New Brew "Thursday": 'Here's To Feeling Good All The Time' from Bissell Brothers

A few years ago while waiting in line at Trillium when I first heard of this brewery. As someone who went to college in Maine and drank his fair share of beer (not always craft but we were all young once) I was upset at myself for not knowing about this brewery and vowed that my next trip up I would stop by and check them out. They did not disappoint, but that is a story for another time. Today is about 'Here's To Feeling Good All The Time' an action, and beer, that is just awesome.

This Double IPA clocks in at around 7.8% ABV and yet still has an amazing lightness to it. Light in appearance, light smelling, light mouthfeel, and light with a slightly lingering bitter finish. The oddest, and yet most amazing, is this beer's taste as it is anything but light. The complexities of the galaxy, mosaic, and simcoe hops all work in perfect harmony together while this is a galaxy beer in both appearance and taste the three hops work magnificently well together giving the beer a very piney taste. 

While I typically do not write about an IPA's malt profile here I feel it would be a disservice. 'Here's To Feeling Good All The Time' has a very distinct oat taste that is solely due to the malt. I typically hate IPAs were the malt is this present but this beer's galaxy forward hop blend make this an awesome beer to the last sip. 

I have to be honest, I did not get the Seinfeld reference because I did not remember the episode but after seeing a clip 'Here's To Feeling Good All The Time' is a perfect representation of it.
