Just thought I'd start a thread reviewing some of the different beers I've had the opportunity to try. Nothing too scientific. If you've had the beer, feel free to share your experiences as well.
Tonight 05/04/08 I am sampling Dogfish Head's Midas Touch. Serving in a fluted glass. I've heard good and bad about this beer, but I liked it. Malty with some unique flavors (grapes, honey, saffron). Some slightly floral hops. Very sweet beer overall, with a sweet finish. The 9% alcohol starts to warm up the stomach after the glass is empty.
Overall: Worth the $4 to try it once. Dogfish Head deserves props for giving this a go. If I ever wanted it again, I'd probably brew a clone only because 4 bucks a bottle is 4 bucks a bottle. I'd add some more hops.
