I mentioned last year that I made a stop in Oceanside at Bagby Beer Co. but I failed to mention that I brought a few of their beers back with me and it is now time to talk about them further. And for the last time! See today’s other Babgby blog post.
Starting with the cheekily named Corn Star an American Lager brewed with corn at a big 7.8% abv. Originally a collaboration with Sun King Brewing in Indiana. Pours a vividly clear darker yellow. Crisp and sweet aroma. First sip is very sweet on the palate. The corn taste is there for sure. Silky mouthfeel to it. Tastes pretty hefty too.
wEYEssbier was a gem that stood out in my taster tray so I bought a can of the hefeweizen to have again. There was a slight spice note but this was a banana dream. Almost into cream pie territory with a mouthfeel mix of bubbly and silky together. Better version of a pastry beer to me.
