The Thomas Hooker Nor' Easter got lost in the beer grabbag for a bit. Hooker Beer manufactures this mediocre Winter Lager. It is 6%, pours with a mega head, and initially tastes like everyone's favorite of yesterday, Yuengling.
It differs from Yuengling in the following beer departments:
- More alcohol
- From CT, not PA
- Malty and wintery spices, not the subtle caramel Lagery goodness
- not a heavy drinking night kind of beer
I am sitting here and blogging and drinking, and just can't really say much more about this beer.
I guess it is just a solid beer, but not one to remember. If it was cheaper by the case, I think I would reconsider it....but on just the merits of a taste it gets a Drinkable rating and a 81/100.
