ATWATER BREWERY - VANILLA JAVA PORTER Great smell, vanilla bean aroma with a hint of chocolate and roasted coffee. All that stands out in the taste is the vanilla, just a hint of the coffee. The vanilla kind of overwhelms, everything else takes a back seat. Pretty thin for a porter though, without the vanilla i think i would consider this a pretty weak beer. Easy to drink and could probably pound a few quite easily, but nothing that really stands out and screams to try it again. Just average.
JASON ISBELL AND THE 400 UNIT - JASON ISBELL AND THE 400 UNIT Second solo album from Jason, this time with his new band. Nice step forward from the debut, this one seems more produced and polished. Great lyrics, great musicianship, some nice southern soul and rock music. Although i liked the debut a little better, this one continues to grow on me with each listen. He is really starting to set himself apart from the Drive By Truckers sound. I think my favorites are: Streelights, Cigarettes And Wine, and Good.
