Broad Ripple Brew Pub - BRV 175

BRV 175

ABV: 6.0%

IBU: relatively low, not bitter at all and a bit sweet

SRM / coloring: Mid range

Guess what y’all? The Broad Ripple Village Association is turning 175, which is straight insane in my mind, especially since I’ve just been kicking it around the Ripple for twenty some years. Best way to celebrate that anny is Broad Ripple Brew Pub style with their new creation, the BRV 175.

The BRV 175 is a full-bodied amber with a bit of a twist to it. Instead of that characteristic tangy amber taste, this has more of a deep malty flavor with a sweet after taste. I guess I kind of picture ambers to be the perfect balance between browns, hefeweizens and pale ales, the lights and the darks. This is a unique take, the opposite end of the amber spectrum, instead of starting sweet and ending tangy / sour, this starts malty and ends sweet.

Triton Brewing Company - B-Java Brown

Getting back to beer has been somewhat hard for me and pretty much it has been all March's fault. The storm of dates, St. Patrick's day, and wonderful weather requiring cheaper mass quantity beer has really pulled me away from my roots. I'm here to say though faithful fans that I'm back and here to provide you all with some brew information.

It's been a hot minute since I've visited the boys at Triton, so when my friend who lives on the Northeast side invited me over, I had to jump on the opportunity. Final Four basketball and a couple of growlers couldn't fail in any circumstance.

The only bad part about spring and the warmer weather is that I can't get the dark beer that I love so much, it's all transitioning to pale ales, blondes and saisons. Walking into Triton though they still had a couple of options left on the menu, of which the B-Java Brown caught my eye.

Typically browns are a good middle ground between your thick porters and stouts and lighter options. I'm used to getting that dark coffee flavor with a thick ale, but with the warmer weather outside having a lighter beer is somewhat of a necessity. The B-Java Brown solves this problem; really heavy on the coffee / nutty flavor but with a crisp light body. And, since this is a variation of their sweet Brown beer, it came off smooth and seet on the end instead of the normal coffee bitter. Honestly one of the best beers I've had in some time.

Upland Brewing Co. - Schwarz Black Lager

Schwarz Black Lager

ABV: 5.3%
IBU: 25.3
SRM / coloring: 28.3, pretty much black go figure right

Winter is dwindling fast so I gotta get my dark beer fix in before everyone transitions into the lighter varieties.

Schwarzbier, literally meaning black beer, is a german variety lager that typically is characterized by those malty flavors and additives of other ales.  The only difference is the body is much lighter and it comes off smooth and crisp at the end.

Upland's Schwarz is the epitome of this style of beer.  It looks pretty scary with it's jet black color and large head, but when you dive into it it tastes about as clean as any other lighter beer option.  The smell is very strong with hints of chocolate and coffee, but take a sip and it's much more subtle, actually tasting like a classic lager.  Coming off clean makes a fantastic beer for malt enthusiasts and people just looking to try something new.  This is a good one.

Fountain Square Brewing Co.- Winter Warmer

Winter Warmer

ABV: somewhere between 3 and 8 % would be my best guess
IBU: Mid range, I'm gonna say about 40?
SRM / Coloring: Light amber to heavy red

So It's getting cold in Indiana, and then warm, and then freezing, and then wet, and then frozen again.  I truly don't enjoy what global warming is doing with us at the moment.  Forget about the polar bears, I'm just trying to survive at this point.

This flip flopping of the weather has me more confused than Michael Lohan at a PTO meeting, but one thing is for certain, the warm days seem way warmer as a result and the cold days seem way colder.  As such, you're gonna need some beer to meet both ends of the spectrum.  Fountain Square Brewing Company has got you covered for the frigid days, i.e. Monday Wednesday Friday Sunday.

Most of the time with newer anything, whether it's restaraunts or interns or breweries, you gotta give them a bit of time to really work out all the kinks.  It's unrealistic to walk into a place and expect them to be exactly on point when they just recently started business.  Still, with that being said, I wanted to see what the newest Indianapolis brewery had in store for the opening. 

I walked inside and took a quick look at the menu, which consisted of the year round standards of Blonde, Pale Ale, Amber and Porter, but when I asked the guy behind the bar what his favorite was, he recommended the winter warmer most bodaciously.  However, he warned me that it had a unique flavor with hints of spice and fruit, and that most people wouldn't go for it.  Clearly he was oblivious as to whom he was speaking with.

