Uncommon Brewers @ Canfest ‘09
In this piece Mike Myword and Msiter Fnygy review the Siamese Twin Ale from Uncommon Brewers
It is a traditional Belgian-style Double seasoned with coriander and entirely uncommon Thai spices. At first surprising, the floral notes of lemongrass and sharper bite of kaffir lime blend with the deep malt of this double to produce a dangerously drinkable beer.
Not sure Mister Fnygy liked it, but in all seriousness it was pretty good! Not sure I’d drink it along side anything. I like beers like that on their own. But it does come in a tall can.

His reasoning was that it makes it easy to gage the mass of a can of beer. Though this is pure folly. If the cans contained 16 fl Ounces of deionized water then the can/contents combination would clearly weigh more than a pound. Ad in the rest of the cans and the plastic thing that ties the together and the box, and your shipping weight is nigh on incalculable. Not to mention the fact that alcohol weighs less than water and beer with lemon grass, keffir lime and coriander weighs significantly MORE than water.
Pound for pound though, Siamese Twin Ale is significantly more refreshing than Water…
