I came up to Pennsylvania to interview at U of Pitt but after seeing the ridiculous prices for the hotels downtown I decided to stay on the outskirts to save some money. Little did I know I would be in the middle of BFE. Thank goodness the Quality Inn isn’t a run down shack and more importantly I ran across TJ’s take and 6-pack. There wasn’t a huge selection at TJ’s, mainly domestics, but I was able to snag a few brews I’ve never tasted.
First on the list is the Chimp Chiller Ale from Butt Monkey. I hesitate to put the brewery name on the site because I can only imagine the comments that will be posted. Nonetheless here goes. It pours a straw-colored-yellow, kinda like urine or any domestic light beer, you take your pick. There are no outstanding aromas, to be honest it just smells like beer. And surprise, surprise it tastes like beer. If I were doing a blind taste test with the CCA and Bud or Miller Lite I would find it hard to differentiate among the them. It tastes every bit like a cheap lager. I mean it’s a nice beer for beer pong or any other drinking game but you’ll be hard pressed to find any special characteristics. Save the CCA for a long drinking session on the beach, for it’s not to be used to impress the palate.