The Winter Warmer is definitely a different twist in the beer world but definitely not in a bad way.  It's a medium bodied Ale with spices of ginger and something else that I couldn't quite put my finger on.  The real kicker though was the hint of rasberry that pulled the beer to the sweeter side on the end.  It tasted like some kind of an exotic cookie, and a cookie that can get you a little bit intoxicated is a win win in my book.

Flat 12 Bierwerks - Glazed Ham Porter

Glazed Ham Porter

ABV: 6.3%
IBU: 34.1
SRM / Coloring: Dark as the night

Everyone typically associates the holiday season with either turkey or ham, that's just the way it is.  Personally our family goes turkey, but the ham is a golden standard that has men and women alike pulling raw slices from a dish and acquiring taco-neck syndrome to reel it all in. 

I saw this and thought there's no way that they were able to put the essence of a glazed ham into a beer.  First off, it would taste awful funky, and secondly, how would you even go about doing it in the process?  Just throw a whole ham into the fermenting tank and let that puppy marinate for three weeks?  My mind was being thoroughly freaked and so I had to try this bad dad out.

This beer is more of a complimentary style to go with while eating ham rather than actually tasting like it.  It's a super dark porter, borderline stout that starts off a bit sweet like brown sugar or caramel, somewhat similar to the glaze on a ham.  Despite all that though it has a smokey flavor added in with a kick of bitterness on the back end as if it were whiskey barrel cask conditioned.  Definitely a winter beer and for those really interested in maxed out taste.

Evanston Avenue Brewery - Old 31 Oatmeal Stout

Old 31 Oatmeal Stout

ABV: unknown
IBU: mid range
SRM / coloring: dark brown to amber

Hello again everyone!  Well it's been a while since I've written a review, the holidays were essentially a long series of good events, great events, and bad events so I've been a little occupied.  But not much can hold me back from the beer, so lets get to it.

First up is a great new beer from a brewery you've probably never heard of, and honestly might never come across.  Evanston Avenue Brewery is the home brewing operation of a friend of mine from work.  I just got hooked up with a new job (great event) and for christmas she was kind enough to give me a sample of her Old 31 Oatmeal Stout.

First off I was simply impressed by the bottling of the beer, tall brown glass with an actual bottle cap on it; pretty nice for a home brewery.  With our basic home brewing kit we have plastic screw top bottles, so this is stamped and approved official.

Now this beer is titled an oatmeal stout and certainly has the strong heavy flavor characteristic of stouts, but the real kicker here is the coffee.  From beginning to end you get a big ol hit of coffee, smell and taste, which if you're into coffee (like me) then you'll love it.  It has a medium to heavier body, and comes off just a bit sweet on the end which is unique for both stouts and coffee flavored beers.  With a little more work, Old 31 Oatmeal Stout could be a real heavy hitter.

Broad Ripple Brew Pub - Black Heart Lager

Black Heart Lager

ABV: 5.9%
IBU: mid range
SRM / Coloring: Dark as the night

Bad news is this picture is horrible with the flash.  Good news is this beer is damn good.

I had to go out and do some celebrating with the dudes last night after such a good week.  I got a new job, my other projects were coming to a close, christmas is just around the corner, just solid on the whole.  I didn't get to make it to the Brewpub for Tuesday night trivia which kinda stunk, but I still had a hankerin for a buffalo burger and some new beer.  This is one of my favorites of theirs so far.

I guess I'd have to say my new favorite type of beer are black ales.  they have that roasted malty flavor, but are medium bodied and come off clean at the end, the perfect balance of flavor and depth.  I love the black ale at Brugge Brasserie, and this one is on it's level, if not surpassing it.

The Black Heart ale is what the brew pub refers to as a Kulmbacher style, which is a german style black lager.  It's a great blend of malty flavor and bittersweet chocolate.  Drinking it on a cold rainy night is ideal, and given the poopy weather in Indiana recently any day will do.

