside something...
It was just a mere six months ago that I decided to proverbially dip my toe into the water and purchase a small craft beer kit that would produce 2 gallons of India Pale Ale; a brew style that I believe to be advanced and is intimidating in itself. The kit was purchased not at a home brew store, but on the for sale aisle of...
I know I know this review isn't breaking news that Houston Haze is the bomb. What impresses here is the consistency of the beer. The mouth is super soft and has only improved. The citrus just explodes in your mouth while the bitter remains very low on the back end....
Unless you're trading for it, I'm pretty sure Baa Baa in a Galaxy Far Far Away is gone already, but for the sake of cataloging it incase it comes back...
Ennie Meenie miney mo catch a beer by the toe! Maybe nursery rhymes aren't your thing but I bet Meenie by Baa Baa Brewhouse will change your tune!...
B52 Upgrayedd smells of grapefruits, and pineapples from the dry hopping and a tiny little alcohol note plays the background. The aromas are ppowerful and ppleasant - two P's for a double dose of aroma. It tastes...
SpindleTap Hops Drop beats down your throat knocking pictures off the wall, and it all starts with a smooth, sweet fruit-punch flavor followed by subtle bitterness and the aforementioned subtly-piny, fruity...
