Finally it has returned: The Sierra Nevada Blind Tiger Extravaganza! One of The Beer Friends favorte breweries has come back to take over almost all of the Blind Tigers taps.

How could one man attempt to tackle so many fine offerings…by himself? The choices were tough, but they were made. Here’s the best attempt by one man at recapping a truly epic event.
Numero One – Southern Hemisphere Harvest Ale 6.7%. – One of the rumors surrounding this event was that this will be one of the places that Sierra will unveil this years Harvest Ale. A fall brew from start to finish, this pour offers up hearty malts, seasonal spices reminiscent of October and a big hop character.
