The Ale
Big Sky IPA
Big Sky Brewing Co.
Missoula, Montana, USA
6.2% abv
65 IBU’s
I did a quick review of this beer back in July of 2010. Let me update this IPA.
Appearance: amber body with a light tan or off-white one finger head that leaves tons of lacing on the glass.
Aroma: light sweet malts and grassy, citrus peel hops
Flavors: moderate grapefruit, orange peel, herbal spice, malty notes of sweet biscuit, lightly toasted caramel,
Mouthfeel: flannel like texture, makes me want to put on a flannel shirt and sit by the fire; lingering aftertaste of citrus meat and light spice. Carbonation is moderate.
My Strength Rating: 6.5 – medium-full body
To the Point: a good IPA; if I graded beers I would give it a B or B+. This should be a good session IPA. I would buy more of this beer.
The Cigar
Montecristo Royal Delacroix
This is about a 12 year old cigar.
Size: 7.25 x 52
Double Corona
I don’t know the wrapper and fillers. I did not find any info on the net either.
Flavors: classic tobacco taste; grassy and grainy notes; touch of cedar; moderate earthy tones; medium roast coffee. The flavors are a little more robust on the final third.
My Strength Rating: 3.5 – mild-medium bodied overall
