Beer Reconnaissance: Early Summer Selections
Updated: Aug 18, 2020
Dan is on a mission to try as many local beers as possible, one single can at a time...
In the mood for something...
"Simple yet satisfying"
Beer: Dagerlaager
Brewery: Dageraad
Style: Old World Pilsner, 5% ABV
Comment: Light, easy on the palate, and has that note of honey nut cheerios-like taste from the traditional German malts.
"No-nonsense and hoppy"
Beer: Greg
Brewery: Four Winds
Style: West Coast IPA, 6.5% ABV
Comment: Aromatic, flavourful, with a measured hop punch and bitterness for a clean finish.
"Tasty, and a little fancy"
Beer: Madame Roxanne
Brewery: Strange Fellows
Style: Barrel Aged Blackberry Sour, 6% ABV
Comment: It’s juicy, has a bit of pucker, and the time spent in French oak gives it a slight rustic quality.
"Traditional with a twist"
Beer: Regel
Brewery: House of Funk
Style: Lagered Saison with Rice, 5% ABV
Comment: It has a lot going on, but it’s easy on the palate, so you want to go in for another sip.
