What are you drinking now?

Drinking water in between beers but wanted to show how the storm has progressed.

 

I could see this being a good daily drinker.

 

Sweet bottle. What's that from?

 

My first homebrew. A hobgoblin clone not sure what I like better the real thing or mine. Ok I lied mines way better.... Because I made it!

 

Picked out by SWMBO.. She did good.

 

How has it aged so far? The divine 12

 

Sam Adams Pumpkin Ale,shure is a nice break having this and plus its still cold out as Flip. Pretty solid spiced pumpkin ale as well. Cheers!

 

I believe it's a negra modelo bottle I got from a coworker...dam foil was tough to get off

 

Not really enjoying it. I think with more aging it will be better. I just got four of these today from my sister's in laws. I figured I'd try one now and let the other three age.

 

I thought that might be sanitizer? That storm looks Buuurley! Oh and Im thinkin I may have a Lagunitas Brown shugga next.

 

Ah. Didn't recognize it without the gold bling.

Good to know . I've got 5 left and I plan on sitting on them for awhile.

 

Yeah no schlitz....It is working!

Ok, heavy super malty and strong.....warm alcohol. I'd say they pulled it off for 16%, rich but fully drinkable if you're in for the night. I'm in.

 

Next IPA ...

 

That's probably a good idea.

 

Smoked Black IPA.. Starting to lose its hop aroma, but still enjoyable... Really love the combo of hop and smoke.. The light above the beer is from a city plow truck stuck in the snow, wheels spinning.

 

Black Butte. Second beer from Deschutes I've had, (first was chainbreaker) and so far, 2 for 2. :rockin:

 

Rogue Mogul & Heavy Seas cask Pegleg Stout.

 

A glass of Dogfish Head Midas Touch. About to head to a local brewpub for some of their tasty Vanilla Porter.

 

Wait until you have their Obsidian Stout or NWPA.

 

Boulevard smokestack series Long Strange Triple. Got a 4 pack of the smokestack series sampler with a glass

 

Yeah, hopefully the local place will get those two in. They didn't have the NW in today, though I've seen it there before. It was just last month that we've even been able to get Deschutes here in IL.

 

Boulevard Smokestack series Saison Bret is on deck. Having a Left Hand Milk Stout right now.

 

Right on, although my location says St. Louis I'm actually in IL as well. I just used to get my Deschutes fill when I would venture over to the MO side. We don't get Firestone Walker on my side of the river for some reason either so I still get that on the other side. I haven't seen any 22oz bottles of Deschutes yet or even their Inversion IPA. I've seen Chainbreaker, NWPA, Black Butte, Obsidian, and Mirror Pond.

 

PBR while running some calibration dry runs (with just water, so I guess wet runs) on my new equipment (marking my mash paddle for volume, checking boiloff rate, dead space, etc).

 

Deschutes Red Chair NWPA from Swarley88, this is an amazing beer

 

An Abita 25th Anniversary Vanilla Doubledog. I really like this beer even though it goes against almost everything I usually enjoy about a beer. It is very mild flavored with almost no hop flavor but it is VERY easy drinking. I don't know if I have ever had a dark 7% beer I could see me drinking after a hard day work but I could this one.

 

I'm on the opposite side of the state out in BFE. Selection is severely limited around here, but they've always got good stuff in. I know I can always get either Torpedo or one of a variety of SA at the place I go to. Also, I recently tried the O'Fallon 5 day IPA and liked it a lot. Just a shame they package in those twist-off bottles.

 

These IPAs are going down very easily tonight!

 

Belma/2-row SMaSH

 

New Crown Royal Maple is fantastic

 

Now on to my dark lager. Is this dark enough for a Schwarzbier? It gets its color from pale chocolate, c120 and special b malts.

 

Jai Alai!

 

Founder's Red's Rye Pale Ale from trade with swarley88. Man, I love rye. This beer is really good. I just put a ton of rye and chocolate rye in a imperial stout, I think rye is going incorporated into a lot more of my beers.

 

When You're on a roll you keep on going!



(Oh - and I just picked up an entire case of this today! )

 

Crappy picture, great beer. Agree with AllenH, I'm really diggin rye

 

The like is as much for Jackson Hole as for the beer!
