REVIEW: Oskar Blues G'Knight


Well it's Friday, and that brings us to the end of this little week of Oskar Blues I've cooked up here. Don't worry, there will certainly be more. Mama's Little Yella Pils and Old Chub were both hits, hopefully today's makes it a clean sweep. The beer today is G'Knight an Imperial red ale. I'm thinking this beer will be very similar in style to the Hop Head Red from Green Flash that I looked at a while ago. Apropos of nothing, I've been talking about Oskar Blues' beers all week and I just now noticed the ColoRADo at the bottom of the can. Love that. There's also a very cool story behind this beer. It's named after Gordon Knight, a brewer and Vietnam veteran, and firefighter who passed away when his helicopter went down while fighting a forest fire. More info on Gordon's story can be found here. Very cool stuff, but I have a brew to talk about. To the beer!
