Sarah and I are members of a couple of the K&L wine clubs and every month they send us a pamphlet with that month's news and recommendations along with the wine. Included in every issue is a beer recommendation. It only takes up about half a page in the 20 page volume and there are only one or two recommendations given, but they're always gems.
This bottle here was one of those recommendations...
Upright Brewing's No. Six - Rye, 6.7%
From Upright's website: "Six is a dark rye beer with earthy hop flavors and caramel malts lending an initial full palate that finishes semi-dry. The overall balance of the Six makes it easy to pair with richly prepared meats along with many harder cheeses."
I remember this being nice and smooth with very little bitterness and just a little bit of a sour finish. We had it with the fava pizza and it was great.
Just found you... where did you go?? The goodies end a year ago... come back!!
