Hop in the City

Dennis and I went to Schlafly's Hop in the City event today.

Mmmmm, beer!

We only made it about half-way through, sampling 16 beers. It is good to do this event with someone you don't mind sharing a glass with.

We find common ground in beers like the Imperial Stout and Spiced Porter.

Dennis liked the high alcohol Quadrupel, which I did not care for because it had a definite alcohol aftertaste. I liked the American Brown Ale, which he found too hoppy for his tastes.

Speaking of hoppy, the festival beer this year was an American IPA. Whoa baby, it tasted just like chewing on a sage leaf out of the garden.
