San Antonio Flying Saucer
Look What's New:
BOTTLE: Brooklyn Hopfen-Weisse: A collaboration effort with Schneider, this Weizenbock pours a hazy yellowed orange with a fluffy white head. Nose is of tropical fruits, and yet some bublegum. A full bodied notion of bready malts, honey, and hops. This beer is dry hopped with American Amarillo and Palisade. $$$
Kulmbacher Eisbock: Brewed as a dopplebock, then frozen to remove some of the water and thereby concentrate the beer, Kulmbacher Reichelbrau eisbock is one of the classics. This beer pours a dark tawny brown with a fluffy tan head that quickly dissipates. The aroma is of raisins, black cherries, mulling spices, rum, sweet bread with some strong notes of alcohol. Similar to the aroma, the flavor is full of spiced wintertime dessert like spiced cake and candied fruit with notes of rum, anise, molasses, and dates. Be careful - this one is 9.2% abv.
Mikkeller Monks Brew: A Belgian Style Quad that rivals the best from Belgium. Pours a drak brown with aromas of light malt, loads of tropical fruits and light malt notes. Flavors are dead on, dark fruits, yeast, balanced malts and candy sugar. 10.00 ABV. $$$
Ommegang Bier De Mars: This Belgian style Amber ale is brewed with Brettanomyces Bruxellensis; a wild yeast which imparts added tartness, extra zing, and a touch of funk then dry hopped for an enhance hop flavor. 6.50 ABV. $$$
DRAFT: Allagash Fluxus: This Imperial Wit pours a hazy yellow with a large off white head. Aromas of ginger, lemon, and honey are accompanied by rich earthy spiced flavors and light sweet citrus notes. 8.70 ABV.
New Belgium Ranger IPA: This IPA is brewed with Simcoe, Chinook, and Cascade hops and weighs in at around 70 IBU's. It has a strong floral and grapefruit aroma and pours a clear amber color. It's bitter, but has enough malts to balance it out. One can detect some creamy sweetness in the body. 6.7% abv.
North Coast Brother Thelonious: This special beer is a Belgian Style Strong Ale and is named after Jazz icon Brother Thelonious Monk. Dark color with ruby highlights and a caramel malt aroma along with spices, bread and perfumy floral notes. The flavor has yeast, caramel and toasted elements and is smooth even at 9.4%. Detected a slight mocha on the finish. $$$$
Sam Adams Noble Pilsner: The 2009 Beer Lovers Choice Award Winner, this Pilsner is modeled after the orginal Czech Pilsner, and uses the 5 remaining Noble Hops (Czech Saaz, Hallertau, Mittelfruh, Tettnang, and Spalt). It pours a golden straw color, releasing a nose full of earthy pepper, fragrant spice, and floral/citrus aromas. This Pilsner is well balanced with a slightly sweet body and a dry finish. |
