Yea...I'll let you know how it goes down by giving updates throughout the evening

Ya know what's funny? I was never an IPA guy, and the more and more I got into good beer, the more and more I started to "understand it." Now that I'm brewing, I even appreciate it more, and now? This IPA is dadgum delicious!

I am partial to Sam Adams just because the labels are so darn easy to get off after a short time soaking!

Mmmmmmm...Beer on a Friday night. Whose with me?

I'm drinking a black imperial ipa I brewed back in August 2011, delicious!

Cheers!

Drinking a Kirkland Belgian White from Costco at the moment. Their beer is cheap, yet surprisingly good and the bottles are tough as nails! I had an empty fall off the counter onto tile and all it did was bounce.
Bottoms up!

I've never been to a Costco, and don't even have one near me. I hear good things about this store, but never had the opportunity to grace it's presence. That's what you get for living in the styx...Come sail away...Come sail away...Come sail away with me. Lads.

The exact same thing happened to me. I didn't care much for the flavor of hops. Yet today when I went to a local craft brew store 3 of the 6 pack sampler I bought were IPA's. I'm drinking an Abita Jockamo IPA right now! Oh, and I'm even going to grow hops this year. Quite a change for a guy that didn't like the taste of hops!

Completely agree. When I went to my LHBS on Wednesday night, I bought my first grain bill. The guy told me to go in the fridge to get the hops...I opened the door and it smelled divine. I went from shuddering at the smell of hops, to completely digging it. God I love beer.

While I was at the craft beer store today at lunch the guy working (who is a friend) gave me a sample of an IPA he made with pure simcoe. It was delicious! I've decided after the porter I'm brewing next weekend I will be making an IPA.. I recently ordered the discount priced Hops bundle from Austin Homebrew, and quite a few varieties from Midwest as well...

+1 Abita Jockamo IPA. There's a Cajun restaurant in downtown Saint Louis called Riverbend, the chef's from Orleans and had been cooKing the style for 20+ years. Awesome food, and my first Abita.

BIIPA retired, on to a Tank 7 Farmhouse Ale.
