What are you drinking now?

This surpasses my expectations but I am not a connoisseur of strong Belgians. I will however, say that I've had a better American Tripel...right down the road from my house...Final Absolution. I also rank FA as #1 in the world in beer names.

Just a gallon. Im not sure how the chocolate I used is going to turn out and wanted to be able to make quite a few test runs without having so much to drink. It smelled amazing though

I thought it that was pretty good for being a hoppy tripel. I am making my first triple here soon that is based off a FA clone but iv never had it before.

Final Absolution is more banana than this. I went to a food pairing with all Dragonmead beers this past summer. They paired FA with bananas foster for dessert. THAT was something else. For my money, Dragonmead, while known for their Belgians, makes some of the best dark beers around. Their Wee Heavy (Under the Kilt) out of the tap was the best strong Scotch Ale I've ever had. I guess I say the same about FA but the difference is I'm not big on Belgian ales.

Not bad for the price. It's decent. Not funky enough for me but it's easy-drinking.

Off to a five year old's birthday party. Drink good beers for me...and watch hoops for me...damn it!

This is really well done.

A version of Tasty's session pale ale, it is a really good beer... I liked the way the sun lit this one up.

Glad you liked it. Exit 16 (wild rice DIPA) is pretty good too. I haven't had it yet, but they also just came out with Exit 1 (Oyster Stout).

Very true, I was already followed all the way home from a bar by a ****** cop sitting in a parking lot last night.

After a day working on small jobs on the house I really need to have some words with the electrician/finishing guy. Lots of halfassed finishing.
Had a Hop Notch and now for a Sixth Glass.

Just grabbed one out of my first batch , not bad at all it's the caribou slobber that came with my kit .
