Lazy Mutt Farmhouse Ale - Asking for Opinions
|
|
Has anybody ever had this beer? If so, please comment. This $8 8-pack keeps teasing me at the beer-store. 
Yesterday - Ignored it and bought me a 6r of NB Sunshine Wheat.

I found It had had a sour aftertaste. I thought it wasn't very good.

Question, is it supposed to or is it a flaw?

Can you buy singles? I wouldn't dismiss the poor ratebeer rating, but I wouldn't take that as gospel either.

I agree it's mostly uber snobs, but nonetheless I'd be wary. Seems anything that needs a gimmick, their si8 pack, shouts (to me) the beer isn't great but look we're selling you 8 instead of 6....

I picked up a pack when I was back in Wisconsin on business, they don't distribute here on the West coast so I gave it a shot. If you go into it expecting a farmhouse ale of any sort you will be sorely disappointed. I think they're using the term as a marketing ploy, perhaps the brewery is built in an old farmhouse. The beer has absolutely no farmhouse ale characteristics at all. It's a clean, almost lager like flavor with a mildly unpleasant sweetness at the end that is almost reminiscent of a toned down Leinenkugel's.
I've had much worse, but if I were to choose from the Wisconsin beers that I can't get here again, I would go with the New Glarus black wheat or Wisconsin belgian red as both of those were top notch.

I'll say it is similar to Spotted Cow, but nowhere near as good. I would take most BMCs over it.
Minihas also makes Mountain Creek, which sells for $7.99 a flat... So take that in to consideration.
