Sampling While I Wait

As I sit here, impatiently waiting for the yeast to finish its job in Robust Porter: Experiment 1, I figured, since SWMBO is out at a sneak preview of The Hunger Games, that I had some time to sample some commercial brews. Some are rather common beers that I have never had for one reason or another, while others are some brand new brews by some of my favorite craft breweries. I got a six pack and a bomber from a local Italian restaurant that has an impressive beer fridge.

I picked up Leffe Blonde, a Belgian Blonde Ale, Pilsner Urquell, a Czech Pilsner, and Anchor Steam, a California Common. Those are the more well known of the 7 examples.

I also have Weyerbacher Heresy, Allagash Black (that's the bomber), Magic Hat Single Chair, and Brooklyn Brewery Monster Ale. The Monster may have to wait, since it's a barleywine and I may have to work tomorrow. We'll see how it goes.

Not that its that popular, but I use Pintley.com to track and log all of the beers I try on for size. It's one of the most used apps on my iPhone.
