I’m trying something different this week; I thought it would be a change of pace to highlight a variety pack and focus on a different company every few weeks. What better way to get perspective on a company than to try a few different beers all in one place? Plus this is cheaper than going to a bar, and I can take my time to enjoy the brews. For my first outing I decided to try Peak Organic and see what they’re all about.
The first beer from this box I tried was the ‘Brewer’s Choice’, which happened to be

Narragansett, Summer Ale
by J Frazzetta on May 23rd, 2011 | Beer
Bottle/Tap: 16oz Can
All you have to do is look out a window and see the seasons change in New England. That used to be how I would gauge the change in climate, I have a new method now. When I see a box on my doorstep from the folks at Narragansett, it must be a new seasonal brew, and I should start wearing lighter clothing. Truth be told, waiting for me the other day were a few cans of their new Summer Ale. I welcomed them in and thought to put them to work right away.
After some chill time

Geary’s, Pale Ale

Not all pale ales are created equal and there is proof in this bottle. I have had many different pale ales: some good, some bad and each a little different than the last. Which brings me to this week’s beer. Oh, it looks like a normal pale ale, but don’t be fooled, there is something different about the taste of this brew.
For starters, this had a good copper color in the glass after it had been sitting in the fridge for a while. Before I took a drink, I noticed the aroma of the beer was kind of strange.

St John Brewers, Virgin Islands Tropical Mango Pale Ale

Just when I thought that I had every kind of fruit beer – blueberry, apricot, watermelon, strawberry, raspberry, snozberry – I find a mango flavored ale. The part that really caught my attention was the fact that this was a pale ale and not some kind of lighter beer. Most fruit beers focus on the fruit flavor and the beer is comparable to a hefewiezen or some other light bodied brew. When you turn a pale ale into a fruit beer, you get my attention and then I have to drink, and drink I did.
First and foremost, this

Beer Review: Fizz’s First Pale Ale

Here we are folks, the fruits of my labor, my very own beer. To be honest I’ve already had a few bottles, I just wanted to make sure they tasted better than the first one I opened. My problem was that I opened it too soon and should have given it another day or so. I did find that if this sits in the fridge for a day or two it helps with the flavor.
This is your basic pale ale, refreshing with a very crisp taste. I actually was impressed with the quality of product that was produced,
