Dang that's sweet. Seriously sweet. Almost off-puttingly sweet at first. But, about halfway though I was used to it. Once you get through the agave sweetness it's pretty good. A well-rounded wheat ale.
Yeh... the further I get through this pint, the more I like it. Mhm. That's good.
If I was in a better mood I'm sure I could more throuroughly describe what I like about it, but, oh well.
Good beer. Unique experience. Will try again.

Shock Top, Belgian White
I get where they were trying to go with this beer, but I'm pretty sure they missed. I didn't do any "research" before I took one of these out of the cooler at Kroger. The internet says that it's produced by Anheiser-Busch
I was expecting a light, crisp, citrisy, wheat ale. What I got was a bland, malty, overly carbonated, mediocre beer with a shot of orange drank.
Do not want.

Red Brick, Dog Days Ale
Wow. I love this stuff. I bought a quart growler from 5 Points Growlers on recommendation from one of the staff.
This beer has everything that makes summer brews great. It's a crisp, refreshing, easy drink that doesn't overwhelm you with complex over the top flavors. I'd love to have a tall glass of this on standby for a post-lawn-mow celebration out on the front porch in my rocker. If I host any BBQ's this summer, I'll be serving the Dog Days. In fact, I can just see a golden pint accompanying a plateful of grilled shrimp skewers and corn on the cob.
I feel inspired, man. BBQ at my place before the month's out. Now I have an excuse to get a gallon growler.
Oh yeh... the taste. Simple, but with strong character. Citrus, spice, wheat, hops, carbonation: perfectly balanced. Seriously, it's zen-like.
