Beer, I love it and after spending the last couple years following great blogs in the Bay Area I have decided to join the club. I have been passionate about beer for years, worked as an assistant brewer and sales rep for a local brewery. I have had more than my share of glasses and have even traveled to Germany, Ireland, England and of course Belgium to enjoy the local flavors. I hope to discuss new beers coming out, cooking, homebrewing and everything beer. Any feedback is appreciated.

Saison Du BUFF
So for my first blog I guess I will start with a tasting. I should preface this by saying, I have experience drinking and brewing beer, but very little judging. I have a simple rating system would I drink this again.
I was on vacation in Newport Beach Ca, and found this bottle at Mr. Kegs. My eyes lit up immediately, cause I heard about this series of stone collaboration beers. This beer is a collaboration of Stone, Dogfish and Victory brewing. It's a Saison Style, with the addition of parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme. I am not really into "spiced" beer, but I really did enjoy this one. It was more of a hoppy saison, with spicey notes. Very drinkable, I wish I would have grabbed a couple more it would have been great drinking during the hot day.
Overall I would drink it again.
