Well over the weekend I was up in Madison and checked out a few new beers.

I went through a fair amount of Leinei's Red & Leinei's Honey. I would have to say that Honey was my favorite of the two and definitely is a beer that I'll probably purchase in the future. I also had fair amount of Spotted Cow which I came to really like by the time the weekend was over. The brewery where Spotted Cow is produced also brews a beer called Fat Squirrel but I didn't have a chance to taste it.

I also toured the Capital Brewery in Madison and was able to sample their different beers. My favorite by far is their Capital 1900 which I would describe as very flavorful and a touch bit heavier than Leinei's Honey. I was able to sample the beer that Capital is currently refining as a competitor to Leinei's Honey and some of the other light, popular micro-brews on the market.
