Happy Mother's Day!

With a nod to the Stones (and their mums, of course), Oskar Blues has given moms everywhere a little helper.  the President and Vice President of the Ferment Nation share a lot of things, the most important of which is our MOM.  Happy Mother's Day, Mom!  So in honor of Mamas everywhere, enjoy this re-post of Mama's Little Yella Pils from OB.

What: Oskar Blues Mama's Little Yella Pils 5.3% abv
Where: BAR (Philadelphia, PA)

Presidential Brief: Lagunitas Fusion IV

Lagunitas Fusion IV American Double/Imperial Pilsner:
American Double/Imperial Pilsner with a sticky malt backbone and grapefruity notes. Not bitter exactly but hoppy just the same. Gubna meets West Coast? Lagunitas does it again! I love it!

Samuel Adams Noble Pils (Presidential Brief)

What: Samuel Adams Noble Pils
Where: Houlihan's Cherry Hill, NJ
When: Saturday, February 19th, 2011
What-have-you: A fitting name for a proud beer. Whatever gives pilsners that slightly floury taste is prominent here, giving Noble Pils a hearty body. This is great for pub consumption but may not be light enough to quaff in the heat of summer. I guess that's why it arrives late winter/early spring.


Check out the Sam Adams Roundup we did awhile back!
