This beer is River Phoenix brought back from the dead. Distinctively blond, but not a blond. Difficult to pin down, from a "granola" background but fighting to be defined by a distinct liberal character.

Put some Abita Andygator in my Chex mix
About to walk out the door at 8:45 and Walker calls me back to grab today's beer. A helles dopplebock, this is much more on the dopplebock track that I enjoy. The Weihenstephaner Doppler from Wednesday was way too dark for my liking. That being said, there's still a pretty unique nuttiness to the big fat sweet middle of this beer. My glass smells a lot like cereal. It's almost a yeasty taste, can't quite ID it. It's kinda like drinking a beer made out of corn chex. If this wasn't so strong, it might be a good light summer beer.

Without noticing the "posted by David" on the bottom or really thinking about the Walker reference in the beginning, I can absolutely hear David saying all of these words. Your references are so profound.
