Mmmmm....Beer.

The Lion's Pride Brewery in Brunswick has come up once too many times recently as a beer lover's Mecca for us not to take a pilgrimage...and so pilgrimage we did. We were not disappointed. It would have been good even if we had been left to our on devices, but we were treated to Ryan, the waiter. He probably knows all there is to know about beer and did not lead us wrong once, through all 6 beer "courses." Below are the beers and their descriptions (the descriptions are not ours, but as described on the Lion's Pride beer menu...far better than anything we would come up with.)

AG #1: Sasion dErpe-Mere: crisp aromas of citrus, fruits & yeast, smooth, bitter finish
AG #2: Tsmisje Wostyntje: dark amber and spiced with Torhouts' mustard
AG #3: Covee de Angelique: Abby style Belgian dubbel, malty and sweet

PK #1: Weyerbacher Hops Infusion: heavenly hops flavor with earth sharp citrus note
PK #2: Jacobins: not on the menu, but a solid recommendation from Ryan
PK #3: Old Rasputin: Rich and intense with robust palette, nice warming finish

At any rate, we enjoyed a good meal and delicious beer and have every intention of returning soon to further our beer education.
