Rayon Vert

The only hockey news of note today is Tomas Vokoun getting traded to the Pittsburgh Penguins, where he promptly signed a two year deal with the team.  Vokoun will likely serve as a backup to Marc-Andre Fleury and maybe push for a starting job, if only to get Fleury's game going again.

As for how to fill this page, well, you are looking at the Green Flash Rayon Vert.  It is the Belgian Style Pale-Ale entry from the San Diego, CA based brewing company and carries a 7.0% ABV.  It is a sour, so the taste and smell will be a little odd.  For me, the taste just wasn't there for most of the try, but it came on strong at the end as the beer warmed up.  I like consistency when it comes to taste, so in that regard, the beer disappoints.  However, it wasn't helped this time by the amount of head on the beer, as you see in the picture.  If you have the patience to wait out the warming of the beer, then the Rayon Vert will reap some reward for the drinker.
