The Hop Back: Schell's Barrel Aged Schmaltz's Alt
http://thehopback.blogspot.com/2010/08/schells-barrel-aged-schmaltzs-alt.html
There was an error in this gadget. Saturday, August 28, 2010. Schell's Barrel Aged Schmaltz's Alt. August Schell Brewing Co. Barrel Aged Schmaltz's Alt. Purchased at Blue Max Liquors. My wife went to Minnesota and brought back a few local ales. Here is one of them which she bought because Schell's holds "a special place in her heart" due to Bock Fest. Overall: Surprisingly light flavors coming off this beer, especially when you consider the relatively complex aroma. The dark fruit and light cherry ch...

The Hop Back: Oskar Blues GUBNA
http://thehopback.blogspot.com/2010/10/oskar-blues-gubna.html
There was an error in this gadget. Tuesday, October 26, 2010. On Tap at the 4 Daughter’s Irish Pub. Medford, OR. Aroma: At first, and especially when the beer is cold, the primary aroma is rich citrus and grapefruit hop aroma. Letting the beer warm up, a deeper oragne-peel cooked in bread malt aroma will make itself present, accompanying the straight up hop presence. Light traces of alcohol burn the nose just enough to let you know this beer is 10% ABV. Overall: This is certainly the sweetest representat...

The Hop Back: February 2010
http://thehopback.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
There was an error in this gadget. Sunday, February 28, 2010. Brew Dog Punk IPA. Aroma: Trace of citrus hop aroma initially greets the nose. This is followed by caramel, toffee, alcohol spice and a hint of oxidized cardboard aroma. Appearance: Lightly hazy to translucent pale straw and wheat color. Pours absolutely no head but does form some large bubbles at the top with an aggressive pour. Considering the expiration date, I did not review this beer on. As it is not representative of it’s true form.

The Hop Back: October 2010
http://thehopback.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
There was an error in this gadget. Friday, October 29, 2010. Widmer Bros Barrel Aged Brrrbon. Aged in Bourbon Oak Barrels. Purchased at 99 Bottles. Appearance: The lightest brown to mahogany red with crystal clarity. Head is but a trace of an off-white ring at the edge of the glass. Touches of lacing here and there. I rated this beer an “A-” on BeerAdvocate. Note: After rating this beer on BeerAdvocate.com I noticed my rating carried a deviation of 12% greater than the current norm. Overall, as o...Aroma...

The Hop Back: May 2010
http://thehopback.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
There was an error in this gadget. Saturday, May 29, 2010. Widmer Brothers Prickly Pear Braggot. Understand that while a brewer may crank out the same recipe of an American Pale Ale over and over and over and over again, there is no less devotion in that beer than there is in the one-off Bourbon Barrel Aged Russian Imperial Stout with Chocolate Nibs and wax-dipped cap. If there is less devotion, then I would wager that brewer or brewery won’t be around in a year or four. Appearance: Pours a diluted coppe...

Thoughts, Ramblings and Occasional Insights from a Confessed Beer Geek. I am going to be doing some serious beer traveling during July. Stone Brewing Sour Fest 2010, Churchills Sour Party, Oregon Brewers Festival…whew! While I am in lovely California, I have been invited to shoot some footage with my good friends New Brew Thursday. I hope to enlighten the folks in the US to some of the great beer being brewed here in British Columbia. Now if I can just get someone to donate the shipping…. June 28, 2010.

TROY'S TAP HANDLE: BEGINNINGS, PART 2
http://troystaphandle.blogspot.com/2009/11/beginnings-part-2.html
Tuesday, November 10, 2009. BEGINNINGS, PART 2. He seemed to really enjoy them, too. Therefore, it seemed appropriate that Rainier would be the beer to christen this new venture. Rainier Lager, a Light Lager (Standard American Lager) by Pabst Brewing Company. 12 ounce can served in a shaker glass. There is neither nothing to particularly recommend nor to quarrel with. It simply is. It probably better resides in memories of it being in my father's hand on a hot summer day a few decades ago. Tacoma Pipe an...

TROY'S TAP HANDLE: December 2009
http://troystaphandle.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 7, 2009. A Quadrupel by Boulevard Brewing Company. I must first state that I am in love again. It is a new love after the loss of an old one, but love nonetheless. This summer, I discovered that my favorite beer, Thomas Hardy's Ale. Had been retired by its brewer. It was too costly to create, and became increasingly so in our current global economy. I have a couple of bottles cellared, but after they are gone I will only have memories of a great beer. Or so I thought. Make no mistake: th...
