CBC and OffShore

Enjoyed a few good beers this evening one by reccomendation from the guys at yarmouth wine and spirits. place is great btw they have an awesome wall of craft brews in pints.

First up was Cambridge Brew Company- The Audacity of Hops
Belgian style double IPA
Fruity aroma, looks like a belgian, smells like a belgain, with a tart hoppy flavor through most of the sip. pretty good but the marraige of the two styles didnt sit with me all that well. probably good paired with the right food but the salty food we had wasnt the ticket. I dunno double IPA's are a personal preference, my brother really liked it.

Next was the Offshore Ale's- Menemsha Creek Pale Ale
Everything you'd expect from a pale ale, awesome balance of hoppiness not too overpowering with a slick crisp finish. Clear winner in my eyes but a very different beer from the one above.

Anyone have any experience?
