Tonight's Troubadour Blonde brought out a rich gold beer with a nice head with particles floating through it. Lots of carbonation which you might expect from a Belgium styled beer refermented in the bottle. The head didn't last but the bubbles did, and the taste was rich and full. 6.5% and lovely.
The second beer, PranQster, from California, brewed in the style of the Belgiums, didn't cut it for me. Now that my standards have been raised to expect lots of punch, the beers less robust leave me feeling disappointed!
Very nice group of folks with gorgeous Harley's made the socializing very enjoyable! As usual Xman and his friends make the environment more interesting than your ordinary beer bar - kicked it up a notch!
Pool competition was light, so practice was in order. Still needing help with those rail shots. Will I ever learn how to drop those in??!!??
Here are a couple of interesting links to other beer blogs. A local restaurant is offering a NYS Beer Dinner on July 22 from 5-9 pm $39 (Terrapin, Rhinebeck, NY). http://newyorkbeer.blogspot.com/
