Beer Reviews

Hello blog readers – Today we are going to mix it up a bit. The past two posts have been on Indian Pale Ales, which are more darker beers. This review is going to be on a much lighter beer, known as Coors Light. I have had Coors Light on many occasions so I figured I might as well write a review for others to hear me out. Coors Light has a nice refreshing taste upon first sip that last throughout the beer. One of the cool things about drinking Coors Light is the mountains on the can. The mountains, which get their inspiration from the Rocky Mountains in Colorado, are cold sensed. When the beer is cold, the mountains are blue. When the beer is warm, the mountains return to their silver color. To me, it is nice to know if my beer is still cold or not. Alright, now let’s get into the nutrition part of this post. Compared to the IPAs I have reviewed; Coors Light falls in the healthier zone. For every twelve ounces, Coors Light has 102 calories, five grams of carbs, and less t...

Welcome back blog readers! Today I am doing another beer review, but this time the beer is Creature Comforts Tropicalia. Creature Comforts brewery is located in Athens, Georgia, so it is not necessarily a local brew. The Tropicalia is an American IPA (Indian Pale Ale). It has a fruity and citrus-y hop aroma that really adds to the flavoring. Upon the first sip, I was able to immediately taste the fruit and citrus flavor, which was quite appealing. If you are a hoppy beer lover, this IPA should fit right into your portfolio. I know it sure fit into mine. It is also not a bitter beer, which sometimes comes with Indian Pale Ales, which was a plus. Alright, now let’s look at the health and nutrition side to the Tropicalia. For a twelve ounce can of Tropicalia, you would be ingesting 195 calories and 16 grams of carbs. It is a little high on the calorie side of things, but the 16 grams of carbs seem to fit in the typical Indian Pale Ale range. The ABV (alcohol by volume) for the T...

Hello All – Today I am writing my review about Sweet Water 420. The beer was quite soothing upon first sip, and It was not as “hoppy” as I was thinking it would be. It is definitely a more darker beer than most typical brews. Although I like the flavor, after the first couple of sips I began to get a hint of a bitter taste. I believe this bitter taste is expected when drinking an EPA (Extra Pale Ale) beverage. Alright, now on to my views on nutrition of Sweet Water 420. When looking at the nutrition label, 420 has 185 calories per 1 bottle serving, 15 grams of carbs per 1 bottle serving and 13 grams of sugar per 1 bottle serving. The abv (alcohol by volume) for 420 is 5.3 percent. The cost of purchasing Sweet Water 420 is on the more expensive side. A 6-pack cost between $8.99 – $12.99 depending on where you purchase. A 12-pack would cost you between $14.99 - $21.99 depending on where you buy. I have experienced the cheapest price to buy Sweet Water 420 is at Kroger. The ...
