After the long, windy weeks of March, which included a great
trip to Phoenix for some spring training baseball and a short notice trip to
San Antonio to root on Nebrasketball, I finally have some time to write on my
blog. This week I will be reviewing a great brew that I had while I was in
Phoenix. The second day we were there we hit up a local brewery/restaurant
called Four Peaks Brewing Company. I had the joy of trying a few of their
beers, which I will review over the next few weeks. This week I'm starting off
with Sunbru Kolsch Style Ale.
After the first sip of Sunbru, I knew this was going to be a
beer that I liked. With the temperature being in the mid 80s, I wanted something
that could quench my thirst. The waitress told me that no beer would do a
better job, and she was correct! This beer goes down so smoothly with its
medium body and slightly hoppy flavor, made this brew one of the most
refreshing beers I have had.
Klosch Style Ales come from Cologne, West Germany. The beers
from this region are known for low bitterness and light body, which is a great
style of ale. If you are not a big fan of hoppy beers, this is a good one for
you. The bad news is that this beer is not available in our state. Four Peaks
Brewing Company has many World Beer Cup winners, making this brewery a must
visit the next time you are in Arizona. The amazing beers and great food make
this one of the better restaurant/breweries that I have been to. Until next
time, happy drinking!
