What are you drinking now?

Friend came over with some Southern Tier 2X "Uncommon" Steam. Like all of their brews, I find it totally pedestrian in the craft brew constellation, and this one has a weird off flavor I can't place (almost like there's some mint in there).

I only buy beer when I'm in a bar or restaurant. Stuff like this reminds me why...

Cheers!

4 year old bottle of all grain Cream Ale. I found it in my empty bottle stash. Cant believe how good it is!!

Bottle of Magic Rock Strongman barleywine. Very nice (if hugely expensive - but that's not Magic Rock's fault.)

A better photo of the bottle. It's barrel aged.

Just smacked 4 bells two hearted at a chili cook off :buzzed:

Firestone Walker Double Jack

Only my third beer from them and damn it's good. Had their DBA yesterday, didn't think it was nearly as good as this and the Union Jack.

More Heady Flopper. This stuff is CRACK at 8.6% ABV. Can't even taste it!

still haven't had a beer yet. having my root beer.

CCB Good Gourd. I don't really care for pumpkin beers, but I had to pick this one up because the manager told me there was a 1 bottle limit. 100 cases of Pumking on the floor, and this pumpkin beer had a bottle limit. All I can say is wow! Amazing beer, even if it is a pumpkin ale.

If you like bourbon this is a beer for you buzzzzed I am

I fooooooking hate you Gabe I must try some of those beers ;-)

Remmy's Bride of Chucky. Good pumpkin ale - but I'd like a little more spice

HB'd honey red wheat.

It's starting to feel like fall, so I thought this was appropriate. I wasn't going to take a picture of this one but it was pretty when I poured it so i decided to take this pic anyway.

Not my bottle, mine are reserved for my 40th bday and a wedding anny.

Totally agree with that! I said the same thing. This was my first. My next pumpkin will arrive at your doorstep for sure.

I'm two years in and haven't dialed it in yet. My spices weren't too far off, but the vanilla was too faint. To next year!

Lagunitas Maximus Ale. Best beer out there, or perhaps their Little Sumpin' Sumpin. I can't decide. Picked up a 6 pack for the Ohio State game and at 8.2% ABV I'm ready for a night.

The 2005 spec brew was so much better, but snr will catch up no doubt.

I added a tad of vanilla to mine. Just gotta go heavier on the spices. (Maybe double the amount).

The magic rock Strongman barleywine is making me overly too drunk.

Sfrisby's imperial pumpkin. Killer - beer and label!

Last bomber of Stone 17th anniversary at the store I went to today. :rockin:

Another bomber of Double Jack.



This one is fresher than the one I had last night and it's definitely satisfying the craving stirred up by that one.

Success! This is my New Year's Barleywine, so named because it was brewed on New Year's Day this year and has been bulk conditioning since the end of fermentation. Wasn't sure if there would be enough yeast left to carbonate, but there was plenty. It still needs to carb up a bit more and it's got a bit of alcohol heat, but it's good.

This!



Meh it's ok.

Jamils Evil Twin dry hopped with simcoe (1 oz for a 1 gal batch). It's nowhere near clear, but it's damn tasty.

Hydrometer sample of leadgolem's coffee wine before I pasteurize and bottle. Looking forward to this being ready!

A Fat Tire from New Belgium

My pumpkin ale. Probably one beer too many. Smacked.

More of sfrisby's Rumpkinstein (screwed the name up earlier due too poor eyesight) while enjoying a fire on this gorgeous fall evening.

This, a cigar, and gamecock football. I love Saturday!

As close as I will get to a pumpkin beer this fall. Oak aged spiced brown. With my famous chicken soup and homemade dumplings.
