257/905)  Home:  Siamese Twin Ale by Uncommon Brewers of California, U.S.A.:  **; 8.5%;  brewed with "Belgian techniques and Asian spices";  the tin also reads, "Uncommon beer for uncommon people";  brewed with Kaffir lime leaves, lemongrass & coriander;  sweet malty nose;  it looks like pale coca cola;  the coriander is especially strong in the nose - it's  strong to the palate also, largely overshadowing the lemongrass;   it is also herby and rooty with licorice notes;  it's an odd one to be sure;

I really do want to experience this one again to try to figure it out.  I suspect it would be good to cook with.  For those who break up multi-packs at the LCBO (not me) you will need to carry tin-snips.  Aging is recommended - I will test this.

Today is Tim McCarver's birthday, for baseball fans.
