Wisconsin Brewing Company

[Trollby]

So new brewery in Wisconsin in Verona (about 15 miles from my place)

I picked up the Sampler pack which contains:

American I.P.A.
Session I.P.A.
Brown & Robust Porter
Amber Lager

[Trollby]

My first one was the Session I.P.A

Was an ok, IPA but very light. Not really an IPA more a Hoppy Session beer.

I don't think I would buy this one again, since cost is same as beers I like more (I think trying to copy Ale Asylum Hopalicious but not as good)

VITAL STATISTICS:

Serving Temp - 55˚ to 57˚ F
Production - Year round
AbV - 4.8%
IBU - 38

If the actual colors are close to the pics you posted, both IPA's look very light.

[Trollby]

Pretty much like the picture, looks like coors light or miller light in color

Second is the American I.P.A.

Much better beer, is more like an IPA.
The hops are there but more bitter than floral so think it needs some aroma and flavor hops to be better.
The smell is more Malty with hop tones not hoppy like I prefer my IPA's
I would buy this one again, but only if cost was not higher than beers I like more


Serving Temp - 46˚ to 54˚ F
Production - Year round
AbV - 7.1%
IBU - 60

Third Taste is the Amber Lager.

This is only OK, seems to have an off grain taste on this beer.

I know I am not a huge Amber beer fan, but I will drink them.

I would buy this if at a bar before a BMC but would not search it out.

VITAL STATISTICS:

Serving Temp - 40˚ to 50˚ F
Production - Year round
AbV - 5.5%
IBU - N/A (what the hell?)

[Trollby]

Forth Taste (and last option they make) is the Brown & Robust Porter.

This is the best they make in my opinion, I forgot I had this at TGIF the other week.
I thought it went really well with the Jack Daniel's Rib-eye.

Nice bold flavors and very refreshing.
I would defiantly buy this at a bar.

VITAL STATISTICS:

Serving Temp - 55˚ F
Production - Year round
AbV - 5.2%
IBU - N/A (what the hell?)

One out of four isn't bad, I guess. I don't get out to my local bar much but I do like most of what they brew (within the styles I like).
Interesting though to see yet another entry into the session IPA area.
