Booze...in 50 Words or Less: Southern Tier Iniquity

Southern Tier Iniquity
I was hesitant to try this beer since I've had mixed results with both black IPAs and products by New York's Southern Tier Brewing Company. But hops and stout flavor mix flawlessly. Picked up healthy amount of grapefruit and plenty of chocolate. A chocolate grapefruit. Sounds gross. But it works!

Booze...in 50 Words or Less: Samuel Adams Dark Depths Baltic IPA

Samuel Adams Dark Depths Baltic IPA
I've always seen Samuel Adams as a large-scale beermaker. But their small-batch series is making me believe in their microbrew bona fides. This pours thick and creamy. There's a coffee kick in the finish, but hops pop in scent and sip. Great IPA/stout combo. Awesome label too!

Booze...in 50 Words or Less: Clown Shoes Hoppy Feet Black IPA

Clown Shoes Hoppy Feet Black IPA
Tough to diss beer that was purchased lovingly by one's spouse, but here goes: Felt a little deceived by this. Supposed to be mix of stout and IPA, but I tasted mostly stout. Lacked hops. Not much of a scent. A plain beer experience and, well, not really true advertising.
