High and Mighty Fumata Bianca: 6.75 – This beer can be best described as some wheat and rye and smoke just being ‘on it’ as far as the beer goes.

El Espolón Reposado Tequila 750mL
Tequila lovers rejoice because Honest Booze Reviews is committed to trying and not just review scotches (he says knowing last weeks post). Anyway this week we come to something I bought just because of the art on the bottle intrigued me – a clear motif for Mexico’s Day of the Dead.
Weekly Wine: January 9th
Apologies for no post last week, but Jim canceled for Holidays and I didn’t have an extra post available.
Tree House Ma Amber Ale
Tree House Ma: 6.5 – Very bold and upfront, event the smell is intoxicatingly powerful. Not a huge fan of at first actually, but it grows on you.

Gordon Biersch Maibock
Gordon Biersch Maibock: 5.0 – Another Gordon Biersch beer (although I had this on tap). It starts off as a nice maibock flavor but the kind of peters out and really has a piss poor aftertaste.

Auchentoshan Classic Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750mL
Now we are big fans of Auchentoshan, both their 12 year which Justice reviewed a while back, and their Three Wood. Here though we have the simpler offering. While it’s certainly not as great as it’s older siblings, it’s a more affordable price (and if you’re in NH with no goal to buy scotch it becomes affordable to the point where you can’t not buy it.)
Jack’s Abby Barrel-Aged Framinghammer
Barrel-Aged Framinghammer: 2.5 – Sorry but this is just too mellow and sweet to be enjoyed. Jack’s Abby is known for hops but you wouldn’t think so here. It’s not pure sugar like some other barrel aged beers – but damn.
Google Shop Average: Barrel-Aged Framinghammer $8
