Need a last minute go-to this evening? How about a great, easy-to-drink beer to get you through a full day of football or Red Sox/Yankees tomorrow? Than may I suggest Black Dog Ale from Spanish Peaks Brewing Co.
This English style amber ale has a rich, deep amber color–perfect for autumn–with a pleasant, but not overpowering hop aroma. Black Dog Ale has intriguing layers of malt character, which gives it a complex yet well balanced feel and maintains a high level of interest while remaining very highly drinkable (a must for a full day of football and undoubted nagging from the Mrs.).
