Enjoyed the first three days of the calendar- an Italian pale ale, German IPA, and a Finnish dark lager. The IPA was nothing like the crazy hoppy American IPAs we are used to- not nearly as bitter, but very nice. More similar to one of our session pale ales I guess. Day 4 was a sour Gose beer from England - not really my thing, but enjoyed trying it. Would have expected the first English beer to be a bitter, but perhaps the second one will be. I'm a day behind, but day 5 is a Belgian abbey. Cant wait.
Also, just noticed there is only one German beer in the calendar. Kind of odd.
