I had Red Tail Ale from Mendocino a few weeks ago, had a few left over so I tried one again. I really don't like it. What's all the rave about? Did I get a bad batch?
Not my favorite beer but it holds a special place in my heart because it is one of about 4 or so craft beers that you could find in stores when the market was 99% dominated by BMC.
It was my gateway beer. I used to be able to get a 12pack for 9.99 in Santa Barbara in 2002. It was better than any other beer I had had before. Then I moved to San Diego.
