Beer fest!!!

31Mar10

Any excuse to expand the palate right? I made it to the spring craft beer festival at Nassau coliseum.

The beer selection was incredible. Unlike most wine tastings the crowd was a little more interested in libating on the magnificent beer but nonetheless most brewers came with interesting and exciting stuff.

There were a couple of highlights. Great south bay’s blonde ambition stands out. A beautiful crisp blonde with distinct floral notes. Violets and roses all day. Crazy brew.

Everything from LIBA. I hope I got the name right. Insane beers. One guy brewed an ale with roasted hazelnuts. Yum.

I can’t remember the last, I was a bit inebriated by then, but I tasted an ale brewed with grape must and aged in oak barrels. Complex.

Fun time with good friend. Thanks guys.

And to this guy….I didn’t forget about you bro!
