Terrapin Beers from Athens Georgia

I purchased a 12 bottle package of Terrapin beers; 3 bottles of 4 different types of their beers; India Style Brown Ale, Rye Pale Ale, SunRay Wheat and Golden Ale.

I tried the India Style Pale Ale first:

Terrapin India Brown Ale

It was an excellent, malty slightly hoppy ale. As with most of ales, you must (and I stress MUST) let the beer warm up before you enjoy it. The taste changes a lot with about 10 degrees of warming. Try to drink this one around 45 degrees. You will thank me later.

I'm going to try these others soon and post my opinion then.

Coming Soon - Terrapin Beer Review

Last weekend I purchased a 12 pack of Terrapin Beers from Kroger. I've not had a chance to try them yet as I had some other beers in the fridge to clear out first.

I've tried their Rye Pale Ale first years ago in Ted's Montana Grill and I really liked it.

This is an excellent example of how to support local microbrews in Georgia.

Will post a more complete review later.

Happy 2009

I resolve to update this blog more frequently :-)

It was a good 2008 for us, but not for lots of other people and that makes me sad. We are going to make more donations to charity this year, while we can, to help others less fortunate than ourselves.

Happy 2009 folks, try to do good for others and not think of yourselves so much.
