My buddy Don gave me a great retirement present: a
membership in a “Beer of the Month Club”! (It’s the gift that keeps on
giving!) What a fantastic way to try different microbrews from different parts
of the country!
My first shipment arrived and it was only right that I share
it w/ Don! We eagerly tried Cisco Brewers’ “Whale’s Tale Pale Ale”. (Say
that beer name as fast as you can 5x!) Check out this Nantucket Island success
story @ www.ciscobrewers.com. Whale’s
Tale Pale Ale is touted as Cisco Brewers’ flagship beer. Its name ( and label)
pay tribute to Nantucket’s whaling industry.
Both Don & I considered it worthy of its flagship title.
It pours like a classic IPA: a golden-brown color with a nice frothy head. That
sweet smell of hops is released immediately! The classic IPA taste continues
into the mouth: nice effervescence and finish! This 5.6%ABV brew would pair
nicely with a wide variety of foods- and it’s certainly tasty enough to enjoy by
itself!
Check into a Beer of the Month Club- and check out Whale’s
Tale Pale Ale too! (Did you try to say it 5x?!)
Cheers!
