Toppling Goliath

Toppling Goliath Brewing Company

Fire Skulls & Money

A color resembling five alive. 0range-beige wet plaster-textured head with falling leaves lacing. Evocative nose of tropical pineapple, lime, tangerine, pink grapefruit, mango, papaya. Creamy mouthfeel with razz-y bite-y parts. Earthy orange-chocolate, ginger root, savory, sarsparilla, nutmeg, tarragon. A feast of cornucopic proportion. Malty and strong. This one really toasts the bony quantum nave. Dare I say ‘it’s money!’

Pompeii India Pale Ale

Cloudy and agitated, this teems with roiling bubbles and sediments pushing a tooth white cap to thick mountainous lava lines of lacing. Grapefruit skin, orange peel, lemon rind and clementine sections greet the memory sensor. Pink grapefruit pith, lemongrass, daisy petals and green strawberries with a whiff of caper. White grapefruit pulp, lemon-lime, mineral salt, oregano, grapefruit pith, lime oil, and iron-chalk tastes create a real depth, while keeping it surprisingly clean and light. Imagine soursop that has been dried and rehydrated by lemon, then canned, dried again, powdered and rehydrated with mineral water. Now add just the perfect malt to balance it. Two clicks above mortal, one short of divine. .

Terrific but not for the faint of heart. A goliath of a wine. Black cherries, plums, smoked meat, caramelized onions. — 8 years ago

Abreu Vineyards

Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2006

1.5 hour decant(lots of fine sediment). A monumental dark crimson purplish color with little signs of aging. On the nose: beautiful notes of blackberry, stewed meat, dark plum, spice, forest floor, and sandalwood. Taste: creamy, smooth, rich, and such a polished wine with dark fruit, smoke, earth, graphite, tar and a long spiced mineral finish. This Goliath is drinking well at year 15 with the decant, but no hurry, it's ready to go a number of more years. What a treat this Saturday night! — 5 years ago

King Sue Double India Pale Ale

My wife is the beer nerd in our house, and I don’t approach beer like I do wine. I know that some traditionalist hate on this super trendy, hazy, OJ-looking style, but I like it when done well, and this is the best one I’ve ever had. Juicy, creamy, and delicious. This producer’s stuff is on point. — 6 years ago

Pseudo Sue Galaxy Dry Hopped Pale Ale

Thought I already rated this one, but...drinking. A hazy lil number with a fluffy quilt on top sewn from grapefruit pith. Bright, fresh, tangerine and grapefruit nose, with candied grapefruit peel, lime kefir, and zippy lime zest. Smells like summer! Citrus tangy on the palate as well, with ruby grapefruit deconstruction separating peel from pulp and pith, and cosmic zest shimmering like stardust. Quince, lime slices, lemon with a touch of sugar, dried orange, dried mango, white pepper and edible flower or snap pea, green banana turn to clean fruit married to a bitter finish. Really great beer, with acids calling out salivary catalysts, for a mouth coating, lip smacking interplay. This has such an elegant balance, it seems like something squeezed straight out of the jungle. .

The Giant 47 Pound Rooster Cabernet Sauvignon

Perfect with my steak & shrimp dinner! Not sweet at all (which is normally what I look for in wine).. I’m sure I’d be told to serve warm but wine for me must be cold. I’ll buy again for compliments to my meals. Could even see sipping it for a nightcap on cool nights. — 7 years ago

Red Moscato

This is a great red for those who want to have more red wine in their life without starting on a bold red. I find it to be a good happy medium when I want a glass of red wine but also have a sweet tooth. Not as full bodied as most reds, light on the palate. Definitely would recommend for those trying to come to the dark side of wine :) — 9 years ago
