ROBINSONS FAMILY BREWERS - IRON MAIDEN TROOPER  This has a nice sweet malty aroma with a little caramel and some lemon hints.  Pretty much smells like a typical English Ale, sweet, rich and malty. Tastes just like it smells, pretty much malt dominated and tasted like i imagine a great English pub beer would. Nothing exciting, but easy to drink, the label is cool and its Iron Maiden approved! Fun to try once, but really no need to look for again. Wish i would have had some Iron Maiden music to listen to with it, but i know i only have a cassette or two and was too lazy to look for them.

FLICKERSTICK - WELCOMING HOME THE ASTRONAUTS  I always enjoyed these guys, and still do. They came into the public eye when they were on VH1s Band On The Run (if anybody remembers that show!) and this was their debut album from 2001. Just a nice straight rock/indie/pop sound. They went through a lot of band members and eventually broke up in 2009. This record is pretty amazing considering it was a debut. Great music and lyrics made for some well crafted songs. I still pull this one out alot and listen to it. Favorites: Got A Feeling, Beautiful, Smile, Coke, Sorry....Wrong Trajectory, Chloroform The One You Love, You're So Hollywood, Hey Or When The Drugs Where Off, Direct Line To The Telepathic, and Execution By X-mas Lights. Yep, great record.
