Beer Review #68: Goose Island Fleur

09 Jul

Style: Belgian pale ale

Menu description: Belgian style pale ale, blended with hibiscus & kombucha tea.

ABV: 5.2%

Tasting notes: Definite tea flavors, with some sweetish overtones. I don’t know what the he’ll hibiscus & kombucha tea taste like, but if it’s anything like this beer they’re pretty great.

Rating: 4/5

  One time, at band camp work, I gave a bunch of good restaurant recommendations. One of my friends was all like “You’ve given us some great recommendations! We’re coming to you whenever we’re going out to eat.” Because I don’t always think things through, I decided to create a website where I can review local (LI/NY at the time) restaurants. Also I am a fatty, hence the name of the site.

  That was how it started. I am notoriously lazy and didn’t update more than once or twice a year, if that. There were some dark times, but I am setting off on a renewed venture (Narrator: he stalled almost as soon as he started up again) to bring you not only food reviews from wherever I am stuffing my face (I’ve been to CA and back to NY!), but also infinite beer reviews, because who doesn’t like beer?

  Communists, that’s who.
