The Summer of Cerveza Sundays: Dodgers vs Red Sox

LARIAT LODGE LAZO MEXICAN LAGER: 4

Nice flavors, but too sweet. 

SANTA FE BREWING COMPANY PEPE LOCO: 5

This weekend at work was the busiest event of the year. 

And, to get personal here, for three straight days, I spent several hours each day in close proximity to a woman I once loved very much but was the most toxic relationship of my life. 

In other words, this was not an evening to drink bad beers. So I intentionally pulled this one out of the fridge, as I know I love it.

LONE TREE BREWING MEXICAN LAGER: 5

See above. 

I have been to Colorado many times in the last five years, as you know, and I have frequently drank this beer. It's freaking good. 

FROGTOWN BREWERY SURVEY SAYS: 5

I am not yet halfway through this Summer of Cerveza Sundays, but it's pretty obvious that the best of these beers, on average, are coming out of SoCal. 

I can't say this surprises me.

TRUE VINE BREWING COMPANY SALUD! MEXICAN LAGER: 4

I was enjoying it, but then the rains started and the wind blew over my TV, knocking the beer onto my computer. 

The computer still works, at least, as I am typing these words on it. 

KARBACH BREWING CERVEZA ESPECIAL: 3

Way too sweet. In a blind test, I would guess this was a pilsner, or perhaps a kolsch. Mexican lager would not be in my top 5 guesses. It's made in Houston so maybe those miserable, humid summers cause people to gravitate to sweeter beers. I dunno. Houston sucks.
