Red Rocket Ale

I picked up a bottle of Red Rocket Ale from Bear Republic Brewing Co.while I was away in Atlantic City.  I grabbed it  for my husband and I to try and I can say that it was a great beer.  It pours an Amber Red color, that’s a bit hoppy and not too carbonated.  It has a…

Chimay Triple

I’m a HUGE fan of Chimay beer.  The tastes are divine.  I just tried for the first time the Chimay Triple.  What a great taste with aromas of banana, pear and even caramel with a hoppy taste.  This beer goes great with meats and seafood.  I give it a 9 out of 10. Chimay is a must…

Rare Vos Ommegang Brewery

Rare Vos is part of the Duvel family of fine beer.  It has a soft carbonation with aromas of Apples, bananas, cloves and other spices.  It is a very well balanced beer, that goes great with some grilled chicken, vegetables or salmon.  I give this beer a 8 out of 10.

Dundee Irish Red Lager

This is the other beer that I tried this weekend as well, along with the Thomas Hooker Red Ale.  DunDee Irish Red Lager is a reddish orange color.  It tasted of bready malt with some caramel, a mild spice and hop bitterness.  It’s a light bodied beer.  I enjoyed this lager as it wasnt the heavy taste…

Thomas Hooker Irish Style Red Ale

This past weekend as we all know was St. Patricks Day.  I decided that I wanted to try some Irish beer and I’m not talking about Guiness.  I wanted something different.  So I went over to my favorite distributor, Northeast Beer in Philadelphia, PA.  These guys just know what they are talking about when it comes to your interest in…

St Pauli Girl

St Pauli Girl average golden,  not over carbonated, bland in taste.  This beer would go good with grilled foods, particularly poultry or pork.  I give this a 4 out of 10. (Keep in mind a 4 is not necessarily a bad rating of mine, it just didn’t do anything to arouse my palette.)
