Lagunitas - India Pale Ale


Laguniats make a very hoppy IPA, not like stone hoppy or anything, but hoppy none-the-less. This beer gets 3.5/5 stars when it comes to IPA, very nice for the price. This guy will usually set you back about $8-$10 at a liquor or grocery store. I personally like to drink an IPA to mix it up every once in a while, I usually drink lots of dark beer, then switch to an IPA for something different.

Gimbergen - Double Ale


Grimbergen is another beer I picked up from whole foods, this puppy usually sells for about $9-$10 for a six pack. I was trying to find the taste difference between a double and a triple. Gribergen is dark and full of flavor, but in my opinion a little over powering. I give this beer 2.5/5 stars. If you are looking for dark and heavy and you are ready to get your ass kicked by a big brute of a beer, then this might be for you... it might also be a good desert beer, with fruit and some whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

Leffe - Blond


When I lived in the country I drank quite a bit of Widmer as it was $11 for a 12 pack. When I moved to Lake Merritt (Oaktown) I found that beer was much more expensive. This gem is $10 a 6 pack, but it is very good, I am giving this beer 4/5 stars. This is a Belgian Abbey Ale, light and sweet, with a small hint of woody after tones. This beer will get you through those summer months when you want something light, but you still want quality.
