Sierra Nevada Glissades

[uglysofa]

Enjoying one right now after a big plate of Jumbalaya What are your thoughts on the beer?

 

[ChshreCat]

Just picked up a sixer of it and it's not a bad beer, but I don't think I'll buy another. Just kind of Meh.

 

[Ralelen]

Didnt like last year's. Like ChshreCat said"..kind of Meh". Not malty enough if my memory serves me correct.

 

[KBrew75]

Tried it and didn't like it. So far, it's the only beer that I've tried that I'll never try again.

I take that back. So far, It's one of two beers I've tried that I'll never try again.

Sam Adams Noble Pils is the other. I really looked forward to drinking a glass of their White Ale on draft during lunch in the spring. They replaced it with Noble Pils which I think is terrible.

Like ChshreCat said"..kind of Meh".

maybe I don't like bocks...

 

[GilaMinumBeer]

Meh.

 

[ChshreCat]

Wow, I thought I'd be dissed for not liking it, not quoted.

Sierra Mehvada

Sierra Nevada has done MUCH Better~

 

[ChshreCat]

While I enjoy their Celebration and Bigfoot, I have to admit that I find their pale ale to be kind of meh too.

 

[starrfish]

from the bottle:
"Glissade is remarkably mellow, sliding across the palate with layers of subtle malt flavor balanced by a touch of delicate European hops"

IMHO a bit of goat ass... thin body... and had to force down #6 a week after purchase...

I like their pale as a session... no goat assy-ness. most bocks have this for me. SN's overall are good for me. LOVE special hop line (wet hop, early hop etc) Celebration & bigfoot

 

[ToddO]

Wow. I dig it so more for me. Something a little different. I dont buy it often but when staring at the store refrigerator its a nice change as to what I usually get. I usually only pay top $ for IPA's. But once in a while I'll grab some Glissade or Firestone's Solace to shake it up..

 

[madbaldman]

Not my favorite but I do like it better than most mai bock type beers - a little more hops to balance the malt. Last years was better though. I probably won't buy anymore this year but I'll try it again next year.

 

[Shooter]

Wow. I dig it so more for me. Something a little different.

Yeah, I kind of like it too.

 

[Oscbert]

i like it..........

 

[fishnfever]

The wife picked me up a 12 pack of it knowing I enjoy most of Sierra Nevada's brews. I thought it was kind of plain. However maybe I'm not a bock fan (first time having bock). I can say I tried it but don't think I would buy it my self.

Just my opinion

 

[mhenry41h]

I'm surprised somebody hated Noble Pils. I'm not a big fan of most lager beers, but I thought it was one of the better Bohemian Pilsners that I've had.

One brew at a time...

 

[Baja_Brewer]

I don't like it. I never look forward to their spring/summer beers. I love autumn/winter/bigfoot releases. Come summer I stick with Torpedo or SNPA.