Triton Brewing Company - Gingerbread Brown Ale

Gingerbread Brown Ale

ABV: 6.2%
IBU: 20
SRM / Coloring- Deep brown, though fairly low and translucent

Most holidays have a specific identifier associated to them.  New Year's eve is riddled with confetti and partying with an occasional splash of smooches if you 're in the right place.  Valentine's day has everything arranged in pink and red heart shapes, and I tend to think of those chalky little hearts everyone hates to love with dumb little phrases like 'UR 2 Cute.'  St. Patrick's Day (which will be amazing this year with all the breweries celebrating) has green, irish, and booze to go with it; perfect for a ginger such as myself.  The fourth of July has heat, hell yeah Americana, and of course the bevy of sparklers, snakes, and other fireworks.

Yes all holidays are marked by touch, smell, sight, and feel, but strangely enough though, only a few holidays universally have the fifth sense associated with them; taste.  Halloween of course has chocolate, sugary sweetness.  Thanksgiving is undoubtedly turkey mixed in with stuffing and mashed potatoes.  The other holidays are more generalized with how people may celebrate, but these specifically focus on a few key flavors and tastes, and Christmas is marked with eggnog, turkey, and of course gingerbread.

It starts to get cold outside and the holidays begin to fully rev up, lights go on the houses and the malls become packed with frantic shoppers, and for whatever reason I crave that spicy sweetness of gingerbread.   My mom always made intricate gingerbread houses when I was younger covered in candy and frosted icing, and despite how nice the presentation was you always just wanted to rip it apart and snarf it down.  I get the same feeling when drinking Triton's gingerbread beer, this time it's just liquified.

The gingerbread brown is a deeper brown lager infused with that spicy characteristic associated with gingerbread cookies.  It's a medium bodied beer, which is nice because most winter associated beers are ales and thus full bodies and super thick.  This one has the spicy smell and gingery taste of gingerbread and comes off sweet and clean just like the cookie.  It's not likely to top egg nog as the pure christmas drink, but it'll do everything but disappoint.

Thr3e Wise Men - Hubbard and Craven's Porter

Hubbard and Craven's Porter

ABV: 6.0%
IBU: 36
SRM / coloring: Deeeeeep Brown


About a year ago Thr3e Wise Men opened and I jumped on as an employee.  Back then the beer list was much larger than it is now.  It consisted of the Double IPA, single IPA, Blackberry Wheat, Blonde, Imperial Stout, Amber, Nap Town Nut Brown, and the Porter.  However, the place literally blew up; the lines were out the door, and the demand for beer and pizza was too high that they couldn't make the beer fast enough for the hordes of people coming through.  So, as a result, the brewery was forced to reduce the number of beers they made so they could make more of the ones that mattered.

The choice made perfect business sense as they needed to meet the demand of consumers, but it really stunk for people who are real craft beer drinkers.  The beers they chose to keep year round were the Double IPA, single IPA, Blonde and Blackberry wheat while the rest were turned into seasonals.  I didn't see the point in having two kinds of IPA's on the menu year round, or a fruity beer for that matter when the blonde already had a citrus taste to it, especially when the porter, amber, and nut brown were so popular.

I guess the company wanted to cater to the average beer drinker and women who aren't too keen on beer, but they left out the majority of the people who would be interested in going to a brewery; men who like rich and unique beers.  If someone were to choose to go to a brewery, it would be for the sake of the beer, and I know literally no one who gets off of work and says to themselves, "I could go for a brew, but there just aren't that many blueberry flavored options."  According to the Pareto principle, 80% of the effects come from 20% of the causes, which applies to business as well; i.e. 80% of your profits will come from 20% of your consumers, those who really love what you got.  You have to know who your real fans are and cater to them, and Thr3e Wise Men strayed away from the beer aficionados around town by only offering lighter options year round.  Still, their seasonals are coming back full circle, and the Porter is the first to be brought back from the original menu.

Next to the Double IPA the Porter is my favorite beer at Thr3e Wise Men.  It's made with Hubbard and Craven's coffee grounds, and there are hints of toffee and chocolate infused in the flavor as well.  It's a dark, full bodied ale and thick to boot, so it's like having a little snack before getting to our pizza and wings.  It has a nice roasty, malty flavor to it, and the coffee is really prevalent on the front end, then finishes smooth.  Just in time for the first snow.

