Tomorrow May Be Christmas, But it’s Also Sunday Beer Club!
Today, however, is saturday, and we’re making up for the lack of remaining Sunday’s and drinking new beers during the week. The horror, I know.
Today’s beer is from a brewery in Belgium called De Ranke. Normally a belgian is a call for me to get more beer than normal, because Deano hates the sweet beers of Belgium. His teutonic heart beats to the meter of the Reinheitsgebot being orated in High German.
But this beer is Bitter XX, a belgian golden ale. And Dean, as you can expect, loved it. It started out like a typical golden ale and then immediately begins to hop out of that category. And it gets very sharp, very pointed in hops toward the long, lingering, end.
Apologies for my hairdo — it’s Christmas Eve and I’m enjoying myself.
