The Next three and the magical 300!

The next three beers to make this list were all very enjoyable.




#299 SmuttyNose Robust Porter , New Hampshire: This is a lovely dark brown beer with a smooth smokey taste that I really enjoy. The cold weather really compliments this style of beer.








#300 Gulder Draak Ale : Belgium - This beer comes in a very small white bottle with a Golden Dragon on it and serves as a nice warning. Any beer from Belgium in a bottle this small is meant to be sipped and usually has a high alcohol content. this one tipped the scales at 10.5%. Just a quick word of advice, take your time. This is not a tailgate chugging, sunday football watching, crushing the can on the head kinda beer. Plus the bottle would break your skull. This dark amber beer and very aromatic and flavorful and would probably be really good paired with a nice steak.








#301 Moylans Kilt Lifter Scotch Ale, California - As a man who has worn a kilt on more than one occasion I was curious about this beer. This is also a strong beer with an above average alcohol content at 8%. It is very malty and quite enjoyable but I can see if you drink too many how you could be running around lifting your kilt.








I am over the hump now and only have 64 beers to go. This should make for an interesting holiday season as I try to keep on track and avoid a big weekend at teh end of the year.








Cheers and more beers
