New Glarus Organic Revolution


The beer has a hazy golden color. It's a decent medium bodied beer, with a clean crisp finish. There's a bunch of hops in it, but they don't overpower the beer. I'm all for drinking organic beer, but this one is kinda boring.

Bloody Mary or Beer????

It all started out a an innocent trip to the corner gas station. Then I have to go and run into this stuff. I have been known to out down a few bloody marys, so when I saw beer/clamato juice it peaked my interest. This stuff is f@#$ing disgusting. These are two things that should have never been mixed together. Bud just made their beer worse, if that's possible.

Raspberry Tart


So, I bought this beer in a fancy Cheese and Wine Chalet on our trip back from The Great North Woods. I'm not a beer officiando like some so I many not be able to effectively describe this fabulous concoction, but I enjoyed it all the same. It was full of fruity flavor and tart as it it says in the name and on the bottle.They recommend drinking it out of champagne flutes. Brent recommended mixing it with another beer to balance the flavors out but we didn't have any other beer in the house so we just tried it straight up. Next time we will mix it up with another beer and see how that works. I would suggest checking out this fabulous product of New Glarus Brewery, especially if you're looking for a classier beer to impress your guests at a dinner party. Or if you're just sipping something fun while putting together a puzzle, which we were!

Keep up the good work!

No pictures yet, but I do have beer in the fridge. Will have one in honor of this new venture in hopes that everyone will do the same.

Schlafly No. 15



I picked this up while I was in St. Louis last week. Someone told me the brewery made some good stuff, so I grabbed a 6pk of their Scottish ale for my hotel room. I drank all of that and wanted to bring some home, but the store was out of it so I tried the #15. I was really surprised. This is a great American dark wheat. The beer has a light fruity aroma and a slight pear finish. It kinda is like a less sweet Oberon. This is a great everyday beer. I could get hooked on this stuff it was available in Chicago.
