Beer Review: Dirty Bastard
Monday, March 24th, 2008 by Fuzz
It had been 40 days since I had enjoyed a beer. So, yesterday I made it my tertiary mission (behind getting engaged and celebrating Easter) to try a delicious microbrew. While driving around taking photos, we stopped at Acorn Beverage in Whitewater, WI. They claimed to have over 100 micro brews on their sign out front. I only counted 77 (I keed, I keed), but they seemed to have a great variety of beers that I had never heard of.
I settled on Founders Brewing’s Dirty Bastard. It’s a Scotch Ale and it’s friggin’ dark and delicious. My mom’s husband, Forrest, said, “damn, that’s strong.” And he was correct. For not having a sip of alcohol in 40 days, this was definitely a kick in my low-tolerance-having ass. Delicious!
(Note to BD and TomInGR: Dirty Bastard is brewed in Grand Rapids)
I drank three and took a nap. 
Man, I’m a friggin’ lightweight.

The last time that I was in Breckenridge, CO, I purchased a sampler pack of Breckenridge Brewery’s different kinds of beer. I was pretty surprised, today, when I walked into John’s Liquor in West Bend and found a bunch of different kinds of Breck. There were some that I had tried already, but then I saw “Vanilla Porter,” and I had to try it.
