Had a
gift card to use at a Whole Foods that I received as a Christmas gift, so I bought some frivolous foodie things and a few beers to try. I've seen others drinking Lagunitas Sucks brews on this thread and they had a "Brown Shugga' Substitue Ale"...so I picked up a single to try. Drinking that now...I'm not a pro at the critique thing, but it strikes me as "hoppy grapefruit...maybe a little pine resin". Interesting...I think I like it. Am I in the ballpark? Also bought a German Hefe, because I've got an HB in the primary in that style and I want a comparison. I also picked up some Dogfish Head 60 minute IPA...because I want the shark bottles for an HB I'm doing for a friend that dives. Finally, I grabbed a 4-pack of Brooklyn Chocolate Stout...because I just want to try it! And I think I can reuse all the bottles I bought today...bonus!
