Summer Flight, the Rogue's notes


July 4th Inlet Fireworks over the Sinepuxent. Stinky Beach.

   Wow Brah, this summer is flyin'. Like here today gone tomorrow. Fast paced into the first half of July. My home has been filled with family over the last couple of weeks. Daughter, her boyfriend and my granddaughter through the 4th. My brother Matt and his family last week. My fiance has been by my side the whole time. And, in the midst of it all I managed to squeeze in a little surf time.

   A couple of chilled mid-western brews were on tap to celebrate the heat of July. Great Lakes Brewing's Rye Of The Tiger, a Rye IPA with a serious citrus punch followed by the spicy jab of rye. At 92 IBUs you can't help but feel the pain of the puns from this beer. However, one too many of these thrown and the strength of a 7.5% ABV will knock you on your ass! Cloudy orange-amber pour with a finger and a half white head. Big Rye IPA fan...rated it an A.

Goose Island Beer Company has a Golden Ale aged with coffee beans for a rich coffee aroma, and surprisingly, taste. Fulton Street Blend Coffee Ale poured a sunny gold with an off white finger head. Fair lacing. The 5.5% alcohol volume and 20 IBUs made it a very smooth and easy drinking brew. Found the whole coffee thing odd considering it was not a porter or stout, but it worked. Purty delicious. B+ rating.


















Geared Up... Bring on the heat!
