Haven’t caught up on the beers I’ve sampled in a while.  Lets give it a go.

First up, a great couple of summer beers, a la my deck.  Two great American “micro-breweries”.  I italicize as both are bit bigger than that now, but both still have a great product.  Brooklyn Lager and Samuel Adams Summer Ale.

Next up, we have a memory from our Antigua trip in April.  Had never seen it before in Calgary, so had to buy it.  Unfortunately, not as good as I remembered it.  Carib Lager.

Had this one in Newark, New Jersey.  Yuenling lager.  Oldest brewery in the USA?  Excellent beer.

Next up, another beer out of Antigua, Wadadli.  Liked it, not a main brand like Carib, a real local beer.

To quote a great man, “Stay thirsty my friends.”

    I’d have thought at this point that Sam Adams was available in most of North America.
    Still a great brewer though, despite their growth.

      I debated that. Sometimes they are called craft brewers Sometimes not. Still not as big as coors or Budweiser.

        I’m trying to recall vaguely remembered history here, but I think the brooklyn brewery or one of the ones in that are) was also a contract brewer,making and bottling other peoples beers under whatever label it was.
