Half Acre Double Daisy Cutter

I’ve heard great things about this Chicago Beer, especially from my friend Lee Williams. So as soon I saw fellow beer blogger, Jake Koeneman, tweet about going to the brewery to pick some up, I jokingly tweeted back “Pick me up a Couple”.  Well he did and now I’m about to indulge in a 22oz bottle of Double Daisy Cutter.

It’s rare these days that I actually get to try new beers that are not local.  I’ve been drinking a lot of beers from my cellar and have not done much trading recently.  So now I need to thank my Buddy Jake for this beer, because it is exactly the type of Pale Ale I love, in fact it is very similar to the Pale Ale’s I brew.  I’m a big fan of of malty, aromatic and muted bitterness in my Pale Ale’s.  basically a hoppy English Pale Ale is what I like.  This beer with it’s tropical bubblegum aroma, big creamy malty flavor is right up my alley.

I forgot the best/worst part of this beer, my wife loved it too! Why is that bad, well I can’t get any more easily, but good because it is another beer that my wife likes.  Score! Score! Score, all the way around.
