Beer Review: Hockley Valley Black & Tan



As the ride pictures and posts are slowing down a bit, why not add some more beer reviews!!! This gives me the opportunity to drink more beer and think of analogies to review them.... Also people should be going out and trying different local beers as well....

First Impressions: At the end of a good bike ride, Mike handed me the beer which was fantastic!! First because mike is awesome, and secondly the beer was cold and will become very thirst quenching!!

I never poured the beer into a glass so I'm going to assume that the beer colour is Black with a hint of Tan... or Tan that is black.... either way it was tastey!

The first sip was more of a gulp than a sip... as I was still thirsty after the ride..... but it was very very smooth...  no hint of hops but more of a malty flavour.... i'm not really sure what I would compare this beer to... 

The scores and ratings below will be bias as always, more because of my thirst level at the time of drinking the beer!!

Would I buy a case of this beer: Yes I would... a great after ride beer for spring rides..
Did it taste good: Yes! I still am trying to find a beer that doesn't taste good...
What was your initial thought when you drank the beer: Mike is awesome.... because he gave me a beer..
Was the beer Hoppy: No hops, more malty sort of roasted flavour.... 

Score: 4.6 out of 5
