Heidrun - The write-up on this one by the brewer is that it is his "take on a Finnish Sahti" and that it is brewed with rye, oatmeal, juniper, caraway, honey, and black and white pepper. Strangely enough I detected almost none of those except for maybe the oatmeal and honey sweetness. I'm not always a fan of spiced ales and would likely not have ordered one until after sampling Chuck's. There is virtually no hops aroma or flavor and overall I found it to be pretty good if not a bit too sweet for my liking. There is an interesting bitterness in the finish that seemed to come more from the spices rather than hops. Definitely an interesting beer.
The Beer Wench - A Belgian IPA brewed in honor of a beer blogger who interviewed the brewer for her blog. Cloudy golden amber. Hoppy and spicy with a nose similar to a wheat. The hop bitterness lingers a bit but not overly long. A good beer by a good brewer inspired by a good beer blog. What else can you ask for?
