- Hey guys, it's Cassie,
your local beer enthusiast here,
and it's time to get ready
for some Kansas City Chiefs football,
or at least chief's beers.
(fast paced rock music)
So, I'm gonna kick off, a-ha-ha,
by tasting and reviewing
the Kingdom Blonde Ale
by Golden Road Brewing,
Western Brewing Company's Red Lager,
and Worth The Wait by
Boulevard Brewing Company.
Alright, first up, let's give
that Kingdom Blonde Ale a try.
This is about 4.8% Blonde Ale.
We've got some pretty crystal clear,
pale yellow action going on here.
What I would expect from a Blonde Ale.
And, very crisp.
This beer isn't actually from Kansas City,
but the makers at Golden Road
Brewing are from Kansas City,
so they advertise this beer as
from Kansas City Chiefs fans,
for Kansas City Chiefs fans.
So, we made a little exception
since they care so much
about our wonderful team.
Pretty effervescent, a
little bit of a drier finish,
but kind of, just like a easy drinking,
slightly sweet, clean blonde ale.
Pretty good.
This is a tailgate winner, in my opinion.
(fast paced rock music)
This is coming in at about 5.8%.
That's seems pretty high for
a, I don't know, for a lager.
Alright, so a red lager,
that's kind of cool.
They just roasted the
malt a little bit longer,
but still did the lager process
instead of the ale process.
Normally we see a lot of
lagers that are, you know,
golden in color 'cause
they use really pale malts,
and it goes through and
we just have that light
lagery crisp taste.
But this one, they didn't.
They went a little bit
further with those malts.
It's giving me like, some rye bread vibes,
because you can get the hops in there.
So, it gives you like a
little bit of bitterness,
a little bit of dryness at the end.
There's definitely a bready sweetness,
that's more prevalent than
that first beer that we tried.
Yep, yep.
It's kind of dry at first.
Has like a real sweet middle,
and then it kind of, has
another dry finish at the end.
So, while maybe if they
didn't have enough hops,
I would be like, this beer's
a little running on the sweet side.
It keeps you coming back for more,
'cause it keeps cleaning out the sweetness
with a little bit of hoppiness,.
so it's a cool beer.
Western Missouri, two points
for a safety (laughs).
(fast paced rock music)
Worth The Wait.
Was it worth 50 years, Kansas City?
(fast paced rock music)
Okay, we got some clarity here,
but it's a deep, dark red,
and that smells super fruity,
and kind of like red licorice too.
Very sweet, very malty.
I don't think I've ever said
a beer tastes like licorice before.
Not in like, okay not in like licorice,
like a fennel seed way, like Twizzlers.
It's pretty sweet, pretty malty.
None of my favorite thing
in the world (laughs).
Can I say that?
Touchdown, Kansas City.
(upbeat music)
For this football season,
I'm thinking you want all
these beers at your tailgates,
but early in the season,
still kind of warm out,
boom, you got your Blonde Ale.
It starts getting chilly,
that crisp breeze is coming in,
we've got an October game,
boom, this is your guy.
Then, we've got the cold December games.
You're gonna want something malty,
higher ABV to warm you up.
Your 2020 Kansas City Chiefs
starting lineup right here, baby.
Don't forget to like, subscribe,
and let me know what you'll be drinking
when the Chiefs run it back
for another championship this season.
Fun fact: Kingdom Blonde Ale
comes in a number 15 pack.
Did we get a shot of
my zoobas, by the way?
(upbeat music)
Really should have got it from the gut.
- [Narrator] Yeah, I really think.
I like Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce,
and this one's Andy Reid, baby (laughs).
Know what I'm sayin'?
That's big red, that's a big red.
