A while ago, Miracle Max paid us a visit. During an evening of drinking and good company, I had expressed my disappointment with the Firestone Walker Fifteenth Anniversary Ale. There was nothing really wrong with the bottle. It was just that is leaned a little too heavily on barley […]
The Anderson Valley Brewing Company in Boonville, CA has been in operation since 1987. Presently, they produce 8 beers year round, two solstice brews and the limited edition Bahl Hornin’ series, (that means “good drinking” in Boontling). Last summer, we had reviewed the Summer Solstice. In the Fall, we had reviewed the Boont Amber Ale. Recently, […]
A while ago, I picked up a bottle from Full Sail’s Limited Edition Lager series. The bottle was Recipe #5 which is Full Sail’s take on an amber ale. As it turns out, the bottle is available from March to June and follows their special single malt, single hops lager,the #4. After […]
A long while ago, I picked up a Boont Amber Ale in an effort to redeem Anderson Valley Brewing Company for the Summer Solstice. When we reviewed the Summer Solstice as a part of our summer can contest, we had come to the unfortunate conclusion that it was […]

On a trip to Kress Liquors, I had picked up a couple of big bottles. So, when the G-LO Jrs had my boys over, I just couldn’t show up empty handed (I was raised right). As the boys played and the dutiful fathers supervised (well sort of), we cracked […]
Recently, I redeemed a Father’s Day gift certificate for lunch at the Wishing Well. As I had opted for a Shame Burger, I needed a bigger beer to compensate for all of the meat. To that end, from the extensive beer menu, I selected a beer from Ballast […]
While in San Diego, we stopped at Café Coyote and with dinner I opted for a Ballast Point Pale Ale (Yellowtail). From the Ballast Point site:
On a recent trip to La Jolla, we stopped at the local Rock Bottom Brewing Company and I selected the sampler. This involves eight 4oz pours. The first 4 pours are the same tried and true beverages that are served at all of the Rock Bottom’s. The last […]
