cask night

made it to cask night at the railway club on tuesday
it was a dry-hopped with tomahawk pale ale by russell brewing


i honestly have no idea how i feel about this cask
definitely drinkable
some haze, nice head, amazing nose
tastes like a pale ale that has been dry-hopped
you know, hoppy and malty
but there's just something about it that i can't make up my mind about
do i love it? do i hate it?  am i indifferent to it?
i have no idea
how's that for a review?
that's what i'm here for folks - clarity and articulation
yup, umm hmm

but all was not lost
i kept drinking
i thought that was the best way to deal with my weird taste buds
had a phillips hop circle at the railway
then lagunitas ipa and acme ipa at malones
followed by central city red racer at rogue
(sounds a bit like the pub crawl for ipa day doesn't it?
but nope, just any old tuesday night in vancouver...)
my palate recalibrated itself and all was right in my world
thank dog!
