Day 109-Beer 109 Roscoe's Amber Ale, Roscoes Hop House, Rochester NY

Well I don't know if it was sheer thirst after the long road trip home but this brew hit the spot. It poured a dark amber colour with a full head that left some nice lacing. The aroma was made up of malts and  hints of the honey they add.  The taste was similar, well balanced sweetness from the honey and the malts with no hop aftertaste. For it's type, amber ale, this is a very good one,  I'd give it a  4 out of 5 and definitely would  buy and drink a few more of these.

Day 108-Beer 108 Bischoff Pilsner, Bischoff Privat Brewhaus, Germany

I had this beer in the car in a rest stop south of Columbia on the road trip home.  It was hard to tell  but as best as I could it poured a pale yellow-golden color with white fizzy head. Head dissipates rather quickly. The aroma was slightly skunky which didn't impress me at all. Hidden in the skunky flavour as well was hints of a sweet malt but nothing outstanding. Overall very disappointing for a German pils. 3.1 out of 5

On the Road

Spent 30 hours travelling home to Canada, the rain was brutal for the first 11 hours and the pace was at a crawl so finally we gave up and pulled into a rest stop around 11 pm to have my beer and a nap. We slept for six hours and got up and it was still raining. Anyhow got home late last night and had my nightly beer before heading to bed. Tonight I am catching up on my right ups for Friday day 108, Sat day 109 and today day 110.

Day 107-Beer 107Anchor Steam Beer, Anchor Brewing Co. San Francisco, CA

Last beer in Florida for a while, will have to have tomorrow's beer on the road so I may not enter it tomorrow unless we hit a spot with wifi. Tonight's brew was listed as made in San Francisco since 1896. It poured a deep golden/honey color with a moderate two finger head that had good retention, that left some nice sticky lacing The smell was malt heavy and the taste was similar with a nice hops finish. This would be a great beer to sip on while barbequeing on a hot summer day. Overall a good beer 3.7 out of 5.

Day 106-Beer 106 Audible Ale, Red Hook Ale Brewery, Woodinville Washington

Tonight's brew poured a hazy light golden colour with very little head and almost no lacing yet it seemed well carbonated. the smell was sweet malt mixed with tangerine and hops. the taste was fairly sweet up front from the malts with a clean dry finish with lots of carbonation. Overall a lot better than a supper clup lager that I had last night but still not a great ale. 3.6 out of 5

Day 105-Beer 105 Supper Club Lager, Capital Brewery, Middleton, Wisconsin

"Wisconsin a state of mind" If this beer is any indication it's a little boring. It poured a clear pale golden colour, with a finger of white bubbly head with little retention and no lacing. The smell was nothing to write home about, hints of bready and sweet malts along with a slight wiff of hops. The taste was a very typical light american lager, not a lot of flavour but rather subtle amounts of caramel malts, sweet grains and just a hint of hops. Overall, clean and crisp, okay but nothing special 3.5 out of 5

Day 104Beer 104 Barrel Trolly Amber Ale, World Brews Rochester NY

tonight's brew poured a dark copper/amber colour with an off white bubbly head that dies quickly leaving almost no lace. The aroma is caramel malt and hints of honey. It's fairly light and is easy drinking. It is just okay for it's type 3.4 out of 5.
