New Beer Friday 7/21/23

Well this is awkward. Actually this week's meme is awkward, not New Beer Friday. NBF has a diverse selection of beers this week. Enjoy 'em right into your Pie and Beer Day Holiday.

This week on Beer Nerd Radio, we celebrate one damn year of ruining your Friday afternoons with my long-winded bullshit and Steph's exuberant giggles. Today we welcome back Marcio Buffalo of Mountain West Cider and we will get into yeast! No that's beer nerdy shit! It all starts at 2pm on 99.9FM KUAA. 

Grid City - (Sentence Series) Blueberry, Coffee, Bourbon Vanilla Infused Nitro Honey Cream Ale: The aptly name series has a new addition this week Aroma pops with coffee. Flavor however: starts with big berry tartness and gradually transitions into the rich coffee from the nose. It's a great blend, though the vanilla gets a little lost on it all. 5.0%

TF - 2023 Grisette: Fermented with Pinot noir grapes, strawberries, Bulgarian rose petals - aged in Zinfandel barrels. The aroma is very vinious and oaky plenty of buttery oak to go around. The sweet Zin barrels combined with the Pinot grapes create a nice sangria of wine flavors. The beer provides the fruitier aspects giving this light beer a complex beer/wine hybrid flavor. Some nice grape must tannins in the finish. TF is presenting this in a clear 750ml bottle. 5.7% - Available at TF starting today.

Bewilder - Chick FlipThis Pink Boots beer features the 6th annual blend of hops that feature Loral, Ekuanot, and HBC 586 cones. On the tongue, this has a lot of chewy oat-like malt combined with dank and grassy hoppiness, melding notes of light tropical fruit cocktail with some bright citrus and herbal elements. Pineapple-like intensity combines with lime, tangerine, passion fruit and mango. Kind of a chalky mid-palate that gets a bit indefinite here and there, but I really like the complex hop elements up front and in the finish. 5.0% - Available at Bewilder starting today.

Strap Tank - El Session Clasica: This session IPA is described as being full of vibrant citrus-berry-piney notes that won't tire your taste buds. It's a classic craft beer with a twist - a testament to our commitment to quality within boundaries. 5.0% 

Strap Tank - Cucumber Pilsner: Look for the sweetness of melon with the crispness of cucumber for a truly unique pilsner experience. 5.0%

Wasatch - Ruby Rapture Red IPA: Nice Red IPA. Malt with bright berry notes. A little citrus rears its head midway, with pine rounding it out. Wish more brewerirs would do Red IPAs especially in autumn. Found at Wasatch/Squatters SLC. 

Squatters - Strawberry & Cream Oat Pale Ale: This debuts today. No notes on this one. Please note: this is Not Salt Lake Brewing Company's beer (formerly squatters). This is Wasatch/Squatters. 5.0% Available at Wasatch/Squatters SLC. 


Chappell - Strawberry Rhubarb Gose: Missed this one. 5.0% - Available at Chappell Brewing.

Silver Reef - Koval Pilsner: Missed this one. 5.0% Found at Silver Reef, Slackwater.

Silver Reef - Pie And Beer Day Blueberry BlondeMissed this one. Thanks for making a Pie and Beer Day brew! 5.0% Found at Silver Reef, Slackwater.

Vernal - The Boys Berries: Missed this White Stout. 5.0% 

Mountain West - Tropical Crush: Passionfruit dominates this new cider from MW Hard Cider. Nice dry/tart character that's low in tannins and big on tropical fruits. Very tasty. 6.8% - Available today at Mountain West Cider.

Cheers!
