Sprecher beer: Matt tries six of the best
So I happened upon Cal’s Bar today, as I was running errands with my wife, Janelle, during an ever-so-brief, all-too-real, vacation for both of us.
My wife ordered a vodka-tonic (hold the tonic) and I pondered my beer order. Janelle is a beer drinker, but her first beer ever was Hoegaarden (the Belgian white beer), so there are pretty high standards to be met before she’ll order a beer.
The bartender that day, Kelly, who happens to be one of the nicer bartenders at Cal’s, helped me pick a brew off the beaten path. That brew, Sprecher 16oz. Abbey-Triple, how I have never tasted the malevolent malt of this significance is beyond me.
However, as transcending as the first beer was, I was informed that there were several flavors of this brew. I use the term "malevolent" to describe it, as this beer is 8.3% ABV. Sprecher beer, although German-sounding in name, is actually brewed in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and has very significant flavor.
I quickly asked for a note pad/card and scribbled the first adjectives that came to mind as I tasted each brew. Links to the reviews below:
Sprecher Abbey-Triple
Sprecher Hefe-Weis
Sprecher Piper’s Scotch-style Ale
Sprecher Special Amber Lager
Sprecher Winter Brew
