Southern Tier's hoppe
for my drinking pleasure this evening i'm going with an imperial pale ale rather than an ipa. no good reason why, just happened to love Southern Tier's unearthly ipa and thought i'd give their Hoppe a try. Southern Tier reports: "2XIPA in the Bottle - April 15, 2010 is the first day for bottling our newest beer, 2XIPA. Phin DeMink has declared it the best beer we've ever brewed! 2XIPA also has the distinction of being the first beer to be distributed in our newly designed packaging. Cheers!" if only my local purveyor of beer had had some in stock, that's what i would have chosen to imbibe this evening. but no use crying over unavailable beer - let me turn my attention to the clear, honey coloured beauty in front of me! speaking of beauty, let me extol the virtues of the cascading beer bubbles at the pour! what a head! i wanna pour some more just to see the wonder of it again. and i did! and it was a thing of beauty and a joy to behold....
