Newcastle Brown Ale is an easily available and nicely drinkable English Brown Ale that definitely deserves a try. Origin: Scottish & Newcastle Breweries, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, England Type Of Beer: English Brown Ale Nicknamed the “never bitter beer,” Newcastle Brown Ale is a signature brew of the Newcastle Brewery. First brewed in 1927 after three years of development, it began winning awards at the 1928 International Brewers’ Exhibition in London. Newcastle Brown has been in production continuously ever since, even through the material shortages and restrictions...

  The hamburger is a symbol of everything that makes America great. Straightforward, substantial, and good-natured, it is also a little bloody at times. It may come big and ungarnished, the East Coast ideal, tender and untroubled by bones or gristle, everything you look for in a filet mignon but seldom find. It may be the West Coast model, swelling with vegetation, brimming with health and well-being, piled high with all that a seed catalog can provide. A great burger, regardless of regional differences, instills a sense of optimism and fulfillment, that all is right at the table or the...

Brewing techniques, unique mineral deposits, and water qualities have all to do with the flavor of the beer. Belgian ales have a really distinct, yeasty, highly carbonated quality that is a taste all unto itself. Leffe Blonde Belgian Ale, you'll get a hint of orange and cinnamon. As we tried this 6.6 percent brew, I couldn't help but wonder how much sampling the monks did in those monasteries, if they had enough of these I'm SURE they were feeling NICEEEE. Leffe has a distinct flavor and it may not be for everyone. If your a beer drinker you should try a Belgian ale at least once, you may be...

The Ale House is a well known chain restaurant in a handfull of states including; Florida, Georgia, Illinois, NY, and Pennsylvania. I first expirenced this sports bar hang out while living in Florida. It seemed to always be the place to go for great food, beer, and some laughs with a few friends. The Ale House originated in Jupiter Florida in 1998.  Now we wont blow smoke and tell you that this is a 5 star joint. Sometimes the atmosphere is what makes it exciting. I can't speak for all of the Ale Houses but this applies to a couple of the Florida chains. All around the food is delicious...

I'd never seen the Stone Cali-België IPA in a store in New jersey before, so when I did, I grabbed a bottle of it without knowing much about the beer. Basically the Stone Cali-België IPA is an American IPA fermented with Belgian yeast. [caption id="attachment_1477" align="alignright" width="199" caption="Stone Cali-België IPA"][/caption] Pour: The head on this beer can get big quickly, be cautious, but generous as well since it is an IPA and you want a good head to open the aroma. Appearance: Thick white head, on top of a clear amber beer. Lots of bubbles rising from the bottom,...

As you may already know STEAKNIGHT is not only for the steak. We always try to expirence new beers, wines, scotches, cigars, ect..  Looking around for a new beer to try on our weekly STEAKNIGHT, I came accross a colorfull six-pack with an intresting name Troegs Pale Ale, and of course it was in the rated section of the store. I picked up 6 of these Pale Ales to see what it is all about.  In our usual fashion we crack open a few and sample them before the actual drinking and STEAKNIGHT debauchery starts. At first sight the beer is bronze in color with visible flows of carbonation form...

What I have found from drinking Dogfish Head, you'll always get something that is going to push the envelope or at least hit you with a curve ball. The Dogfish Head Immort Ale is considered an American Double, which is basically a high ABV beer catchall category, when a beer doesn't fit anywhere else. Pour: As with all beer I pour, started off standard 45° pour, but found there wasn't much head forming. So I turned the glass just shy of vertical and the beer opened up nicely Appearance: [caption id="attachment_1354" align="alignright" width="223" caption="Dogfish Head Immort Ale"][/caption] Has...

With each tasting of a Southern Tier beer I have, there is one thing I have come to rely on with this brewing company, they will do something to push the envelop with their beer that works extremely well.  When I saw the Southern Tier Iniquity Imperial Black Ale on the shelf for the first time I didn't hesitate to buy a couple bottles.  I love to try different and unique styles of beer and that is exactly what Southern Tier has been producing. Pour: [caption id="attachment_1330" align="alignright" width="231" caption="Southern Tier Iniquity Imperial Black Ale"][/caption] This beer pours...
