Abbey Triple

Abbey Triple

12 oz single from Highland Beverage, Birmingham, AL, USA. $2.19. I simply really, really enjoy virtually everything that Sprecher does; I hope this is no exception. Pour is a nice, dark golden body with a small, white head. Retention and lace are...

Winter Brew

Winter Brew

Sprecher makes some really, really, really solid beer, in classic styles and with a nod to simplicity and excellent craftsmanship. The Winter Brew is no exception. 16 oz, usual stubby Sprecher presentation. 13276PL, 103230923 dot-matrixed on the...

Irish Style Stout

Irish Style Stout

12 oz stubbie bottle as per the usual Sprecher presentation. Thanks go out to Kevin for the chance to try this beer. The bottom line with Sprecher is that they produce some great examples of simple styles, that are generally under-appreciated...

Pipers Scotch-Style Ale

Pipers Scotch-Style Ale

12 oz, single stubbie in the usual, Sprecher presentation. Beer courtesy of Kevin - many thanks. Pour provides a reddish, brown hue with some really nice head and lace. The head is pretty thick and produces a lot of sticky residue. Nose and tastes...

Pub Brown Ale

16 oz stubbie as per usual from Sprecher - there's something really substantial about these bottles that I like. Apparently, now called, "Pub Brown Ale". Pour gives a good dark brown color, and importantly a decent clarity with good carbonation....

IPA2 (Double India Pale Ale)

IPA2 (Double India Pale Ale)

16 oz bottle presentation, the usual Sprecher, bulky "stubbies" which I really enjoy. As soon as I tasted this beer I knew that if I read a few reviews at the lower end the criticisms would be that "this doesn't really taste like an American DIPA",...

Black Bavarian

Thanks go out to Kevin (again). 16 oz bottle in the usual Sprecher presentation. The beer pours a solid black pour with a nice, creamy head and some superb red highlights. The lacing is not great. Still looks good though. The nose changes with...

Hefe Weiss

16 oz, usual Sprecher, "stubbie" presentation. Thanks to Kevin for the chance to try this one. The beer pours a hazed orange with a tea-like appearance. No head, retention or lace to peak of. Looks a little "dead". A lot of tropical fruit in the...

Scotch Style Ale Aged In Oak Bourbon Barrels

Thanks go out to fellow BA nlmartin for this beer as part of Secret Santa 2007. 1L, swing-top, impressive bottle. Shared on Christmas Day with the family. I am generally not a huge fan Bourbon based beers simply because I often find that the...

Special Amber

=== Updated Review 08/10 === Thanks go out to Kevin for the opportunity to try this beer once more. The malt nose drifts out of the bottle as soon as it's opened, and the beer seems to fulfill many of the criteria for a beer of this type - fresh,...

Oktoberfest

Thanks go out to Vancer for sending this as part of the CEO/Old Farts BIF. 16oz "big" bottle. Label looks "Germanic"! Nice appearance. Good clarity, a great orange/amber color with some head and a little lace. A high quality Fest/Marzen with some...
