Flying Dog Tire Bite Golden Ale is more of a Gremlin than Man's Best Friend

Took the kayak out (haven't since 4th July) and had an awesome early afternoon meeting up with peeps from Red Bull, which culminated in a late El Torito brunch. Later we headed to SUSHI STOP on Sawtelle for, wait for it, sushi. Every plate here is $3 and I had an incredible plate of Salmon Bellies. I could feast on those all day, as well as the Eel and Pampano. Check it out here: Sushi Stop and click on 'specials' on the top left. I'm pretty excited to take a date there and not tell her how much I'm not spending on her.

We almost convinced the hip waitress to let us bring the sixer of Golden Ale in, but I'm glad we didn't...

Baxter, bark twice if you're in Milwaukee

Afterwards, I brought this to a rooftop party in Westwood for Jooey and I might be switching to Maker's Mark. It's a fairly lackluster showing for a golden ale. Tire Bite has a weak, watery body and a bitter taste. I've had better. Flying Dog's Raging Bitch Belgian IPA is one of my favorite beers but unfortunately, Tire Bite is just the Bitch's piss. THE ISLAND rating.
