Reviews from First Friday September 2009

Thanks to everyone who came out for the eleventh "First Friday." For those who couldn't make it, there's always next month (Oct. 2 @ 7:45 p.m.).

A run-down of the September 2009 favorites:

New Belgium Mothership Wit
Very Nice – Some licorice taste
Reminds me of my standard Blue Moon

Flying Dog Dogtoberfest Marzen
Kind of nice
Ruff ruff

Taurino Cervesa
Wonderful – Could drink 3

Maui Brewing Coconut Porter
Tastes like you’re eating the bra of a hula dancer
It’s coconut!
Coconut sack flavor
Not for me

Rogue Chipotle
No!
Finishes nice
Can taste the spice, but no smoke

Metolius Damsel Blonde Ale
Nice but bitter at the end (no one else noticed)

Lost Coast Downtown Brown
Nice
For a Brown it’s very doable
Good for a Brown

Kona Firerock Pale Ale
Liked!
No! Bitter!

Delirium Nocturnum
Sorry Brady: Too bitter

Capistrano Amber Ale
Not bad for an ale
Lighter than Downtown Brown – Duh!

Wingwalker Pale Ale
Very nice
