Really nice Beer. Clipper City Brewing's "Loose Cannon".

Today, well let's just say it's time for beer call.

I stopped by the store on my way home and picked up a six pack from a micro-brewery in Baltimore, Maryland called Heavy Seas, Loose Cannon by the Clipper City Brewing Company.

Lately I have been on an India Pale Ale (IPA) kick and have been trying some new ones when I find them. The Goose Island Pale Ale is pretty good, and the Sam Adams Imperial Pilsner is excellent but it never hurts to try new things. Usually.

I will be honest, I actually bought it the first time because of the artwork. A crusty ole pirate on deck with cannons blazing.



However, that wouldn't have got it back in the fridge a second time though had it sucked. I would have fed it to company.

This however, has moved right to the top of my favorite list. And I might be in bad trouble, I bought the last six pack that the store had here. Illinois is a long haul for beer, but our Hy-Vee carries a pretty nice selection. I'm praying for a new delivery soon.

If you're a hop guy looking for a nice over the top IPA, I have to give this one two barrels up! If you're near Baltimore, even a better reason for a Sunday trip. Lucky East Coasters!
