st. augustine's sampler

had me a sampler the other night (ha, more like a week and a half ago...) at st. augustine's



and so did amanda


i went with hopworks' organic rise-up red, bear republic's peter brown tribute ale, lagunitas undercover investigation shut-down ale and sierra nevada's pale ale

i loooved the undercover ale - bitter but not in that amazing northwest ipa way, it was actually kinda sweet, like brown sugar malty hoppy, which sounds like a weird combo but it was very much working for me!

the sierra nevada is not the hoppiest pale ale, but definitely more hops than some of my friends would like!

the rise-up red is a full-bodied wonderfully hoppy number, and i really like it!

the peter brown tribute ale was malty as f*ck, roasty but not too sweet - molasses yay! very nice addition to my sampler!
