A friendly place for friends who drink

[thatjonguy]

Remind me, wasn't there something else you wanted and I drunkenly said I'd send it?

Possibly? I was probably drunk as well.

I am kind of a beer whore, so there is a good chance that I wanted it.

I have 2 left of the BB... Got lucky last week on a random pack sitting warm in the corner.

Also, Central Waters' BBA Stout is really good. Shame that it's a tad lower than 10%, but solid as hell.

I wish we got CW up here, no such luck. Glad to hear they got the infection issue under control with Peruvian Morning.

The only viable perspective that can be obtained when looking at humanity in any form on any scale:



"We're all f***ed. Let's get drunk."

Or the reverse.


More mild. My sixth. Sober as a judge.

It must be the change of thread that is making me sick.

Yeah, no issues on this run. So far, anyway...

Goodnight alchys. If I survive work tomorrow, I'll be back.

Goodnight friends. If I survive work tomorrow, I'll be back.

@BigPerm 's Black Death BA RIS. Bottled 3/2/2014.

Very good.

The head formation had me a little worried when I poured it but the beer flavor seems stable.

Do you water down your Quil?

Just shoot it and get it over with.

Another Tripel. This clocks in at 10%. That's like, 2 more than that.

When did upside down day start?

Water down and sip on it. I can shoot it, but I want to feel like I am drinking some wild turkey.

Heh. I'm really a fan of this stuff.

More Apfelwein.

Watching Homeland marathon.

As am I. Duh.

I've got that beer on the calendar for March. But three different Milds (in addition to the one I already have in bottles) between now and then.

I need to get something back in polypins.

 

[BigPerm]

I generally think The Bruery beers aren't nearly worth the price but decent (just way overpriced). I thought that one was *almost* justifiable. I don't mind a little acetic in a Flemish ale

I agree with you, and I don't mind acetic either in low-sub threshold levels. This was just pushing the envelope in a way I wasn't expecting for less than 18 months. I'm enjoying it, for sure. Not my favorite of theirs though, that title goes to Tart of Darkness. Sadly, their prices aren't too far off par these days...

However, '14 Oude Tart blended 1:1 with '14 Blackout Stout is $$$$$$

I might brew this one again soon, but I'm throwing down a IIPA and a Porter first. Gotta get some of this blood out of my alcohol stream.

Overprimed. Switched to weight after this. Annoying.

Glad you liked!

I lied. Here's #6. My bad. Still sober enough to talk to a cop about race relations.

Been there before.

How much bourbon is in here?

 

[mhurst111]

It fits in the glass like a glove.

See, Tart of Darkness I thought was an overpriced unbalanced ripoff. Sour Stouts are hard (impossible? don't think I've ever had one I'd call perfect) to get right. Cantillon *almost* did it with '15 Zwanze- it was balanced, which most sour stouts I've had are not, but boring as a result. But that one was the closest I've had (aside from my own, but I'm probably biased and which admittedly has balance problems and harshness, much like Tart of Darkness does, but more character than the '15 Zwanze).

Side table p0rn.

Oh, and nice lemon juice flavor. Decent option.

I was underwhelmed by the bottle I had. Wasn't terrible but didn't really pop. I bought two and have been sitting on the second for 8.5 months now. I'm hoping some age helps.

It is almost near a sour version of a Radler.

Reasonable option.

That's a fair description. I recall a harsh metallic note in there I wasn't fond of.

Not in this, that I could get.

2014, though.
