Mmmm. This is very good Belgian IPA. I think this beer may become a regular beer for me.
It is not an over the top IPA like most American IPA.

Hercules Double IPA by Great Divide Brewing Co
This is the first time that I have had this that I can remember.
Hercules Double IPA has a rich strong hop flavor with good malt backbone. I am not a big fan of IPA or Double IPA for the matter, but this beer is very good for the style. Many Double IPAs have either too much maltiness over powering the hops or the hops slap you in the face with too little malt flavor. This beer strikes a good balance.
St. Bernardus Abt 12
This is Karen’s first Abt 12, which is the highest rated beer in Alabama.
Karen was not impressed.
Gonzo Imperial Porter and Southern Pecan
Karen is drinking the Gonzo while I’m drinking the Southern Pecan.
Karen liked the Gonzo and it will go well with a steak for dinner, which we are having tonight.
St. Bernardus Wit
Wow! I think this beer is the best Wit beer that I have had.
That explains why it is the highest rated Wit beer.
Taps Handles at The Nook
I’m enjoying all of these taps. It is a rough job, but somebody has to do it.
St. Bernardus Abt 12
I bicycled down to The Nook in order to try the beers associated with Saturday Beer Event.
Samuel Smith Imperial Stout
Wow! I like this stout. I have always enjoyed Samuel Smith’s beers. This beer will be high on my list of favorite stouts.
Orange Blossom Pilsner 2
This was a very enjoyable beer. I would suggest that you give it a try. But, it has a ABV of 11% so don’t get crazy.
The orange flavor was very nice, but I like fruit beers.
Harpoon Leviathan Imperial IPA
Wow, what a beer. I think this is the best Imperial IPA that I have had. You have got to try this beer.
