If you follow this blog in any way whatsoever, this isn’t surprising to you, but this will be the last beer review on this website. I’m going to be re-focusing this site back to where it probably would be best served: my own writing. So I’m closing it out with a special one.

It took some doing, and a couple weeks to orchestrate a meeting, but I was able to procure a bottle of New Belgium Brewery’s Fat Tire Ale. Quite a story, really.

A couple weeks ago, I cracked open an Abita Golden as part of a good, solid pilsner beer that I could drink more than a couple of. After ditching the bottlecap, I took a big whiff. It smelled like a skunk’s dick. As you might imagine, I got super-excited to give a taste.
