What are you drinking now?

Drinking a palate wrecker right now and have a hopslam chilling in the fridge. Don't know if ill drink it tonight since they're only selling by the bottle and you can only get one a day from the place that's carrying it.

Drinking a Hopslam. #5 from the 6er I picked up last week. It is much better if it's poured very aggressively. Still kinda disappointed. It's good, don't get me wrong. Just over-priced and over-hyped.

I agree on the over priced part



I have never had it before, maybe it was better in the past, but I think it's really good.

Ha, I haven't had Sucks, but it's been one of the darlings of this thread recently. I think Brown Shugga is a hot boozy mess, but I've got some in the cellar and think it will be great with a year on it.

And I'm drinking my petite saison. It's what my wife wanted when she got home from work and she won't drink a liter of it by herself. I'm so helpful.

I love it, the rye in it is great, clocking in at 70 IBU awesome aroma. First one Ive had, glad I grabbed a whole sixer instead of just a single.

Followed by a Bell's Two Hearted

Shock top. Not as cutting edge, but only $11.99 a 12 pack and goes down easy.

I think it is really good, Ijust expected more with the hype and price. I had some on draft last weekend and it is a completely different beer then. I definitely prefer it on draft.

Going with a classic tonight.

Great Lakes Edmund Fitzgerald. Yum.

Cigar City Jai-Alai. I love this beer.

Grabbed a growler of Three Creeks Hoodoo Voodoo IPA. Time for beers, Blazers and video games. Totally reminds me of college

Meh

A little top off of Dude's LWPA as I finish packing, if you have not made this beer, give it a try. It was the most fun I have had, maybe because it involves home roasting malt.

(Yes, that's a full honeycomb inner liner to my shipping box)

Finishing a Nugget Nectar as I watch the flyers lose.

Also, I am the same way with packing.. I could drop the box out my window and nothing would break

Ommegang Biere De Mars. 2008 Vintage? Hafta check the bottle. Found it at a big box party store in KY on a recent trip. From the huge amount of sediment and reviews, I was expecting a funk bomb, but it's subtle and delightful. Reminds me of aged De Dolle beers which is about as much praise as I can lavish on an ale.

The last of my Dry Stout.

Made a starter tonight,hoping my first keg gets delivered this weekend so I can keg my Pliny,otherwise Im bottleing(boo!)I really want to keg that, so I can use my fementer to make the Ranger. The show must go on and Ill have to bottle otherwise. I have harvested yeast waiting on me. Attention to detail will make better beer.

Sierra Nevada Torpedo.

It's a mystery

Old English with a chaser of warm Colt 45.

Having a Left Hand Milk Stout while babysitting. Wife has a migraine, so I took off work to help out. Tried a Full Sail IPA earlier, and I wasn't impressed.

Where is the 'Farm to Barrel' glass from?

It's from Almanac. Actually I don't know if you ever followed the 100% Homegrown thread, but he was affiliated with this brewery. It's a small brewery on the Palo Alto peninsula. They do really nice stuff.

Pow! POW! I love the Abrasive, but I think I actually might love the Furious more. It is an amazingly balanced beer, and delicious. And it is downright red.

Four hopped spiced rye saison...

Just finished a Wake N Bake from Terrapin. Never get tired of this stuff.

Yooper i love this oatmeal stout thanks for the recipe

abita restoration pale ale. impresed me

This BP Victory at Sea is hitting the spot on a cold night, delish

Lagunitas Sucks. Possibly the best valued beer ever. Moderate craft beer price/mega-good. A little overwhelmingly-wow. Good-God. Think you love a beer like Hopslam? Drink this. This brewery only keeps inspiring me every time I try another. Guess its just my small opinon though,but Im still giving it a shout-out. I pretty much love all their ****. Everything is like wow! or damn! nearly if not every time.
