Monk's Blood by 21st Amendment

This is a Belgian style dark ale brewed with cinnamon, vanilla, oak chips and dried figs.  You can really taste the vanilla and cinnamon up front.  It also has hits of chocolate and caramel and makes for an ideal dessert beer.  Smooth and slightly creamy in texture.

Margaritas Restaurant in Mystic

Meg and I decided to take a trip to mystic, CT and we ended up at Margaritas!  Meg had a Mexican Iceberg which is a frozen marg floated atop a draft dos equis... a weird combo but refreshing on this super hot day.  I had a palomos which was tequila, lime juice, sierra mist and blood orange...so good, but on the stronger side. 

Cheers

Rascals Wild Raspberry

I'm not a huge fan of fruity beer with the exception of #9 but my sister loves it.  She tried this a week or so ago when she was traveling through NC.  Here is her take on it .  Red color, full of raspberry flavor, great dessert beer or fruit beer berry finish. 

I have a ton more reviews coming soon.  Cheers

Thanks Lauren

Ps love the raspberrys in your photo!
