2015 MEMORABLE BEER LIST---by ALVIN

年度最有印象啤酒记继续，这次是吉隆坡朋友ALVIN的清单，4年前在本地开了专卖吧，让一路来只有大厂啤酒的本地饮客多了选择。

well--if you have met Alvin before you shall get an idea why he picked this profile pic :)

The list continues with Alvin from KL--started a craft beer bar 4 years ago with his cousins and still working on to get more people to drink better beers locally(where majority drinkers are still very much commercial lagers crowd.....)
here's the list written by Alvin:-

Renaissance  - Enlightenment Series Sencha Saison

I love beer with tea infused into it. My first tea infused beer was the Yeastie Boys Gunnamatta Ear Grey IPA. This year Renaissance of New Zealand brewed this Sencha Saison as part of their Enlightenment series  and it was awesome. One of those easy to drink beers and it doesn’t need to be overpowering in flavours and aroma. Everything was just right!

来自纽西兰酿坊的农场风格啤酒，用了日本茶叶调和，让原本就温顺的啤酒口味更突出，是易喝一款。

Maui Brewing – Mana Wheat Beer

A wheat beer which I do not mind drinking all night long! Traditional wheat beers are typically brewed with orange peel but this Hawaiian brewery uses pinapple juice and it give it a very refreshing aftertaste.

夏威夷酿坊的麦味啤酒，不同的是用了黄梨中和，喝起来清新爽口。

Southern Bay Brew Co – Vanilla Oatmeal Stout

This is one delicious beer. They brewed a one-off stout and cramped vanilla and oatmeal into. Which turned out to be a perfect combination of ingredients.

澳洲酿坊，加了大量香草和燕麦的可口黑啤。

2 Brothers – Hazella Imperial American Brown Ale

Brown ales might not be the most sort after style of beer but this was different! Won 2^nd at the GABS, Melbourne and the brewer was kind enough the hand us a bottle or TWO! Roast Hazelnuts and Ella hops from Tasmania. I can never say no to Hazelnuts in Brown ales.

这是在澳洲啤酒节得亚军的啤酒，加了烤坚果和澳洲啤酒花的褐色啤酒，是ALVIN不能抗拒的美味。

Mikkeller 1000IBU

The name says it all! A beer with 1000ibu and it really tastes like 1000ibu. A small sip of 100ml will leave a lingering hoppy after taste which lasts for about 5 minutes! But as soon as the hoppy-ness leaves ends, you’d want to take another sip. Not for the faint hoppy hearted drinker

啤酒名称已见端倪，这是印度淡啤类别中苦味之作，一小口就让味蕾充满啤酒花“攻击”，“受不了苦”的饮客肯定需要时间适应。
