I have two words for you: Crush. Able. Eureka Heights Mostly Harmless pale ale is a beer “of very little threat,” and that gentleness is my favorite...
Astral Nebulous Pale Ale drinks like a kaleidoscope of citrus flavors, and somehow they did it with only two hops - Citra and...
B52 Wheez the Juice's explosion of hops was one of the first of it’s kind in Houston, or at least the first to draw a huge crowd that could...
Conclusion: You can find a handful of really good hazy IPAs on the shelves. None of them will be quite as good as what you'd get from...
The smell of Back Pew Evildoer Pale Ale is reminiscent of he aforementioned bubbles with some slightly soapy, floral, citrus notes and a...
Lame Duck pours a medium amber color, with the perfect amount of head. In the recent haze craze, anything amber that you can see through is sometimes dismissed. The color isn't too clear, which sometimes indicates a thin watery beer. Your nose can't miss the citrus fire that exudes after pouring....
When the crowd was finally mellowed and entranced by the live musician, who was covering 80’s/90’s ballads, Jeff was able to join me as well as a fellow author and a few brewers from Back Pew Brewing in a game of darts. It was during my back to back bullseye throws that I learned the story behind Lame Duck. The beer had originally been called...
Lame Duck, before they started canning it, was a brewery only beer. The first time I went to the brewery and tried it, it was love at first sight. It left me heart broken though because I couldn't make it out to the brewery often enough! Then 11 Below expanded their production and that allowed them to begin to can Lame Duck! ...
EZ-7 pours this beautiful, golden orange color with a small amount of white head that dissipates quickly. The head leaves some lacing around the glass as it's consumed. On my first whiff, I was overwhelmed with all of the aromas coming out of the can...
I've been jonesin' to get Lame Duck in cans and I am pretty sure I pestered the guys about it the last few times I have been out to the brewery. In fact, last time I went, they showed Chris and I the can design for Lame Duck and it is...
Kangaroo Killer Pale Ale by Copperhead Brewery is quickly becoming a go to brew! Tony and I were actually able to sit down with Seth the day before he released the beer and half way through the beer I got a call from my wife asking me to leave because my son ran out of formula at daycare. So I did what every dad in the world would do, I pretended like I couldn't hear her and hung up. You know I couldn't do that! I left and...
Willin pours a lovely golden color with lots of frothy head on the top. I am not sure if this is a single hopped pale ale, but it certainly smells like mosaic hops are...
It's as refreshing as any Pale Ale I've ever had. Pub Crawl Pale Ale smells of very, very vibrant floral and citrus. The can reads "bright and sessionable," and it couldn't be more true. The flavor of Pub Crawl Pale Ale starts off crisp as...
Let me start by saying this is one of the most polarizing beers I know of. Anytime it's mentioned the hard-core beer snobs hate it, the macro drinkers have never heard of it, and the people in between...
I think there are mild beers and there are subtle beers. Kangaroo Killer Pale Ale was subtle in the very best way. The aroma of this sneaky little Pale Ale was super-bright and citrusy. Sitting at a subtle 5% ABV, it's crushable, and just like a tiny baby copperhead, it could get...
When I opened the can and poured B-52's Wheez the Juice into my glass, I could smell the contents immediately and I would say I was perhaps a foot away from the glass. The aroma was fruitier than any beer I’ve had previously and smelled of...
Just like the label warned this American Pale Ale is Hazy and thick. There is a thin layer of foam, but only lasts so long that in fact I had to drink and pour some more to get the shot. It has an awesome hoppy starter kick that mellowed into a...
I've only had a few beers in this style (although they're not calling it a NEIPA), but B-52 Wheez the Juice reminds me a bit of New Hops on the Block, as it was the first beer I had with these sorts of flavors and...
Pine Belt Pale Ale is a bit aggressive for the style, but I still really enjoyed it. It's a year round beer and suitably so as it's refreshing enough to stand up to the Houston heat that fills 10 months of our calendars. APAs are typically a bit more gentle than IPAs when it comes to IBUs, ABV, and hop flavor, but this one...
