A little pineapple booch
 
I can’t think of a better way to unwind after all that Hefe-Weizen and blow all the 4-vinyl guaiacol out of my system than this. How about a Cascadian Dark Ale blender? Yeah!! Notice I’ve dumped the retarded “Black IPA” misnomer from my writings. May it lay with the spent grains and trub in the trash bin of history. Dumper!

I just love Stone’s rendition of a Cascadian Dark Ale. CDA’s are a Northwest creation and fit right along with smoked salmon, razor clams, Grunge Rock, venison, Evergreens, geoducks, the Space Needle, and the other half of tech on the West Coast. A lot of freakzoids too, that’s another story. I challenge you not to look up geoduck! Ha!

Blending this back 50/50 with my favorite mixer - Budweiser Zero - yields up plenty to gulp – at a very reasonable 4.35% ABV – Still a CDA and VERY drinkable! Chug!

Damn. Brewers are former engineers. Cranking the Tool and then onto Albert King.

I'm into the funky melon profile. This had a really good sweet nonpithy orange flavor that tweaked back and forth with the funky melon. It was interesting but I really liked the true orange that would come and go. Maybe the pine is what made it a fight with melon and orange. Could be refined
