I needed a beer today, and since Walker grabbed beer for this week, I suggested he try looking for a new series (since Mission sucked). I'm looking forward to getting one right.
This IPA is real strong, like bull. It's not too bitter, but it is hugely hoppy. I suppose there's just enough malt too keep the bitter at bay.
Tim Allen. I dont know much about him outside of tool time, crappy movies and Buzz Lightyear, but Buzz is a good corollary to this beer's bitterness. Bold, too bold to be taken really seriously. But well-intentioned and ultimately a success when paired with a mellow, softer-spoken buddy, Woody.
Woody.
David and Walker are drinking a different beer each day* for an entire year, 365 beers in all, starting August 5th, 2010. We're writing about our daily regime to share the experiences and delicious discoveries with our friends and mild acquaintances to inspire YOU to bring previously unknown beers to your lips.
