Beer 101: Lagers, ales, lambics dominate Natty Ice

Abstract:
Here's to the official beer review of The Triangle! Each week I'll be ranking different beers from my own personal scale: The Suds-o-Meter. Rankings will take into account looks, tastes, smells, inebriation levels, and all that other stuff that makes beer so good (or so bad)....

I had no idea that color had no relation to the amount of filling a beer is. I always have associated dark beers as heavy, and not very drinkable. We have a local brewery here that is proud of some of it's darker "light" beers, and I have always turned the other cheek. Maybe I need to reconsider.

Thanks

Josh-

I highly suggest you give every beer an equal shot! Just from reviewing all the different beers I've done so far, I've realized that each brew is unique in its own way. Although you can get a basic concept of what a beer is going to be like by the style its classified under, it's still impossible to tell exactly what it'll be like until you drink it. I just recently had a dark black brew, but it ended up being pretty thin in terms of the mouth feel. With that in mind, it only gives you more reason to keep trying new beers.

Cheers,
Evan

At Drexel and in Philly you are surrounded by great beer and great beer writers - lots of knowledge etc.
Dr. Lynn hoffman should be on staff there and would be a good resource.
Keep up the beer stuff-
