Purchased at: Vintage Cellar
What makes this beer different: Sweet Wine
Will I be drinking this again: Hell no.
Grade: F

Comments:
This beer is HORRIBLE, but the label on the bottle is sa-weet! It has a turtle looking like he is going into combat and it reminds me of my younger years and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles :) Ahhh, the good times ... but back to the beer. It has a bitter, yet sweet wine taste that does not come close to agreeing with my pallette. This is a no go for anyone; NO MEANS NO!

Recommendations:
Take a six pack of this to a house warming of friends you don't really like.

Beer #23 - McSorley's Irish Pale Ale

Style: Irish Ale Purchased at: Vintage Cellar What makes this beer different: Spicy, Earthy flavor! Will I be drinking this again: Yes. Grade: B+ Recommendations: Just like its big brother, the black lager, this pale ale is a winner! Smooth & crisp tones accent this hoppy ale. McSorley's Pale Ale is a mix between an English Ale and an Irish Red Ale. Word to the wise: You will find this brew quite drinkable, so don't lose track of how many you put back! Recommendations: Try pairing with a nice cut of prime rib and garlic mashed potatoes :) YUM

Beer #22 - McSorley's Irish Black Lager

Style: Euro Dark Lager Purchased at: Vintage Cellar What makes this beer different: Heavy carbonation. Will I be drinking this again: Definitely. Grade: B+ Comments: First off, what an AWESOME beer! DJ turned me onto this beer, and its lighter sister the pale ale, and I love 'em. Thanks DJ! Ok, so the bad thing about this beer is that sometimes, just sometimes it leaves you wanting a little more flavor and oomph; that being said it is unbelievably drinkable and one of the best Irish Lager's I have had to date! Any day, any night, anytime this beer is refreshing and I would put my recommendation behind it. END OF BANTER! Recommendations: A must with a corned beef sandwich or traditional Ruben! Mouth watering :)
