Twisted X Cow Creek

Twisted X Cow Creek STYLE: Vienna Lager STATS: 5.4% ABV The beer is dark amber with a white head. The aroma it gives off seems slightly sweet & almost like caramel. When tasting, it is a smooth malt that has a hint of sweetness ending with a little hop. I drank a couple of these at happy hour with some appetizers and it paired very well with the food. The brewery-advertised "Tex-Mex" theme seems to fit. I will for sure look for these during the summer on a patio near me.

Ballast Point Fathom IPL

Ballast Point Fathom IPL STYLE: American Double / Imperial Pilsner STATS: 6.8% ABV Straw colored pour w/ a foamy, white head. It has a strong, citrus aroma. Almost smells of grapefruit. It's carbonated w/ a slightly sweet flavor that balances out the IPA bitterness. The cirtus hops never let the taste fall into the "too hoppy" category (sorry hop heads). This is truly a unique blend of a lager & an IPA. Very interesting to try but won't be a staple in my fridge.
