a pair of bears

I always tends towards the darker beers, but an amber ale can be tasty and refreshing.  Boont has an eye-catching bottle, with that pond and moose, and a bear on the neck that seems like he should be right at home in Madrid.  It also has an interesting bottle cap.


Here comes the osa, with wine and cheese

If that doesn't say "California" to you...



Boont has a warm caramel color and fluffy head, but not much smell.  The first taste is a little bitter but immediately after it becomes sweeter, caramelly.  The head will dissipate after some minutes, but there's always a little foam on top.  After warming up for a few minutes, the ale really doesn't develop any stronger smell, and the taste stays ale-y and bittersweet.  Not bad to relax with in the late afternoon.
