Geez Louise it is hot and humid out today. And for one of the few times in my life…I have nothing more to say. Off to the beer…
Beer #192 is Drake’s Crude by Erie Brewing Company from Erie, Pennsylvannia.
Stats – Oatmeal Stout with an ABV of 6.9%
Appearance – Very dark brown, possibly black, no head
Nose – Light aromas of roasted malts, chocolate, slightly burnt smelling
Taste – Even lighter flavors, sweet & smoky, more coffee flavors than chocolate
Mouthfeel – Light body, low carbonation, almost watery
Man this went down like water. Light in everything makes this an average beer for me. I thought this would be a bad choice for the hot day but it wasn’t. That being said…I didn’t want another but I did want something else to drink. Fire Rock Pale Ale fit the bill nicely.
