Brainstorming ways to avoid the inevitable 405 Carmageddon, my best idea came in the form of Wile E. Coyote's famous green flying suit. This ACME image forever stands out as a favorite childhood memory, and serves as a major tease for this weekend's wishful transportation solution.
It also inspired YourNextPint's beer choice, ACME Pale Ale, which unfortunately like every cartoon ACME product, failed in the worst possible way.
The Washdown:
- amber colored, two finger head that doesn't last long, yeasty yet off-putting nose, watery taste ACME Pale Ale (North Coast Brewing Co. in Fort Bragg, CA) 5% ABV
ACME's nose is almost indescribable – metallic, tap watery, uncooked yeast? Whatever it is, it isn't good. At least the taste is a bit better, but not enough for redemption.
And just like the relentless coverage of Southern California's most popular freeway road closure, the end of this pint glass couldn't come quicker.