Brugge Brasserie - Cerne Pivo

Cerne Pivo

ABV: 5.0%
IBU: 5, low and smooth
SRM / Coloring: Deep red / mahogany


I'm doing some work at the local coffee shop in Broad Ripple on a dreary and rainy afternoon, when all of a sudden the temperature drops and I'm talkin it hits the floor.  I turn around to look outside the window and there is a snow storm going on outside of me, a thick wet snow coming down hard and just blanketing cars.  It's the first snow of the season, so I wrap up my booboo and go for a beer at Brugge.

I run into Ted, Brugge's owner and brewmaster, and we get to talking about what I had and he filled me in about what what Cerne Pivo actually met.  As with German beers where Bock means strong beer, Pils means light lager, and Dunkel means dark lager, the same classifications exist in other countries.  The Cerne Pivo is a Belgian style beer, which literally translates to dark beer.

This is a dark lager with a medium body, which is loaded with taste and flavor but still easy to drink and refreshing.  It has a nice hoppy touch which is very prevalent in both smell and taste, but what always impresses me about Brugge's beer is how they can somehow manage to balance their darker bitter beers on the back end.  Similarly to their Black, the Cerne Pivo has a full taste but then comes clean and a bit sweet.   This is a good enough beer to be featured year round, as it's easy drinkability and dark mixture of flavors would work in a bunch of different settings and please a wide range of beer drinkers, casual and connoisseurs.

Flat 12 Bierwerks - Nunmoere Black ABA

Nunmoere Black ABA

ABV: dunno
IBU: ugh
SRM / Coloring: Jet Black

I was kind of disappointed in myself on this one.  I got a tweet from Flat 12 about the tapping of their bourbon barrel Nunmoere Black ABA on the tuesday before Thanksgiving, and without reading the tweet fully (which in itself is monumentally idiotic since it's less than 150 characters) I assumed that the tapping was for Black Wednesday.  For those of you who are socially inept, Black Wednesday is the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and one of the biggest drinking days of the year.  Everyone comes back in town and wants to go turbo max with old friends before being tied down with the family.

I thought, "Oh what a grand idea, tapping the American Black Ale on black Wednesday," only it wasn't on Wednesday.  The tapping was for black Friday, so I show up at the Brewery for an unveiling and it ain't happening.  No sweat though, there's still beer to be had, and on tap is the original Nunmoere Black so I decided to go at it and give it a review.

I wish I had made it downtown for the bourbon barrel Black tapping because it would undoubtedly be fantastic.  Bourbon barrel aged beers tend to have an oaky / smokey flavor added to the beer which would have complimented the hops and bitter taste of the Nunmoere, just like being next to a bonfire.  However, the regular Nunmoere was somewhat lacking that extra edge and just came off as being dark and bitter with little other character.  This would be a beer to sample alongside the bourbon barrel cousin so you can really notice the difference the barrel adds.

Upland Brewery - Winter Warmer Barley Wine

Upland Brewery - Winter Warmer Barley Wine

ABV: 8.5%

IBU: 46.7

SRM / Coloring: 18.5, medium brown to red

Helios pale ale and some Floribbean Flair was awesome, excellent combination, add some sun on my back and sand between my toes and it would be damn near perfect. After that though I wanted to try one of the seasonal's that Upland had going on, so I went up to chat with the lovely young woman standing behind the counter.

"Good tidings fair vendor of beers and enjoyment," I sexily proclaimed. "I would like to inquire about your most recent addition to the list of artisian alcoholic beverages."

"Indeed gov'nor," the handsome woman replied. She was a vibrant breath of alternative style and feminine allure that draws in the usual customer with smiles and quirky acts of intrigue and childhood sweetness. She wore a mottled green satin gentleman's jacket with a ruffled collar, over black knickerbockers complimented with a worn top hat.

"What'd my lord be interested in this evening?" She was also a street urchin character actor circa sixteenth century England.

"I've recently tried your Helios Pale Ale, to my utter enjoyment, but I must confess that currently my mood has changed. I'm looking for a drink much darker to warm my spirits on this windy Autumn's night."

"Too right you are suh, might I be reccomendin the Winter Warmer barley wine? It'll put you in a good spot it would, even when you'd be out on the cobblestones makin your way back to the mrs. you'd be feelin top notch you would yes suh."

"Pour me a tankard then," I proclaimed as I threw her a sixpence. Naturally she bit it to see if it was real, since she's a sixteenth century street urchin.

