Sitting down to watch Underworld: Rise of the Lycans. Beautiful night. Sunny and temps in the upper 70s. Can’t ask for better New England weather. Especially given that it rained for the entire month of June. The 6.1% ABV Speakeasy … Continue reading →

Saranac Pale Ale vs Shipyard Chamberlain Pale Ale – The Showdown

Posted on July 14, 2009 by Lost

Last night was cleaning night. Vacuuming, cleaning toilets…the whole nine yards. I wasn’t feeling sexy afterward, thus no review. Tonight is a different story. Played PS3 for 2 hours, and now sitting down with a plate of spaghetti to watch … Continue reading →

Shipyard Export Ale

Posted on July 11, 2009 by Lost

My first introduction to Shipyard was my freshman year in college. Back in those days, I had just been turned onto beer. We were poor, so we drank all kinds of college “specialties” such as Bud Ice, Ice House, and … Continue reading →

Saranac Black and Tan

Posted on July 8, 2009 by Lost

Last chance for Saranac to be redeemed. In response to my so-so reviews of prior Saranac brews, my twitter beer buddies @sarah_connors and @ConstantCritic suggested I try the Black and Tan. It just so happened that my last bottle of … Continue reading →

Carolina Blonde

I basically took the long 4th July weekend off from beer reviews. I did NOT abstain from beer. In fact I had some beers that I haven’t even reviewed yet. When I’m “off duty”, I don’t try to review. Monday … Continue reading →

Saranac Brown Ale

Posted on July 3, 2009 by Lost

So I’m running on very little sleep. I woke up at 5:15 this morning to go golfing, but this ridiculous non-stop rain stopped me from going. Once I’m up, I’m up for good, so now it’s 10:45pm and my eyes … Continue reading →

Saranac India Pale Ale

My first two Saranac brews were unsatisfying. They are also making for some boring-ass reviews! I’m cracking the IPA in the hopes that it’s got something a little more special. We’re off to a good start with a big foamy … Continue reading →
