High Water Brewing's Central Valley Breakfast Sour

I am drinking a Central Valley Breakfast Sour by High Water Brewing in Montgomery Township, NJ.

Definite pear flavour.

Beer: Central Valley Breakfast Sour
Style: Sour - Ale
Alcohol by volume (ABV): 6.2%
IBU: 0
My rating: 3.75/5
Brewery: High Water Brewing, Stockton, CA, United States
Brewer's notes: The first release in our new Calambic Series, "California Lambic", beers inspired by and paying homage to the masterful artisans of the Lambic region of Belgium and their unique spontaneously fermented beers. Our Central Valley Breakfast Sour is a beer adventurer's dream come true. Aged in used wine barrels for one year with the finest fruit added from our very own San Joaquin Valley.

Troon Brewing's Virtue Signaling

I am drinking a Virtue Signaling by Troon Brewing at Brick Farm Tavern.

Bhavana and I stopped in at the Brick Farm Tavern on our shopping trip back from the Brick Farm Market. We tried the Virtue Signaling IPA from Troon Brewing.

Another hit! I think it tastes like a mimosa, only less sweet. I can't wait to see what Alex and Tom brew up in 2018.

NOTE: The Nikon is still broken but sometimes it works.

An excellent balance of bitter and ... not.

Venue: Brick Farm Tavern, Hopewell, NJ
Beer: Virtue Signaling
Style: IPA - Imperial / Double
Alcohol by volume (ABV): 9.3%
IBU: 0
My rating: 4.25/5
Brewery: Troon Brewing, Hopewell, NJ, United States