A beer couldn't have been named better. The winter warmer is a barley wine variation, thicker than most other beers and stronger to boot, but also has a greater emphasis on the grains and spices added into the mix. As a result is has more of an earthy flavor to it, and you can really taste the malts and grains mixing around in it. It's got a full body and maxed out flavor and aromas. Where as the Helios lager is more prone to cool you off on a hot summer day, this baby will bring out the color in your cheeks and your face as well, heating you up from your head all the way down.

Broad Ripple Brew Pub - Sparky's Chocolate Milk Stout

Sparky's Chocolate Milk Stout

ABV: 5.6%

IBU: No idea

SRM / Coloring - Deep brown

As a kid I always went for the chocolate milk. For whatever reason, my parents had a constant supply of Ovaltine, which was alright if I really needed to get my fix, but the real pros got actual chocolate milk or mixed in some chocolate syrup. Twas the best way to enjoy a sweet, thick treat at lunchtime to go with my PB&J sandwich and chips and salsa. My friends, this is how an adult should enjoy a chocolate milk.

The Brew Pub's Chocolate Milk Stout is brewed with fifty pounds of dark belgian chocolate and a bag a milk sugar, and there's no mistaking it when you take a whiff or a taste. Seriously, it tastes just like a tall glass of chocolate milk, which was incredibly surprising to me when I took my first taste of it last night. Most of the time porters and stouts will be infused with chocolate, so you know it's there but other flavors compliment or overpower it. Not here, you get all beery-chocolate.

It's a fantastic autumn / winter drink; cold outside on a November evening whilst RR and myself sip on chocolate beer, surrounded by wooden cabinets playing an impossibly hard round of trivia.

Upland Brewery - Komodo Dragonfly Black IPA

Komodo Dragon Black IPA

ABV: 6.5%

IBU: 65.5

SRM / Coloring: 49.6, jet black

Here we go baby. Having worked in a brewery before I've gotten to try a black double IPA which was fantastic, so seeing this on the chalkboard at the Upland tasting room I had to see what was up.

As a black IPA, or also referred to as an Imperial IPA, it has the initial properties of an IPA, but then is infused with the malts to add more flavor. This can draw away from the hoppiness of the beer, but at the same time it makes it more bitter.

The Komodo black IPA is pretty good, but I wonder if it would be better if they simply focused on one major aspect of the beer; the malt or the hops. Whether that is an issue with Upland's take on the beer or just the nature of the beer itself, who knows. You can definitely notice both aspects, but they're subdued due to one another's presence. I will say it is much smoother than most imperial stouts I've had, but the malt simply overpowers the normal kick of hops that a standard IPA is known for. At any rate, it's a unique and complicated beer with subtle flavorings that push the boundaries of how beers are made a classified.

Sun King Brewery - Wee Mac Scottish Ale

Wee Mac Brown Ale

ABV: 5.3%

IBU: 23

SRM / Coloring: Amber / Light brown

For those of you living in the Indianapolis / neighboring area, you've definitely heard of this brewery, and if not you need to get on your game. Sun King is one of, if not the largest brewer in Indy and the only one that actually packages their beers to sell in stores around the area. Their Wee Mac beer is one of their consistent favorites and one that they can, so you can buy it in four packs. I was downtown the other day and dropped in to get a growler, and decided to review this Hoosier beer standard.

This is a Scottish Brown ale, which means that it is going to have little bitterness from the hops and mostly defined by some caramel and malty flavors. It essentially is a more flavorful medium body ale, and a good middle ground beer. Sun King adds toffee into the mix to enhance the malty flavor with a little more edge to it. This would be the place to start for people looking to expand their beer repertoire; it's not a basic pilsner and the malt infusion and toffee flavoring adds complexity to a light / medium body.

Flat 12 - Joe Brahama Brown Coffee Ale

Joe Brahama

ABV: 5.1%

IBU: 28.5

SRM / Coloring: Deep Brown

Honestly they should call this Coffee Bitch Slap Brown Ale. RR and I ran down to the Flat 12 brewery on October 28th for the Bloody Blonde tapping party, which I might add is a fantastic blonde variation (see RR's post for more), but it isn't quite my cup of tea. In the tasting room I asked the guy behind the bar for something darker, to which he said,

"Well we got our standard porter and our milk stout. And then there's our Brahama, but that's pretty intense."

