Stone Brewing Company: Rick & Robbie’s Sprocket Bier

Rick & Robbie’s Sprocket Bier: 1.0 – Stone has betrayed me once again, this time however instead of being pretty par for the course, it’s actually downright fucken awful. See I saw Kolsch, and thought yes, then I saw black – and thought YES! Then I tasted it, and my god it tastes like sour farts. This is certainly the worst tasting beer I’ve had this year, and possibly in top 5 for all time.

anCnoc 12 Year Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750mL

First I want to say this, when you name is capitalized like that – you automatically lose points on the honesty metric of our ‘objective’ scoring system. I wish that wasn’t the case, that a scotch can just be what it wants and doesn’t need to abide by your rules man – but then scotches shouldn’t be American punk bands calling us the man instead of just punching us in the face like a real scot would. You hear that scotch – I want you to hit me – as hard as you can.

LaTrappe Quadrupel Trappist Ale

LaTrappe Quadrupel Trappist Ale: 5.0 – This came to me highly suggested by a fellow member at the wine tasting, but it was just kinda too fruity and banana-y for my tastes concerning quads. It’s certainly not bad, and I see how to the right person it could be great – if that person was a fan of banana beer.

Berkshire Brewing Company Czech Style Pilsner

Berkshire Brewing Company Czech Style Pilsner: 5.0 – Once again we get something from Berkshire that is the standard for the beer that they make; however at the price point it makes it a choice you can always safely make w/o consequence. While Berkshire does make a few beers better than average, they are such a great standard to judge other beers against.
