What a beautiful day for some “day drinking”. Getting the day started with a five-beer flight of the Crushing Pils, CLT Barbarian Blonde, Bang A Uey, Control Alt and Ginger Or Mary Ann. We arrived here to find today was the “release party” for the Ginger Or Mary Ann cream ale where they had the place decorated like Guligan’s Island, passing out lei’s and cranking out caribbean tunes. The cream ale was served on nitro and was delicious with a hint of coconut. The real winner was the altbier with blonde ale coming in at a close 2nd. The pale ale was well balanced with a nice sweetness and not too hoppy. We were surprised the pils was a little bitter considering it was a 2021 Gold winner at the US Beer Open but had good flavor and worked well with our pretzles bite & queso.
