Beer of the Week

The beer: Night Putting Pale Ale

Brewed by: Flying Dog Brewery, Frederick, Maryland

Description (from the website): "This is THE GOLF BEER. Light and easy to drink, Night Putting's 16oz can is the perfect companion for the course. Brewed in celebration of the 40th anniversary of Caddyshack, the greatest golf movie ever. A subtle malt profile paired with a balanced blend of bitter hops and sweet oats make this new-and-improved pale ale a versatile and easy-to-drink option for afternoons on or off the course."

Would I buy it again?: Naturally, when I heard that Flying Dog had made a golf-themed beer, I knew that I had to review it here. And it's exactly what it says it is: an easily drinkable pale ale. It's the sort of beer one could enjoy while out hacking around the golf course on your cart. I might buy it again because I am a golfer and I feel like I should, but it's a pretty standard pale ale, there's probably hundreds of beers out there just like it.
