Sonic Beer Blog #37: Lamplighter Brewing Co. Speedwagon Kolsch-Style Ale

Nothing tastes better than FREE beer but this was also a gift from a friend who highly recommended it. That made me nervously anticipate the overall experience because I would hate to report back to him that it was not to my taste. I know what you’re saying, “A real friend would say it was…MORE

Sonic Beer Blog #34: Bay State Brewing Co. Blood Orange Lager

Sonic Beer Blog #34: Bay State Brewing Co. Blood Orange Lager

While Bay State Brewing calls this a Blood Orange Lager it actually has a full spectrum of citrus punch. The pour into Das Boot revealed a pink grapefruit color with a thick pink head and aromas of not just the sweet blood orange but also tangerine, mandarin and grapefruit rind. First sip brings the sweetness…MORE

Sonic Beer Blog # 31: 450 North Brewing Reefer Nuggets American IPA

We’ll just start off with this disclaimer: Although the name and the can may imply it, THERE IS NO CANNABIS IN THIS BEER!

This beer is smooth. It’s all in the name. “Easy Operator”. The aromas of vanilla, tangerine and peach form into a creamscicle as you take that first sip. It’s got a nice medium body with the taste of more tropical fruit, guava and hops. The hopiness doesn’t assault your senses but eases into the mix.…MORE

Yes, it’s a New Zealand Double IPA from a Vermont brewery. Confusing geography aside Burlington Beer Co. has made an exceptional Double with all the best hops from the country of the Kiwi.

Sonic Beer Blog #16: Ten Bends Beer Hovered Ridge Double IPA

The folks at Ten Bends Beer have created a classic big New England Style Double IPA that is so hazy even sonar wouldn’t work through it. It poured a beautiful straw color with a lily white lacy head. The first whiff is all pineapple. More specifically, Dole, in the can, still in the juice. With…MORE
