leviramsey Posted August 6, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted August 6, 2010 Samuel Adams Latitude 48 - their first attempt at an IPA in quite a long while. Ale brewed with a carefully selected blend of hops from top German, English, and American growing regions, all located close to the 48th [Parallel] within the "hop belt" of the Northern Hemisphere. The intense hop character is balanced by a slight sweetness and full body from the malt blend. Cheers! Jim Koch Almost exactly between the crazy-hoppy west coast US IPAs and the more restrained British IPAs I've had. Excellent beer altogether Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been out for a few pints of Friar Tuck and am rocking through a bottle of (Waitrose) Fitou. Got some Oxford Landing and Dow's port if (snortle/chuckle) needs be.

Nah mate not sick, Actually Dantes thread, plus an over excess in Vegas made me realize I need to tow the line, so ive gone for a lifestlye change. Trying to go at least four weeks without beer. Done one so far. Worked out and ran every day this week and ate really good, all organic food. So with work about to start back up just trying to take advantage of being busy and not really having time to get lashed all the time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope your conscience (and body) can take that. :winkold: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
