J.W. Lees Harvest Ale (Lagavulin Whisky Cask)

2004 vintage (which seems to be all we get in Atlanta), 275 mL bottle, $6.49 from Merchants Package Store, Johnson Ferry Road, Marietta, Atlanta, GA, USA. Pours with a really rather alarming amount of carbonation - very fizzy. Obviously this dies...

$6.95 Green's on Ponce, Atlanta, GA, USA. 12 oz bottle. 2004 Vintage. It's an extraordinary beer, in fact in many ways it's barely a beer, but it is just about what I expected. Pour is a deep orange viscous liquid with a head that disappears...

J.W. Lees Vintage Harvest Ale

=== 2004 Vintage === Poured into the small Gouden Carolus chalice, it takes on a golden brown color - a little less dark than I was expecting. Not much head or lacing, but I wasn't expecting much of course. This is absolutely typical of an English...

Moonraker Ale

Deep, deep dark colors of varying hues, but dominating by an ultra attractive ruby highlight package toward the bottom of the glass. Some head and a little lacing, but not big. The beer is fruity, alcoholic, mild, port-like and has great depth. In...
