Booze...in 50 Words or Less: Lagunitas Imperial Red Ale

Lagunitas Imperial Red Ale
When hitting the beer store, first name I'm looking for is Lagunitas. Was starting to fear that I'd tried everything I could get on East Coast. Saw this today. Hallelujah! Beautiful amber color. Perfect balance of hops and malt. Glad I have five more to devour.

Booze...in 50 Words or Less: Lagunitas Hop Stoopid Ale

Lagunitas Hop Stoopid Ale
First beer I've had from the Petaluma, California brewery that didn't blow me away with how delicious it is. Purchased in a 22-ouncer, the hops seemed a little mellow for a double IPA. There's a pleasant, fragrant nose, but the bold flavors don't completely translate. Not bland. Just underwhelming.
