I know it sounds like an oxymoron or words coming from a delusional person.
After spending most of my adult life laughing at grown men drinking an assortment of watered down beer going under the “lite” label, I have discovered what may be the best beer I have tasted “anywhere”.
Driving back from Seattle post the Hawks trashing of the 49ers, (gotta love T. Rawls with his 209 rushing yards), I did the customary Canadian thing and stopped for some cheap gas in Bellingham prior to crossing over.
When the kid manning the cash at the station discovered that I was from the north, he suggested that I try a “local” brew from Bellingham Washington. I told him that drinking US lite beer may lead to having my passport revoked or even a deserved beating, he insisted that this was different.
Reluctantly, I purchased a ½ sack of his recommended, Kulshan Winter Ale.
Once home, I poured a glass … WOW … This is a rich dark chocolate roasted barley ale … smooth and delicious.
I may start going back south just for the beer now. Kudos to the Gas station kid with good taste
