Really enjoyed the beers and the fellowship. Planning the next one already:thumbsup:

Those who enjoyed:
1. yaris-me :drinking:
2. BaknBlak :drinking:
3. Fury85 :drinking:
4. KRAZGRL :drinking:
5. SilverBack :drinking:

Lug Nut Lager. Slight roughness and bite, full flavor, not watery. Don said, "Deutschey." I picked up a slight corn note.

Sancha Mexican Lager. Corn and banana notes. mild and smooth, great pairing with corn tostitos. It was finished and different from what I tasted earlier.


August, 8, 2010. Sacrificed myself again. Went there to check it out and forced myself to choked down 6 samples.:drinking:

1. Bulldozer Honeyweizen. Dry full flavor hefeweizen, don't really pick up the honey. I'm not really a hefeweizen drinker, but I liked this.

2. Fireman Red Ale. Slight roasted flavor, maybe a dark chocolate note with a slight hop bite at the end.

3. Fireman Brunette Ale. Sweet with roughness and hop bite. I liked this better than the Fireman Red Ale.

4. Expresso Stout. Sweet with coffee flavor, smooth and easy to drink.

5. Sancha Mexican Larger. This wasn't ready, but I asked to try it. Corn bouquet and corn notes, sweet from residual sugar with slight sour. I found this an interesting beer that many would like. This would go great with corn tortillas.

6, Hefeweizen aged in Bourbon barrel. Strong Bourbon scent and flavor. Slight sweet and sour. A Bourbon drinker will love this.

Their beers are good and have a higher alcohol content. I felt the kick later.

I've been a fan of the bulldozer honey weizen for a loooong time and have been trying to find a good time to visit the brewery. :smile:

I don't know for sure now if we'll be able to go since Ryan has back to back ice hockey games that Fri and Sat night, but I'll try to butter him up to the idea. lol

Put us down as maybe right now. I'll know better as it gets closer to the date.

Right on, Kasey (with a K;). Looking at last years reviews it looks like unlimited 6 oz glass's with growlers for 20.00 full and 10.00 refills for take home. I can't find anything on the food, though.

Good local meet and very tasty beers. But barely got a buzz after 6 pints, so maybe they can make their beers a little stronger next time lol
