I enjoyed the post about the smoked grain for beers the other week. Well, yesterday I stopped by the local beer man and he happened to have a few bottles of the Rogue Smoke Ale...
It was enjoyable, but I definitely could not drink more than one of these bad boys. It was one of those beers that you enjoy tasting, but more than one is a little too much smokey beer. Next time I drink it, I will definitely save it for a day that I'm having smoked food - see if that smokes me out too much or if it compliments the meal well.
Of course, that doesn't mean I only had one beer yesterday - I moved on to some Sweetwater 420 Ale (brewed in Atlanta), some Sierra Nevada Pale Ale and some Paulaner Hefe Weissen