Either he was just giving me fair warning or he was a true salesman trying to peak my interest, at any rate I had to go for it. In the beer world, this would be a middleweight title contender, light in body but with a strong southpaw jab that can put you on your ass. In both smell and taste you get an intense coffee punch to the senses, but it isn't a thick smooth taste like with a porter, it's more of a sharp clean taste almost like an iced coffee. It looks like a porter, it smells and tastes like a porter, but it has the body of a bock or a lager. It's a crisp and cool beer with that strong coffee bite on the front, but instead of the bitter end with a normal cup of coffee you get a smooth sweet after taste which they attribute to infused lactose. Not a beer for the faint of heart or taste, you gotta know you want a strong and flavorful drink.

Brugge Brasserie - Black Ale

Brugge Brasserie – Black

ABV: 6.0%

IBU: 30

SRM / Coloring: jet black or dark ass brown

This probably has to be the best beer I’ve reviewed so far. Normally with darker beers there is an overpowering bitterness as with an Imperial stout or thickness like with a porter. But this bad boy pushes past those boundaries and personifies a smooth and rich dark beer that comes off clean.

The Brugge Black is a Belgian style black ale, which is infused with malts and other robust additives like chocolate to give it it’s dark flavors, but for whatever reason is not as dense or intense as porters or stouts. It’s a unique type of beer that I have yet to encounter from a micro-brewery around here, which speaks to the creativity of Brugge’s brewing team (this is a shout out to you Ted) as well as their broad range of beer options. Remarkably the Black has a big hit of chocolate roastiness, but then ends a little bit sweet with a hint of fruit…wtf.

It’s actually a shame that most people are scared off by darker beers, partially because they simply have never tried one that blew them away, and partially because they have an idea of what beer is and it isn’t dark. If you ask the people around Brugge what their best beer is, you’re undoubtedly gonna get those die hard Tripel de Ripple fans, but if you are interested in trying a super dope dark beer, go with the Black. I promise you’ll be more than surprised.

Broad Ripple Brew Pub - Monon Porter

Monon Porter
ABV: 6.0%
IBU: no idea, but it's pretty smooth, not too bitter
SRM / Coloring: malty rich brown





The Brew Pub's porter is a smooth and simple cask conditioned porter. For those of you who don't know, cask conditioned beers are unfiltered and unpasturized beers that are fermented twice in a separate tank, keg, or cask. As a result, they're naturally fermented and taste different than your traditional beer. If you ever go to a brewery and ask for one, you'll see the bartender pulling really hard on a large black handle, which literally uses pressure to suck the beer right our of the cask and into the glass. Pretty cool.

This porter is characteristically smooth for a cask conditioned beer, which could come from the lower amount of carbonation. It has a thick malty taste with subtle essences of coffee and chocolate, but it's a modest dark beer that would satisfy real lovers of malty beers as well as people just looking to try something new.

Bier Brewery - Smoked Brown

Smoked Brown

ABV: 5.8%

IBU: 16

SRM: 17

Smoked Brown

When it comes down to it, I'm a dark beer man. Being a college graduate I was cultured to drink the normal "bottom of the barrel" options like Natural Light, Busch Light, Keystone Light, and now Boxer Light which, I have to say tastes like what I imagine horse piss would taste like. After four years of going after runny, light and tasteless beer, anything dark and flavorful tastes like a Tiesto rave in my mouth.

When RR and I walked into the Bier tap room and up to the bar, I asked the guy for the darkest thing he had, and he gave me a sample of their Smoked Brown, which truly lives up to it's namesake. In smell, color, and taste this brown has a smoky essence to it, all of which reminding you of a wood grill and smokehouse flavor. It's a very thick and malty brown which has the darker flavoring and color of a porter but drinks like a lager. Looking at the beer it has ideal coloring and body, dark brown with outlines of red and amber, but the unique thing about this brown is that through the middle it is so thick that you can't see any light through it at all; no translucence, again similar to porters and stouts.

Overall it's a good beer, robust smoky flavor and a good middle ground between light and dark beers. However, past the malt and smoky flavor, there isn't much else in the mix. Most browns would have hints of nut, chocolate, carmel, or other additives with a somewhat sweeter edge on the back end, but the smoky flavor either completely dominates everything other flavor or there simply isn't anything else. If you like smokehouse cheese, BBQ, campfires and burning leaves like every manly outdoorsman then this would be the beer for you.
