Welcome to September: the time of harvest beers. While we have no harvest beers to speak of yet, they are being brewed as we speak. To tide us over we have a mostly fruity New Beer Friday with no hop bombs that I'm aware of. If I missed something please let me know.Beer Nerd Radio welcomes our beer family from the south, Silver Reef Brewing. The Silver Reef Empire not only includes beer, but spirits, wine and even casinos. Mike Key one of the Grand Poobah's of Silver Reef will be joining Steph and I in the radio pub starting at 2pm on 99.9FM KUAA.
Proper - Live Terri: Terri: a collaborator/artist with Proper was recently diagnosed with leukemia. To help fund her medical treatment, this special beer was created. Terri’s beer is an American Krystallweizen with “lemon & berry”. Proceeds from all sales of "Love, Terri" will go directly to the Terri O'Brien benefit fund. 5.0% - Available now at Proper.
Shades - Blackberry PB&J: The peanut butter part comes across as toasted nuts rather than PB. The “J” part is spot on for Shades signature fruit sour base. Not too jammy, but tart and slightly sweet. The peanut butter part is a bit askew for me which takes me out of the vibe they're creating. Tasty stuff. 6.5% - Available now at Shades
TF - Golfer’s Delight: grainy, husky. Some corn. It’s an actual light lager with flavor. If the name doesn’t give away the intent, you’d think this was designed for time spent in the sun, while recreating at a leisurely pace. That’s what you get, but also much more. You get actual flavor too. Husky grain, corn, floral hops and quenchability. 5.0% - Available on draft and in cans at TF today.
Cascade - Gose Roselle: This Gose-style ale was aged in oak barrels for up to 10 months before infusing with roselle hibiscus, fresh Meyer lemon zest, ground coriander and Oregon coast sea salt. 5.0% - Found at the Bayou.
Prairie - Neapolitan Squeeze: Missed this sour Ale with cacao nibs, vanilla, strawberry, and lactose 4.7% - Found on draft at The Bayou.
Cheers!
