You know how it is: You see a girl, shes cute and seems friendly enough, so you decide to talk to her. Then, about three minutes after she opens her mouth, you find out cute and blandly friendly is about all she has going for her.
Shes the kind of girl who had the cute bob haircut all the girls have and her jeans arent so low shes sprouting a disgusting muffin top. But then you find out all she can say is that things are nice.
The conversation, after introductions, was something like:
Baby-Boy: What do you think of this place?
Cute Girl: Its nice.
Baby-Boy: What do you do for a living?
Cute Girl: I am getting ready to graduate from college.
Cute Girls Friend (who is trying to be helpful and get her some action): Cute Girl just got back from studying abroad in Bolivia. She taught English to children.
Baby-Boy: Really, you studied abroad in Bolivia and taught English to children? What was that like?
Cute Girl: Yeah, it was nice.
That is what drinking this beer was like.
It was good looking enough to approach with a nice, dark amber color. It had that nice hoppy floral smell some beers (and girls) have.
But the problem came after I opened my mouth. The beer was, well, just kind of bland. It wasnt offensively bad, but for a beer that is supposed to be brewed with maple sugar, there wasnt much flavor to it. There was some hops in the flavor, but not enough to call it hoppy.
It was like a light beer in all the bad ways.
So instead of the Ale Girl, you might be better off talking to her stout friend with the personalityand the Beer Dorks thongon display.
