Tin Roof Perfect Tine Amber Ale:
Greetings all, today is the last day of March and you know what that means: Free Beer Friday! Well Saturday really, but who’s counting. Today’s free beer is a local NOLA brew, Tin Roof Beer. The beer was a free one being handed out in plastic cups in my hotel bar and my nose for beer and instinct for cheap drew me in like a fly to…well, you know. Speaking of you-know-what, that’s came to mind with this brew. After sampling it and thinking “this is an okay dark pale ale, but nothing to write home about” I asked what the name of this pale ale was, “It’s not a pale ale sir, it’s an amber ale”. Well pardon me Miss Beer Girl, an AMBER ale. Who would’ve thought. I didn’t see them pour this so I can’t comment of too much from that end but the beer had a slight nose of hops and spice with a thin head. The beer is strong on the sour hops with a nose of pale ale but not very refreshing in my opinion. Well, anyway, this beer was raved about a bunch of people around me but I really didn’t find this one that appealing and makes me glad it was free.
