I found out yesterday that my face -- okay, an interpretation of my face -- is currently adorning the "new beer window" at
Tired Hands Brewing
in Ardmore, PA. Jean Broillet IV, the owner/brewer, inspired
by...something, named his latest beer, a
session IPA (Jean makes a lot
of hoppy beers (really wonderfully aromatically hoppy beers), a lot of
session beers, and a lot of funky beers),
Be Nice. It clocks in
at
4.2%, and he describes it as a reddish session IPA. When someone --
rightly -- asked if that wasn't the same thing as a pale ale, he
responded that it drinks like a DIPA, and he didn't think anyone would
guess that it was as low in ABV as it is.
I guess I'm going to have to make the trip out to Ardmore and try this
one. I mean, I don't see any way I can not have one (or four) of
these, right?!
Thanks, Jean, pretty cool!
