Once again I volunteered to pour at Arbor Brewing Company's monthly beer tasting, the first I've been to since I gave up alcohol for Lent. Last night was a sold-out affair, as India pale ales (IPAs) are popular, and many thirsty beer lovers were on hand.
I was stationed at Arbor's own table, pouring out tastes of "Batch 2000," which, as the name implies, is the 2000th batch of beer brewed by ABC. I'm actually not sure what style to classify it as, but it was much more well balanced that many of the other XPAs (X-TREME IPAS!) there.
What else to say? A great time was had by all. Looking forward to next month's bock and Trappist ale tasting!
