O and BEER! (Mendocino's Blue Heron)

So I've decided I'm also going to post my reviews on beer here as well.  My cousin and aunt have very graciously signed me up for a beer club, and this is as good as place as any to put my ramblings here.  While I love beer a lot, I'm not very knowledgeable in a lot of the flavors.  This means, that most of my reviews will be quite...stupid.

First out the gate:   Mendocino Brewing Co.  Blue Heron Pale Ale

It's not bad.  It tastes like a decent pale ale.  Not very hoppy at all, but has some boldness to it.  Kind of surprising given how mild the spices are.  A question I always ask is "Would I order this again or try something new?"  Given how much I like to try new beers, this is quite a difficult measure.  The Blue Heron does indeed fail to reach this bar.  This might be due to the fact that if I'm going to order a pale ale, I'm probably going to order an IPA.  Overall its drinkable, but very forgettable.
