This refreshing, unassuming Ale sporting a light dissipating head, drew my attention. The Nose was clean, nothing jumping into my nostrils for a whiff, smelled almost like a light beer. As I began to partake though, I began noticing a light citrus undertow that pulled me back for more. I almost noticed light whispers of hop flavor, but without any bittering. This beer is great for warm weather, I would probably choose this with a summer crab boil. Cover the picnic table with newspapers set the boiling pot dead center and start cracking because a cold Tire Bite will go along with the party.
Matt gives this a howling 4 out of 5.
What the Fahrvergnügen? Is Matt starting to like fruity beers? Come to the dark side Matt. We have cookies.
Anyway, I digress. It is not really a fruity beer, there are simply some hints of citrus that I attribute to masterful use of hops and yeast. There is a well balanced malts and hops essence to the nose, the mouth feel is clean and medium bodied. A thoroughly enjoyable brew that delivers golden rays of sunshine directly to your tastebuds while little refreshment ninjas surf into your mouth on gentle waves of hoppy malted barley goodness.

Dog Bite High Gravity Lager
This Lager's initial visual presentation is not overly impressive. The simple orange can with a silhouetted Cerberus give no indication of the smooth 10% abv joy that is waiting inside. Reminiscent of some of the finer Belgian refermented barley wines such as Golden Drach, this american made lager, though not amazing, is slightly sweet and easy to drink. Because of its low cost (I paid $1.89) you might be slightly impressed. 3 out of 5 stars. -Zech
My first impression was, "not another alcohol based energy drink", but I was pleasantly surprised by the flavors that came from the can. It has an almost sweet start to it, and finishes a little bitter, but definitely worth a glass or two. I would suggest drinking it very cold, as it warms the bitterness increases. Will drink it again and I recommend giving it a shot yourself. I also give it 2.5 of 5 stars. -Matt
