Booze...in 50 Words or Less: Goose Island Honkers Ale

Goose Island Honker's Ale
I've had a few English bitter-style beers. They never really appeal. The version by this Chicago-based brewery is no exception. There's a little pop if you really focus, but the malts are too subtle. Have to chalk it up to the genre. Too understated. Always seems flat.

Booze...in 50 Words or Less: Half Acre Daisy Cutter American Pale Ale

Half Acre Daisy Cutter American Pale Ale
Went to TJ's in Paoli for lunch. Ordered a chicken andouille meatloaf sandwich. Tasty. Copped this beer without knowing the brewer because the menu said an APA went well with the sandwich. Didn't love the Chicago-based offering. A bit fruity (raspberry?) and light on the hops.
