The Hairy Eyeball Ale

I have no idea even what kind of beer this is, but I have learned that I can always trust Lagunitas to pitch to my wheelhouse. Tastes kind of like a bock, but with a creamier ale finish. It is slightly sweet, but so, so slightly so that I dig it. The bitterness is muted, as almost all of it is needed to balance the heavy gravity of this beer. So easy to drink, even though it's packing big booze. Another hit. And I love the little story on the label! It is supposed to hit -20 tonight if you factor in the wind chill, so I'm counting on this brew to keep me warm. MB
