So, until he can consume alcohol again in July, I'll be drinking a beer for him. I'm that nice of a guy.
The first Beer for Smart@ss was a Hennepin. I really enjoyed drinking this one for him.
This hoppy, farmhouse style ale has a champagne like effervescence with a crisp but light on the tongue finish. Similar to the Belgian Saison style , this beer serves well as an aperitif. Hennepin has a majestic golden hue. The style is called Grisette or farm house and is considered to be in the domain of the Belgian Saisons.It definitely had a little bit of that farmhouse funkiness too it, nothing too overpowering, but was just the right amount of ... um... that weird flavor.
This will be a recurring segment on the vbg-log, so, if anyone else wants to have a drink for smart@ss, just let me know.

Sign me up to have a beer for Smart@ss! I can pick a local beer if you/he prefers, perhaps something only available in Arizona (NOT Chili Beer). Say the word, I'm there.
Can you have something on Monday, and then if you write up a review, I'll link to it here.
Thanks Michael.

You bet. I'll have a local beer with limited distribution, post it at Beer Rant on Monday about midday and shoot you a note here. (MLK Day by the way.)
