Better Drinking

Homebrew tasting - October 14th

The following message is from Michael Roth, who recently hosted a good homebrew tasting:

The homebrew tasting went very well last Friday night. We had 13 for the tasting including a new beer appreciator - Sarah Doster!

Food was excellent and in abundance - various wings, dips, chips and humus, pigs in a blanket, stuffed mushrooms, cheese & crackers, Michelle's famous BBQ meatballs, Dorothea's famous pizza dip, Rosemary potatoes, veggies and dip (eat your hearts out).

Yours truly started things off with a beer I had presented fresh at the last tasting and has really mellowed and smoothed over time - our BBS Scottish Ale. Next was our BBS Hazelnut Brown Ale.

Jeff was next presenting two wonderful brews: an Imperial Porter and an Oktoberfest (both were very tasty).

Chuck Greenwald then described and we sampled his Wee Heavy Scotch Ale which has only gotten better with time!

And I finished things off with my two latest: a BBS Choco-Vanilla Stout and BBS clonebrew of Bert Grant's Perfect Porter. (for those of you who aren't aware, BBS = Braselton Beer Snobs) ;-)

We actually had two more beers planned from Josh Cunningham who unfortunately was not able to attend the tasting. Maybe next time!

Our thanks to all those who attended and all who brought their homebrews to sample.

Looking forward to more.

Michael (& Sarina)
