Ale To The Chief! Exciting times. Celebrated with a couple inauguration inspired brews.
I picked up a bottle of Half Moon Bay's "Obama 08 Presidential Ale". Upon a closer look when I got home I discover it's just their Harbor Light Ale packaged up in a fancy label that features our president. Not my favorite style for sure, but there was nothing wrong with the beer. Nice and faintly hoppy. Better than the other examples of this style out there.
Also had an Avery Ale To The Chief. A double IPA from Avery Brewing in Colorado. Huge aromas of piney & citric hops. Tastes of HUGE pine & citrus oily hop bitterness with a distinct sweet maltiness. Not balanced as the hops rule the show here, but that's what a double IPA should be.
