The NEPA Beer Club held a beer tasting Thursday night at Sabatinis. I'll post up our list of beers, but first a few thank yous. To Lindo and the staff at Sabatinis...thanks for hosting the event and taking care of all of our needs throughout the night. I'm sure we went through a weeks worth of glassware in a night and I know it was a lot of work to clean up after the event. To Bob & Leo from Lion Brewery, thank you for joining us and sharing your knowledge and conversation. I can't tell you how interesting it was to taste beers with you both, and to gain your unique insight into the make-up of each beer we tasted. Hopefully we can get you both out to join us more often. Finally to the club members who came out on a Thursday night (some with very long drives) to share their beers and join us in the tasting...Thank you for a fun evening. OK so now on to the list of beers.....in no particular order (much like we tasted some of them):
Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout (2007 & 2008)

PS For anyone that tried Tom's brownies made with Brooklyn Chocolate Stout and would like the recipe, Clicky HERE and for anyone that hasn't been to Sabatini's lately...the beers selection is 1st class and the food is fantastic.
Wait, you went to Sabatani's and drank something other than stegmaier porter draft???
ReplyDeleteWait...who said we didn't have Steg Porter? Actually we sampled a lot of beer and it WAS a Thu night.
