About Me

My photo
I might just be your average 24 year old, I work full time(probably normal). I love to talk, and I can be rather opinionated. I yell a lot, and dont know it(probably not normal).
Most importantly I love to drink beer. I'll probably write about a myriad of things, but most will center around beer. Beers I like, beers I love, and beers you should like and love as well. Think there is a beer i should try? Let me know.

Aptly Named


The Grow Your Own (GYO) series from Rouge has really impressed me, and this addition in the line up is nothing short of fantastic. Named OREgasmic Ale, it pours into a stunning orange, almost amber color, but muddy'd up by the malts. It heads quite well, nice frothy fill that laces the glass as you drink. The pour carries a nice, mellow aroma, a little floral. almost peachy smelling. The hops are not very present in the aroma, but noticeable.

Each sip is just as good as the first. A fruit like sweetness at the beginning that carries into and strong, full bodied sip and ends with an almost prefect hop complement. I would definitely throw this into the American Pale Ale category. The malts add an almost oak smoothness which really settles the hops.

This bottle has made its place on my shelf and will most likely be something i pick up again in the future. I think you should make it a point too as well.
