Beer #2, Straub Organic (greenies)

which is:
3.45% Alcohol By Volume (ABV) and around 0 International Bittering Units (IBU)
Served from 12Oz. Bottle to pint glass with some leftover Pizza (your gonna get a great peek into my diet here lol)

Apperance:
Poured a very clear pale (pale pale pale, like locked in the basement for a year) gold color. Bout your standard Lager type head, made of somewhat tiny bubbles. light on the carbonation.

Aroma:
Slightly astringent aroma, with just a hint of some natural hops. nothing really special here.

Taste:
Very smooth drinking beer, which comes from the serious lack of any bittering hops (not necessarily a bad thing). there is a slight taste of flavoring hops, but the rest is mostly whole grains with a slight hint of honey.

After:
Clean finish, slightly astringent aftertaste.

Overall:
One could easily down a case or so of these with no real issue. It was enjoyable to drink. However, My dad (who also was sampling this) mentioned that he tried that very same "drink a whole case" thing back in the day, and being an all grain beer, the next three days were spent "processing wheat" on the porcelin throne. Drink it in good health, just don't expect a clean getaway if you over do it.

Beer #3, Orkney Skull Splitter Ale

which is:
8.5% Alcohol By Volume (ABV) and around 20 International Bittering Units (IBU)
Served from 12Oz. Bottle to pint glass with some more leftover Pizza

Apperance:
clear deep red color, with some brown hues. Fluffy off white head consisting of fine bubbles (almost reminiscent of a stout, but not quite)

Aroma:
Slight smell of spice, not very strong.

Taste:
Strong smokey hop taste, with a touch of fruit in it. Overall, it's a very balanced taste, but I was slightly turned off by the smokeyness.

After:
Dry finish, lasting taste of spices

Overall:
Not as hoppy and bitter as say, HopDevil, but definatly darker than your average ale for sure

Score: * * * * / * * * * *
