Schafly #15 review-a nice amber ale with a bit of a wheat taste and a bit of caramel. Smooth. I will have a Fat Tire tomorrow and compare the 2 amber ales. Up next, the Schafly Oatmeal Stout.
Schafly's Oatmeal Stout-mild coffee-like flavor, smooth, dark brown color, not burned or bitter. I remember the draught from several years ago being more flavorful. A nice winter stout.
Precisely done with the temperature.
Not much vanilla in it. After swallowing was when I sensed it the most. That's when I could tell that vanilla had been there. Vanilla aftertaste... YUMM!
Smooth porter taste, with a touch of bitter, good alcohol level, and a nice level of carbonation. I'm glad they didn't over-vanilla it, but they are probably not using the vanilla pods as they could.
All in all, a very NICE porter on a cold November night. Definitely one NOT to trade; it's definitely one to savor.
Thanks for the bottles!
Where does one find Breckenridge Brewery offerings in the stores?

Can't remember where you do your beer shopping/hunting so I would simply suggest you visit your local purveyor of fine hand-crafted ales and survey their aisles for the Breckenridge products. Unless you want to make another road trip even farther west this time beyond Throaty-land, way beyond the Arch.
Schlafly's got their winter ale in stores now.

I had forgotten one of the many reasons it was nice to ski the Rockies-Fat Tire apres ski. A medium-bodied amber ale with a bit of toasted caramel taste, not bitter, very smooth. Next up-New Belgium Black Ale.
Gotta throw out a vote for the Sam Adams Oktoberfest. Been drinking that lately, yum yum.
