Tonight’s beer is New Belgium’s 1554, which is listed as an “Enlightened Black Ale”. It’s made by the same company which makes the oft-mentioned (and overhyped, I’ve been told) Fat Tire.
This beer is quite good once appropriately chilled, and if I could get it in Michigan I’d probably buy it again. For now I’ll just enjoy this last glass of it figuring I won’t be getting more any time soon. (For reference, this was purchased at Cub Foods in Peoria, IL on Saturday night, along with some Soy Sauce, locally made crispy cheesey junk food things, an apple, and some muffins.)
