I was doing some chores around the house earlier today and decided to Try the Lakefront IPA. It's a new beer to me, and I loved it. It has a clear citrus flavor along with the wonderful hoppiness of a good IPA. This tart/bitter was nice while I was getting stuff done.
I needed lunch, so I made myself a nice smoked salmon sandwich and decided that it might go well with an amber, so I grabbed one of the Capital Brewery Wisconsin Ambers I've got. It was too close to the last sip of Lakefront IPA and the Capital Amber just tasted bad. So I set it in the fridge and am drinking some water to clear my palate before I keep drinking it.
Although I've had Capital Brewery beers that I enjoyed, I'm beginning to think that their amber might not be for me. I occasionally like to have an Amber, but they aren't my first pick. I'm finding that there are more times that I go to grab a beer and think that the flavor of the Capital Amber just isn't what I'm looking for. I might have one or two left, and if I do, I think I'm going to retire them to the status of cooking beers.
