Recently, had
3notch’d No Veto Brown ale, nice flavor, but a bit too nutty for me.
Ardent Red Ale, pretty blah
Ardent’s Double IPA, right on the money, not sharing with anyone
Lickinghole Creek’s Maiden’s Adventure, a lightly flavored belg that I really didn’t expect, great beer while waiting for a to go order.
Some large can of cider my wife wanted, that I cant remember the name, it was nasty shit.
While I was at the beach this weekend, the store down there called Trio, had Bomb, prairie artisan ales on draft, and it was worth the $11 for a draft. I also managed to score the last bottle of Bomb from them as well.
I had Founders: Redankulous and it was pretty tasty as well.
We were smoking a brisket, and it required 1 Texas beer, so my dad buys a six pack of modelo. He thinks Texas is Mexican now. One of the pissiest beers ever, reminded me of Milwaukee’s Beast.
Went to the local brewpub and had the pops up this weekend with his stash.
Hardywood Bourbon Sidomo- Very good
Hardywood Quadrahop- One of the best DIPAs I have had. Next to impossible to obtain.
2014 Founders breakfast stout. It was okay, not worth the great rating.
2015 Founders breakfast stout. Same old.
Firestone Walker Velvet Merlin: Nice, smooth, better than the FBS, most likely due to the oatmeal.
Ballast Point Sexatant Nitro, very nice, smooth, light head.
Aleworks Jubilee-nice, no head, more of a liquor, will not repeat.
Maine Beer Co. Red Wheel Barrow: It was okay, not my fav brownish type. Will pass.
Goose Island: The Muddy-it was drinkable but not my style. Only 1.
Bluefrog Brewery-Sacre Bleu- Nice tart ale, more of a girl drink
Ballast Point Wahoo White with Thai Chili, Lime and Ginger- I tasted this, and everyone should. Very neat beer. Front loaded with Ginger and finishes with the Chili.
Allagash Confluence- Fabulous beer. Expensive, but good.
Founders Black Penance: Tried this, but not a fan.
Tonnellerie Rue* The Bruery Terreux - CA - Belgium Saison that was okay.
If you happened to be some of the lucky few, yesterday…
Bourbon County’s Beer release yesterday was definitely worth it. The Coffee Stout being one of the best beers I have ever had. Scored 8 regular stouts and 5 barleywine yesterday. Both of those are awesome as well.
I know some people aren’t fans of dark beers, but these beers will change your mind.
@Lala The firestone is their anniverseray ale that is a blend of 200+ oak barrels and 4 different beers, real tasty stuff.
The Firestone anniversary 19 is really good. Where did you pick up the Pliny? Is that a regular pick up for you, or something special? -Rau
I actually picked it up at Total Wine, I went to the back and they had 2 cases sitting on the floor (2 bottle per person limit). My buddy popped by a few hours later and it was gone. Pliny is still pretty rare to find in shops around here but can be found pretty easily if you do some homework, and not too difficult to find on tap with taphunter.
So I had the Pliny last night, it was good, but nothing worth chasing in my opinion. I actually prefer the IPA’s that come from my local brewery, bottle logic. If you would like to see about doing a beer trade some time let me know. I am very close to a number of breweries (Bottle Logic, The Bruery, Bootleggers, Nobile Aleworks)
Actually stopped by bottle logic last night for Star Wars night. Please note the Tuttle/Princess Leia look alike in the background of the last pic.
lol I have spotted them a few times at my local bottle shop, unfortunately they put a limit of 1 per person. Next time I see anything I will give you a heads up.
