Kevin Lara is drinking a Thousand Steps by Laguna Beach Beer Company
A clean IPA, but leaves a little left to be desired. Earthy bitterness in the end. Don’t get tangerine or blueberry notes at all. Plenty of Ryan Dick notes though.

Kevin Lara is drinking a Battlesnakes Pils by Brewery X
This is actually a fantastic pilsner. So good, I had to tick it. I know Ryan Dick would be proud. Ryan is still not the man. Crisp. Great malt aroma, and head retention is real. Give me a slow pour of this.

A lot of coffee, with a nice maple finish. I do enjoy this quite a bit.

It’s good...but age has killed this. Get the grape tootsie roll pop flavor, and then it goes away. Nice, but wish it lingered longer. Cheers

Yummy. Straightforward classic IPA goodness. Like Ryan Dick, only not as bitter and more the man than he is, which he is not.
