The Official INGO Beer Snob Thread

I stopped by their taproom after picking up some brewing supplies in August. I thought their beer was generally good.

Invite-only soft-opening of the new Bier Brewery in Carmel is tomorrow evening.

I'll let you know how it is

Second location?

Staff meeting at the Columbia Club Thursday night. They had Indiana City beer. Tried the new Son of War Blonde Ale. Amazing.

Smooth (12 IBU) and moderate ABV. Looking forwarding to trying this in hot weather.

Oh, Belgian Blonde!

I was thinking you were describing an American Blonde Ale, which no one ever has labelled "Amazing". The ones I judge highly all get descriptors like "Bland" or "Inoffensive" or "No discernible character".

Try it. I think you'll like it.

Belgians are my bag, my friend.

I love judging Belgian Blonde Ales, I hate judging American Blonde Ales.

When you come down for NRAAM this Spring I will buy you a Son of War from Indiana City.

Beer advocate is lying to you . . . as usual.

Picked up "some" super cheap craft beer and its a killer deal. The best one is the Horny Goat, Horny Blonde. The appearance is a light golden color with a thin white head. The aroma is malt and fruit (sweetness) up front with some hops on the back end. The taste is malt and grain. Overall, a good easy drinking beer at 5%, will be great for spring and summer.

The place had 3 different beers from Horny Goat and a case (24/12oz cans) was $7.99 or 2 for $10.

 

[w_ADAM_d88]

Tried the Horny Goat, Laka Laka (Pineapple Hefeweizen) today.
Too sweet for me, but might be good on a really hot summer day. Not much real hefeweizen flavor here, but more of a flavored wheat beer (maybe like a Shock Top). Pours a deep cloudy yellow and a big head. Overall, decent but really sweet.

"Some" = ...

I shared a bottle of Dogfish Head 120 Minute IPA with my cousin. I very much enjoyed it. Definitely a sipping beer at 18abv it had kind of a sweet bourbon taste to it.https://thefullpint.com/dans-blog/people-still-love-dogfish-120-minute-ipa/

Found a good one if you are into IPAs. Sierra Nevada Sidecar Orange IPA.

Not too hoppy, and the orange rounds out the flavor.

The sidecar and their tropical torpedo are both excellent! I don’t think I’ve ever had a Sierra Nevada beer I didn’t like.

I think they have one that is just over the top hops that I just couldnt stomach. I think it was double dry hopped. It was just too bitter. But overall they make good beers.

If you like slightly tropical IPA's try Voodoo Ranger Juicy Haze a try. Not overly hoppy, and has an orange/pineapple taste to it

Founders has been selling 15 packs of good berr pretty cheap lately -Azacca IPA has been on the shelves at Meijer.

It's a good IPA, not that cloudy, weak, fad s***.

Wife brought me home a 6 pack of this last weekend. Good easy drinkin summer beer...
