Some New Favorites

In preparation for trivia night tonight, a few of us decided to pregame it at Galaxy Hut. I found the selections of craft brews to be plentiful and delicious. The inset picture shows their draft menu.

As soon as I saw it, I knew that I wanted to try the Heavy Seas Plank One Old Ale. Fantastic! I took my time drinking that one down but once I was finished...round 2. This time I went for the Sierra Nevada Olvia, having heard a favorable review from club mate John. It certainly was tasty. And I would try it again. However, I think I preferred the Plank One.

Soon after finishing my second pint, we walked to RiRa where the trivia was being held. On an earlier visit I had noticed a beer on tap from Palm. I decided that on my next visit I would try it. I did get the Palm this time. It was their Belgian Amber Ale. I can't say I enjoyed it that much. Maybe I was expecting more of the flavors I had tasted earlier but this one just didn't do it for me.

So in the end, I've added 2 drafts to my favorites list, and I found out that I'll go back to Guinness on my next visit to RiRa.
