Wingwalker Winter Brew


Wingwalker is 2 for 2! My buddy bought me this six pack and I am very glad that he did. Wingwalker Winter Brew tastes exactly like a winter brew should- crisp, hoppy and completely refreshing when its total garbage outside. In Chicago it is 10 degrees outside with sheets of ice that are covering a few inches of snow which has already turned greyish brown. Chicago needs this kind of beer. The aftertaste has a hint of citrus and has the slightest smokey yet sweet zing to it that really makes this beer. My only complaint, and this is really reaching for something here, is that the carbonation of this beer is a bit too high.

This is one of the few beers I have opened that met all of my expectations to the letter. Wingwalker Winter Brew is a great beer when you finally succumb to winter. I wish I had a fireplace to warm up to while drinking this beer, maybe lay out on a bear rug and gulp away on this stuff. Recommended!

A fireplace and a bear rug would kick monumental ass. Dunno about the beer, I can't even remember the last time I drank alcohol. You should come up and visit and try the Granville Island brewery, seems like people really love their brews.
