My reprieve from hops was fleeting. Beer #10 in the beer advent calendar is yet another IPA. Double dry hopped at that, so yay. It's a hazy IPA, so that means it at least has a little more sweetness to it to offset some of the hoppiness. But it's still way too hoppy for my tastes. Saint Errant is a local small-batch nanobrewery that actually uses Temperance in Evanston to brew and can their beers. I've only had a couple of their beers, and from their website, it looks like most of their beers are IPAs. I can highly recommend Gorilla Cookies, which is a Russian imperial stout that they recently put out. I wish that had been in slot number ten instead of this DDHIPA, but such is life when you're a malty guy living in a hoppy world.
