'member when you were a kid and you drank, like, a berry or a black cherry soda? Well tonight's tap at the Saucer was Dogfish Black and Blue, and it really was like a berry soda. Sweet, but not syrup-y, carbonated, but not to distraction. Full of berry flavors, but not too Strawberry Shortcake. It was really good. And at 10-11% abv (no one could really peg it) it went right to my head. Awesome!
I wish I really had some strawberry shortcake to go with it.
And after I finished the Black and Blue, I treated myself to a Guinness.
I hadn't had one in a really long time. What I noticed was...all the flavor that I remember, but now, now that I have a little more knowledge about beer, and a more sophisticated palate, I was really able to pick out and identify the flavors that I was tasting. Let me just say this. Guinness is a really solid, really good stout.
Can I get a shot of Bailey's so I can chug it?
