Speakeasy - Baby Daddy Session IPA

Its watching me!

And it is delicious.

Epic Mosaic

Epic has a new beer! It is fruity!  Almost overpoweringly so, on the first taste, with a mass of floral aroma and some sharp, fruity tones.  Settles down a bit after the first sip, but retains those same characters.  I don't think it wants to be too cold, either.  It isn't my favourite of their offerings, but its worth a try.

Also, I'm still loving the 'One Trick Pony' tag.  Embrace the hate, Epic!

Dogfish Head: 'Aprihop'

The guy at the Hamilton Wine Company tells me that, while Dogfish Head's Festina Peche has been selling well, people seem wary of the Aprihop.  That is enough to get me to try it, and I don't regret it.  Sure, it is kind of fruity.  There is no chance of not noticing that apricots were involved in this beer.  But it isn't sweet or sickly.  The flavours complement the hops (of which there are a lot. 50 IBUs, according to the Dogfish Head site).  It finishes cleanly, and has a nice after-taste.  I hope we can still get this as our summer arrives, but it is a seasonal release, so I wouldn't be surprised if it disappears from shelves as the US moves into fall/winter.

Oh yes it is.

Nice colour!
