Safe Harbor 1790 Semper Paratus Lager

Safe Harbor 1790 Semper Paratus Lager, 5.5% ABV 1 12 oz. bottle, $? Purchased at... oh who knows anymore I've been thinking a bit lately about these contract-only labels.

Shebeen Brewing’s Prost Oktoberfest Lager 16 ounce can, $2.82 5.6% ABV, Purchased at Manchester Wine & Liquor September 2017 Cheers! Prost! This is a pretty good Oktoberfest lager.

Rye 95

Rye 95

Rye 95 lager $12.49++ six pack, 9.5%ABV Purchased at Maximum Beverage, West Hartford This is a very strange beer.

That’s not really a knock on Two … [Read more...]

Hizzoner Maibock

Hizzoner Maibock 5 oz?, $2.00, 6.5% ABV Purchased at the brewery, Stratford One could kvetch about the "everything for a buck" mentality at Two Roads, and I've done a small bit of it here and there.

Schnickelfritz (Dunkel Lager) 1 draught pint, $3.75, 5.8% ABV Purchased at Cambridge House Brew Pub, Granby I was all gung-ho to do a page exploring the anagrams of Schnickelfritz.

Beaver Brewnette Amber Lager

Brewnette Lager 1 bottle, $1.79++, 5% ABV Purchased at Crazy Bruce’s, West Hartford [For no other reason that mildly humorous continuity, you should read at least one of the other two Beaver reviews before you read this one.
