I have set myself the goal to review three beers or ciders every week for 100 weeks. I will be learning about beer and ciders more as I do this, and if I am successful in this venture, I will have tried about 300 unique drinks. If you're curious how I'm doing, the number in the post's title tells you which week I am in now.
Black Bavarian, Hard Root Beer, Mai Bock |
Sprecher. I know little about the company besides that they make an excellent line of sodas. However, the internet tells me that their brewery is in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and they do tours. If I'm ever in the area I really want to go on one of those tours.
Black Bavarian) This black lager is a really dark and heavy beer just as the name would suggest. I would have liked it better if it had been a touch smoother. The malt flavor bit just enough to make one hesitate to drink, but sipping seemed to work well. A good rich beer that reminds me that sometimes you practically have to chew to enjoy the depth. ☆☆☆
Hard Root Beer) Really this was not my first time having Sprecher's Fire Brewed Hard Root Beer. This baby is flame kissed with a sweet root beer flavor that suavely transitions into a bourbon-like aftertaste. I've already made this a staple for those times when I want a root beer that is, in fact, a beer. ☆☆☆☆☆
Mai Bock) The Mai Bock is Sprecher's spring seasonal beverage so the timing's a little off, but it looked interesting. Mind you, I don't like hoppy beers that much, and this one is hoppy. However, the hops are of a more floral variety, and I found this beer easier to drink after that bitter initial sip. If you ignore the hops, the general flavor of the beer was a straightforward caramel warmness. ☆☆☆
