Momokawa - Silver

Description - Tanrei Junmai Gingo Sake

Maker - That Guy

Notes - This was better heated than cool. It mellowed out the alcohol bite and brought out more of the sweet textures. It was a little rough around the edges.

Sam Adams Winter Lager

Description - Double Wheat Ale brewed with Spices

Maker - The Boston Beer Company

Notes - This dark ale is has pleasant hints of other spices. To be honest, it reminded me a lot of the pumpkin beers back during fall. Although, this one has more bite.

Cruising with Ruben & The Jets

Description - "BoppaDooAyDoo Style Ale"

Breckenridge Vanilla Porter

Description - 'Vanilla' Porter

Maker - Breckenridge Brewery

Notes - This one didn't taste so much of vanilla as it did metal. The attack was fine, but the tangy aftertaste was like a hefeweizen gone wrong.

Monty Python's Holy Grail

Description - Ale "Tempered over burning witches"

Maker - Black Sheep Brewery

Delirium Nocturnum

Icchorai

Description - Ginjo Sake

Maker - Kokuryu

Notes - Served cold, this sake has a hint of sweet to it, and an overall mellow flavor. When sipped out of a cedar cup, the combination is well-suited.

Samson Stout

6/10

Estes Park Stinger

Description - Honey Wheat

Notes - Another full bodied beer from Estes Park. The honey is only hinted at, and does not overpower the flavor at all.

7/10

Estes Park Porter

7/10

The Reverend

Description - Belgian Style Quadruple Ale
