I have many vices in my life. One being games, another being chocolate. I would not consider myself a heavy drinker. I don't drink to get drunk. I rarely drink hard alcohol. I do, however, love the taste of a good microbrewed or imported beer. I like a beer like I like my wine. Something you should almost chew. Not that it should be chunky or anything like that, but more than something to guzzle down in hopes of a good buzz. The beer I drink is far to expensive to just guzzle anyway.
Today I am having Terrapin Rye Pale Ale. My husband is a HUGE fan of the pale ales. This was his choice. I wouldnt say I love a Pale Ale, but it's probably in my top 5 favorite beers.
I must say this is one of my favorite American style pale ales. It has a great hoppy flavor with a little bit of some citrus behind it. Not too citrus like some wheat ales, but a nice blend.
I can honestly tell you I don't judge a book by it's cover, nor a beer by it's bottle, but the cute turtle on the label was one of the reasons I decided upon this beer. There are quite a few breweries in the Atlanta/Athens area, and this is one of my new favorites. I know they have quite a few others (by the mixed pack available with a wheat and brown ale) that I would love to try.
On to my next sip, ladies and gentlemen. I think I'll enjoy this one... Goodnight!
