Name: Mild Winter
From: Goose Island, Illinois, USA
Type: Rye Beer
This is a brew I've enjoyed over the years since moving to Chicago, and always look forward to seeing it come wintertime. Today was Superbowl Sunday, and I have to admit most of my alcohol intake was made up of a gelatin vodka lobster (pictured), but of course I found time for a beer. This is a dark ale, and there's a little sweetness to it, but it's well countered by the spiciness of the rye. The ABV is reasonable, and it's not very hoppy at all, so it goes down really easy. This is a great option when you want something a little heartier but aren't in the mood for a porter or a stout. Drink up.
