This summer I did a post about Sketchbook Day Game – I also had their other baseball themed beer a couple months after that. It’s called – Night Game!
Brewery: Sketchbook Brewing Co. in Evanston, IL
Beer: Night Game
Description: “Double IPA with Mosaic Hop and honey. Huge tropical fruit, citrus and floral flavors and aromas. The malt is simple and lends a drier and refreshing IPA.”
This is basically their Day Game beer – a “Midwest” IPA with honey – but as an imperial IPA. So 8% plus ABV instead of 6%. It was a bit sweeter than the regular and obviously packed a bit more punch. I enjoyed this one – but actually liked the Day game better.
The Day Game beer I enjoyed when baseball was on COVID hiatus and during a Field of Dreams viewing in our house. Conveniently, I had the Night Game version in September when baseball was back and I was able to watch a night game!
Medium: I had it from a 16 oz can, I’m sure they also put it out on draft.
How it’s related to baseball: It’s named after a baseball term! This is one of 2 beers with this theme. This one, as the nighttime version, is meant to be drank at night when you don’t need to worry about staying as sober!
