Was looking forward to trying this one and was a bit disappointed. They use a grain called black patent in this one and I don't care for that one at all. Not bad, just not what I hoped it would be

From personal experience (they have a taproom 5 minutes from my apartment) it's MUCH better on draftWas looking forward to trying this one and was a bit disappointed. They use a grain called black patent in this one and I don't care for that one at all. Not bad, just not what I hoped it would be
Went to hang out at one of my local breweries last night with my fiancé, brother and our friend from North Carolina. Had this flight then a pint of Lethal Cupcake, an imperial chocolate porter.

A few months back, I was watching an episode of Shark Tank in which an entrepreneur had a gadget called Fizzics that let's you 'kegify' a bottle, can, or growler of beer. Pull the handle forward and it dispenses the beer. Near the end of the draw, push the handle back and the thing uses sound waves to create creamy head that they claim improves the taste experience. I was curious about it and even thought of buying one when they showed up at Best Buy a few weeks ago. Well, The Wife® got me one for Christmas. It's the smaller model that, according to the manufacturer, will accommodate a 12 oz bottle and cans up to 25 oz. Since it takes 16 oz cans without complaint, I thought it would take a half liter bottle, so I bought one today to try it out:
Yep, it fits. This wasn't the first time I've used it since Christmas of course and I'm happy to report that it works on this fine beer, too. The head really is creamier than what you get with a regular pour and it does subtly change the character of the beer.
