This post is a continuation of the 2015 New Beer Every Day Beer Diary Challenge, #ottbeerdiary. Over the course of 2015, I drank at least one new beer every day. Please read the background in the link above, and enjoy reading about the most recently tasted beers below. This year I may deviate from the diary format in some posts, hoping to concentrate more on the locations and the breweries I am enjoying. If you’d like to join the challenge as well, let me know in the comments below. You can catch up on all of our posts as part of the challenge under the tag ottbeerdiary.
Day 372: January 7, 2016
Diary entry:
Tonight is the end of the challenge.
I have a health check at 3PM tomorrow, and I’m not supposed to consume any alcohol for 24 hours prior to the health check. And I didn’t get home for dinner until 6:30 PM.
Oh, to hell with that!
I’m not letting this end that easy. One light beer 23 hours before the check won’t throw anything off. I already had the blood drawn, all I need tomorrow is some physical checks and a cycling test.
So I will keep this going for the foreseeable future…with tonight being one of the lowest alcohol beers I have left in the stash…

Name: Sologne Blanche
Style: Witbier

Sologne Blanche by Chambord Gastronomie. A 4.9% ABV witbier purchased at the Chambord Gastronomie gift shop at Château de Chambord in the Loire Valley of France. Light golden color with quite a bit of white head. Some bitter flavors, with hints of lemon in the wheat. A bit watery though.
