Cisco Brewers

Had a chance to meet and spend some time with Silas, the head brewer, and his family today. What an absolutely awesome guy. He and his wife and daughter made our day with our three kids so wonderful. On top of having an A+ fam, Silas also really knows his beer. The Millet Time gluten free pale ale is so good you'd never know it wasn't a "regular" beer. Great malt backbone and still a tight, clean finish. The Spotted Turtle dunkel is also one of the very best dunkels I've ever had from an American brewery. It's on par with Von Trapp, who I think does it as well as anyone in the world. It's a REAL dunkel, a dark lager that's still great even on a hot sunny day, instead of the overly sweet, almost stout like "dunkels" a lot of breweries do. It's one thing to visit a brewery and have a good time, and it's another to meet people that really transform your day from a good one to a great one. I can't say enough about what a wonderful time we had, and it's all thanks to Silas and the rest of the crew at Cisco.
