Goose Island Sofie

American craft beer on sale. It doesn’t happen that often for any of us but, when it does, it is something to behold. The amount of American craft beer that has flown off the shelves in the local liquor chain this past month has been something to behold. Supposedly they have sold so much Stone that they have dried up the supply at the distributor. Good or bad problem?

I of course, have taken my turn at the beer isles, contemplating what I should and shouldn’t buy. I sided on buying everything and anything I have really wanted lately but didn’t buy. I landed a few bottles that were $3.00 off on their own. Yes, it was basically purchases of pricier beers.

Not that Sofie by Goose Island Beer Company is expensive or hard to get, I haven’t had it in a while and for $6.99 for a bomber, how could I go wrong. Subtle scents and flavors of tart, sweet, spice, and juicy fruits, make Sofie quite the refreshing drinker. I might have to get a few more before the end of April. Enjoy!
