Winter Beer

Posted on November 14, 2007 by | 1 comment

If you like strong winter beers then The Washington post has some suggestions for you. The Author had a chance to sample the following large selection of beers,  Anchor Brewing’s Co Our Special Ale, Sierra Nevada’s Celebration Ale, Clipper City Brewing Co’s Winter Storm, Old Dominion Brewing Co’s Dominion Winter Brew, Wild Goose Brewery’s Snow Goose, Fordham’s Scotch Ale, Brooklyn’s Winter Ale, Michelob’s Celebrate Chocolate and Michelob Celebrate’s Cherry and finally Mad Elf Ale from Troegs Brewing Co. I wonder how long it took the author to sample all those beers.

Must resit the urge…..

I need to stop shopping. This time I am in Whole Foods in Arlington and they are carrying large selection of beers that you might find interesting. For Clipper City they are carrying, Mchenry beer, Peg leg and the Oxford branded beer. They also have Dogfish Head: 60 min, 90 min and indian brown. For Smutty Nose: Shoals Pale Ale, IPA. Dominion: Hop Poocket and Ale. Legend had had 5 of the beers on the shelf. They also have Arrogant Bastard Ale and Ruination IPA from Stone Brewing Company and finally Avery’s Hog heaven and Rogue’s Brutal bitter. I probably missed a few on the shelf 🙂

This year Old Dominion is producing a Belgian style Golden Ale. They have brewed it using pilsner and wheat malt, along with Saaz and East Kent Golden hops. They have used authentic Belgian Ardennes yeast to give it a true Belgian flavor.

I have been hearing some rumbling for a while now, but I thought the deal was dead. Today the Washington Post is reporting Old Dominion Brewery sale appears imminent. The deal would involve Old Dominion, Ram’s Head Tavern and the beer giant Anheuser-Busch.
