Thoughts On My First Time Attending CBC...Finally

This is a long overdue piece, but time and life always bring surprises, delays, and all kinds of unexpected curveballs. This being said, I am finally getting time to get caught up and share some of the great happenings over the last few months and the first half of the year.

Beer Review: Rogue Juniper Pale Ale

From Rogue Ales & Spirits comes the Juniper Pale Ale, an
American Pale Ale created with the whole juniper berries as part of the
ingredients. This 5.3% ABV and 34 IBU beer features 11 ingredients in total
which includes 5 malts and 3 Hops. The beer itself was first introduced in 2007

is said to pair well with turkey as well as hot and spicy foods like many pale
ales. Check out my review here to see what my thoughts are on this somewhat interesting
ale.
