Paul's report
Paul just got back from a trip out west and not only did he bring me a 6 pack of Red Lodge Ales he also "blew up my inbox" with a couple pictures.
The Glacier ale is a fine, sturdy, pale brown beer with stiff hop bitterness and the dry crispness of a small addition of dark malts. The Bent Nail IPA was very similar in color to the Glacier ale but with a good bit more body and sweetness and the hops to match. Both were quite good. Thanks Paul.
I'm off to the Smokies for a couple days. I plan to hit the new Cherokee "trophy" water and hopefully stick a few 22" stockers. I'm also hiking into the mountains after some brookies with Richard Daniel Hanks III. Should be pretty good times.
