Toppling Goliath Brewing Company

The nice thing to be true of beer fans, they are more generous than others. We enjoy sharing something that brings us joy. We ensure good times. We share any depth of knowledge of this crafty habit. My boss and I traded beers. He gave me four different Toppling Goliath BREWS. I’ve never experienced and of these Iowa beers and he wanted to share his favorite brewery with me from his home area.

Of course, he gave them to me on a night where I only have eight hours between shifts. I worked until 10:00pm on Thursday night and was at work at 6:30am on Friday (today) morning.

I made it work and I also made myself some food, trying some SOL cuisine ‘burgers’.

  • Dorothy’s New World Lager:

Poured well with good head appearing light, but definitely has more of an amber color. This lager is almost sweet. Maybe it’s honey, maybe it’s meybeline?

  • Psuedo Sue

 

HOLY SHIT THAT IS GOOD. Hoppy aroma and taste with citrusness.

 

I sliced a portabella mushroom and onions and pan-fry.

 

ADD BBQ SAUCE

That is extra citrusy amazingly hoppy.

 

Well DONE.

I am not going to pretend that I can taste and sense every hint of flavor. I know good beer and these were good. I tried live-reviewing these beers and that did not work.

I made SOLFOOD. Involved, was Buns, Famous Dave’s Chipotle Sauce, Alfalfa Sprouts, Spinach, Portabella, Onion, SOL & GoVeggie (V) ‘cheese’.
