I like beer, and I like to try new beers. I’ll tell you about the good and bad ones I find. I am not qualified an any way to talk about beer, but I’m going to anyway.
Deschutes’ Mirror Pond is not a new beer by any means but it is one of my favorites. I’ve sort of forgotten it in my attempt to try every micro brew in the greater Portland area, but I revisited it tonight and it’s like talking with an old friend. It is full-bodied and warm. I once referred to it as a beer that tastes like a bar, maybe because it actually tastes like wood, but this is the beer to drink if you want to feel like you’re having a night out without leaving your couch. Drop some peanut shells on your floor, light a cigarette, and you’ve made your own personal bar.
Drink it in a glass.
