Weihenstephaner Hefe-Weissbier (Germany)
Another wheat beer that I'm no longer afraid of. Although this one did have the strange taste, a bit like cold beans, but it doesn't bother me at all any more. A beer from the world's oldest brewery, apparently, it's a little bit smokey and starts to taste a bit funky when it gets a bit warmer. So drink it fast.
Rogue Mocha Porter (USA)
If I based by blog on the notes my friends made about this beer, I'd be here writing about Stalinism and the Soviet Union. Of course, their opinions were based solely on the appearance of the bottle. Unfortunately, I drank this immediately after the excellent Founders Breakfast Stout which was rather bitter at 60IBU. That meant I couldn't taste this milder beer as much as I would have liked. The coffee taste doesn't hit you at once, but half a minute later you'd think you'd been drinking espresso. It was a very good beer, and I would give it another chance with a clean palate... if only it wasn't so expensive here in Finland.
