SURLY BREWING COMPANY - BENDER This is one of the best beers i have tried. The smell is full of caramel malt with hints of cocoa, vanilla, and coffee. Taste follows the nose and is very good. A little hoppiness up front then finishes with the coffee, cocoa, caramel and vanilla. Very complex taste with a great balance. Really smooth, thick and creamy. Very drinkable, i could drink this anytime. One of my favorites for sure.
GRACE POTTER & THE NOCTURNALS - THE LION, THE BEAST, THE BEAT This is the newest album from GPN, released in 2012. While i really enjoy this CD, it is probably my least favorite of theirs. By no means should you take that as this isnt any good., it just shows how good the first ones actually were. This is still an incredible album. They still continue to evolve and the band is tighter than ever. The title trck song is great as well as Never Go Back, Stars, and Timekeeper. This was the deluxe version of the CD which had 4 bonus songs. Two of those are interesting duets: Stars with Kenny Chesney and Ragged Company with Wiillie Nelson. Also has a live DVD of their 2011 Lollapalooza performance. Still a great album, and i think they are one of the most overlooked and missed band around today, which is OK with me.
