I recently moved to the Pacific Northwest from the Midwest, so I'm slowly (but surely) trying all the new brews I find at the grocery store.

Tonight, it's Kona's Longboard Island lager. While I don't know what the style guidline is for 'island lager', this beer is exactly what I expected... vision a bunch of tourists sitting at a Waikiki beach bar, pounding these down one after another. That's exactly what it is. That said: I'm actually enjoying this. As a brewer who's tried to do Light American Lagers myself, it's REALLY tough to brew this style! There's nothing (malt/hop flavors) to cover-up your mistakes when brewing Light American Lagers. I'll put it to ya this way... If I were trying to homebrew a Light American Lager, and came even close to this, I would be completely satisfied. This is a great example of the style. It doesn't have any off-flavors at all. It smells nice, is balanced, is clear, the 'early morning pee yellow' color is right on the mark, and it finishes clean and crisp. This isn't like Bud/Miller/Coors puts out... I don't detect any 'beachwood' or 'rice' (adjunct) flavors. So I would guess it's all-malt. I think Kona brewing company hit the bullseye with this beer.

How's that anti-gravity camera working out for you? Seriously, though how is that? I really liked their dopplebock so if that's any indication of the level of beer they're putting out in the series that's a good beer.

Right now I am having a Size 7 IPA courtesy of my man, Nordy. It's even better the second time around. Thanks, man!

Honestly, I know a guy right up in your neck of Houston who's kind enough to send me some of the goodies you guys get from time to time. I'm expecting a huge haul of JK sours and some Southern Stars (among others) from him today.

Easily my favorite local year round IPA that's bottled. So F'n good. Steel Toe's a tiny li'l place right up the road from Midwest Supply, only a few places here in town get their bottles and most of those are in St. Louis Park (where it's brewed). Their Size 11 DIPA should be out very soon!!

If the Bishop's Barrel is anything like their Bourbon Barrel Imperial Stout I've had on cask then you got a treat. Probably my favorite beer. Seriously though, does your friend work for a distributor? I thought those were only going to restaurants and bars because the didn't produce enough for wide distribution.
