A little taste of what's to come...

Schudy came across some old labels and critics from a past Beer Of The Month, in the back of my car. So in order to try to kick off the BOTM blog, I am going to post these for all to enjoy. I don't know what month this was, but it was definately a few months ago. The scoring is a follows: 1-Avoid this beer at all costs, 2-I could have another, 3-Good choice, and 4-Gotta have it again.


1. Whitbread Pale Ale - I don't remember who brought it but it scored a 2.5 from Lee, a 2 from Robbie, and a 3 from John.


2. Yanjing - I brought this and it had the lowest scores of the night. It scored ones from Jonathan, Robbie, and John. The comments were: too tangy for beer - Jonathan, watery, chinese - John.


3. Liberty Ale, Anchor Brewing Co. (San Francisco) - Liberty was well accepted with scores and comments like: 4-"A good. full-flavored beer" Jonathan, 3-"How could you rank a beer named Liberty any lower?" the Master, 3-"Nice" Lee, 3-Robbie, 4-"Soild" John.


4. Full Sail Amber, Full Sail Brewing (Hood River, OR) - 3.5-"A good, tasty amber in the company of amber's that is" Jonathan, 4-I can't read his hand writing, but it is something to affect of "good beer" James, 4-"Best all night" Lee, 3-Robbie, 4-John


5. Budweiser, Anheiser Busch (St. Louis, MO) - Schudy has this thing about bringing most common beers in America. He has been known to bring "The Beast," "The Silver Bullet," and on this particular night, some Wisconson Champagne, the King of Beers. Here are the reviews: 1-"Schudy please" Jonathan, 4-"Bottom line" Schudy, 3-"Solid" Robbie, 2-"A classic" John


6. Bohemia Beer, Mexico - James brought this beer as you can tell from his comment. 4-"Smooth and solid" Jonathan, 4-"It seems like I am cheating, but I picked the best beer" James, 3-"Pretty good" Lee, 4-"Viva cerveza" John
