The last few days have been unfortunately busy, but not so busy that I missed out on a little down time here and there. On Sunday I bought myself a Lakefront Brewery eight pack sampler and had myself a Klisch pilsner. Honestly, I didn't think I would like it. I assumed it would be too light for me, but I was wrong. It had a nice full flavor and a crispness that was real nice while I was getting stuff done around the house. Now I can see why some people think of pilsners as a great summer beer.
On Tuesday, I didn't have a new beer, but one I'd only had once before. I went to Milwaukee's Old German Beer Hall and had a half liter of their Hofbrau Dunkel, a refreshing dark beer, and followed it with a second half liter. I must admit I love the atmosphere there... and the beer.
Today I tried my first porter at Waterstreet Brewery. I had heard (I believe while touring the Guinness Brewery in Dublin) that the stout was developed to be a "stouter" form of the porter. But I had never had a porter before. It's a pleasant dark beer that I will definately have again. It's not always on the Waterstreet Brewery menu, so I'll have to make sure I get back there before it's done.
So far this week has been a total success!
