Mission St. Brown Ale couldn't distract me from CATFISH

Our second beer from the Paso Robles brewery/Firestone Walker subsidiary which I purchased from the Trader of the Joes. We poured while Jamie K and Aaron B joined us for the much buzzed about documentary CATFISH.

The beer didn't stir me nearly as much as CATFISH did or what I was hoping for after a disappointing Blonde. There were roasted malt tones and caramel but overall the body lacked the richness of the Sierra Nevada Tumbler we had several weeks ago. Overall, kinda weak. 

Now CATFISH was a surprising delight. It lived up to the hype but in a different manner than I expected. It was very emotionally engaging. I refuse to say anymore, you really just have to see for yourself. It's worth a viewing, unlike Mission St. Brown Ale. THE ISLAND rating.
