BRAU BROTHERS BREWING COMPANY - MOO JOOS The aroma is just what you would expect from the style; roasted malts, chocolate and coffee. Decent flavor, malts and chocolate but the coffee is a little on the bitter side. Something just seemed a little off though, hard to place but just seemed a little unbalanced and is a little thin. I wanted to like it more since it is a Minnesota brewer, but it just didnt do it for me.
TALLGRASS BREWING COMPANY - HALCYON UNFILTERED WHEAT Another Tallgrass beer, and another winner. This is the 3rd brew of theirs i have tried lately and all have been really good. Nice aroma, starts out a little floral followed by some faints malts, wheat, and lemon. Nice sweet citrusy taste with a little subtle spice. Nice balance, really enjoyed this one, even though its a year round beer, i think it would be an exceptional summer beer. Nothing major stands out, but just a great wheat beer.
BELLS BREWING INC - AMBER ALE Another Bells beer. Smell has a strong malt prescence with hints of caramel, grass, and some fruit. Taste follows the nose, mostly caramel malts with some citrus flavors. As with most Bells beers (to me), nothing flashy or out of the ordinary, but just another solid offering. They really do a good job on everything i have tried that they produce.
DAVE MATTHEWS BAND - 09-15-10 This is a bootleg of their concert at the Excel Energy Center in St. Paul, Minnesota. Luckily, I was there and I remember thinking at the time that i had never seen the Excel as packed as it was that night. DMB always put on a great live show, and this was no exception. All the greatest hits and i really enjoyed when they brought out the horns section from the opener, Black Joe Lewis And The Honeybears for the last few songs. Never miss DMB when they are in the area. CD artwork created by myself from the show poster. Always nice to get a copy of a show i have been to.
