Our first in person recording. If it sounds like we are sitting in a room with nothing on the walls and hardwood floors it is because we are. We are looking at aDogfish Head Punk, their fall seasonal.
News
The Boston Brewing company is suing an Oregon man named Sam Adams who is running for mayor of Portland. Apparently Sam Adams is claiming they own the trademark on the name “Sam Adams.” Word is they are suing the national archives because their trademark is on the Declaration of Independence.
Dogfish Head Punk
- This beer is brewed by Dogfish Head in Delaware. We’ve covered Dogfish Head before and there isn’t much more to say except they make great beer.
- This beer is no exception, it weighs in at 7 percent alcohol by volume and is advertised as a brown ale
- That description is accurate as the beer pours a nice redish brown that isn’t too dark you can’t see through it.
- The taste of pumpkin comes through a lot more in this beer than in the Blue Moon we talked about last week.
- The taste is not too hoppy or malty it is a different tasting beer.
- This beer is a bit harder to get, so this might be a good preview for next year.
Next Week
We are taking a bit of break with the series. We are going to be doing a questions and answers show next week where we answers some questions we’ve already gotten so stay tuned for some beer wisdom.
