Last night after a great hike up north of town, my party decided to stop down to the school house for some semi deserved (it was only a 4 mile hike) beer. For those of you who don't know (this group includes me) the Schoolhouse (AKA Olde Schoolhouse Cafe?) is a an awesome locals stopping point across from the epic Purgatory ski resort. In season its a post skiing it spot.
Anyways, on tap yesterday they had three options:
Ska Pinstripe
Mexican Logger
Blue Moon
Out of these three options, which would you pick? There are a lot of factors that could go into your choice making, price... i'm pretty sure the Blue Moon was a full dollar cheaper than the other two, but... is it worth it? You can support local brewers, have a solid beer, or you can have a blue moon. They might even put fruit in it if you ask nicely :).
As far as my ratings go
Ska Pinstrip- solid 4/5
Mexican Logger- 4/5, seasonally- this is not a winter beer. Also, i think at least one of those points is just bc its served everywhere over there (demoted 3/5- its beer, but its not bad)
Blue Moon- 1/5.
I do not particularly like this beer. I think its one of the beers i would frequently order at 21 when i wasn't sure what the difference between the on draft options was. If its your thing- a wheat, lightly citrusy, wide distribution, ok, i can dig that, but no. I will not be ordering this beer unless the only other option is bud lite.
Anyways- Go outside. Do something fun. Drink a beer. In whichever order you chose.
