HB honey malt

This is usually a "wow!" beer for me but this one is kind of blah for some reason. Mostly lacking the Belgian yeast esters, thinner body, more bitterness and less maltiness than I recall, alcohol (9.4%) is more noticeable. Don't know if it's the beer or me or what would cause it if it's either. Hope it's just a bad bottle and not the whole 4 pack.

I was at Total Wine the other day, checking out the section of single beers. Saw two from Ukraine, so bought one of each.

This one is your typical Grolsch-like Euro export lager. Not bad, a little skunky due to the green bottle.

I recently learned that Annapolis Homebrew stocks a wide variety of Ukrainian hops. I'm eager to try some, but because it became obvious that Europe was about to be smashed by a long-term heatwave a few years ago, I bought huge quantities of UK and Continental hops, so I'm a little pressed for space right now.

Nevertheless, I think I'll nab a pound or two later this year.

Cherry Hibiscus Berlinerweisse at Cahaba Brewing. Very subtle fruit, nicely tart, tasty beer.

That sounds like a seriously tasty brew. I'm marking that 1 down on my list as to-do. For now, it's just a plain old Dry Stout.

I highly recommend Nationalniy. Farnesene FTW.
