Had RobErazo and one other guy by today to open a couple bottles while I brewed a hoppy tripel for a homebrew competition. Not a bad beer in the bunch.

I put a ring on it, so I guess it is now.

No joke, worst idea ever.

My group tried to do our own "Hell Night" (cause those prick holes at East Coast Grill sold out all the reservations in an hour) where we paired the hottest food we could make with a barrel aged barley wine tasting. I literally put a filled produce bag of scotch bonnets and serranos into the blender for one thing I made. People were non-stop crying. I think someone caught on fire.

Anyways…I feel that pain.

pre- this is happening V tasting.

Good to know I'm not the only one finishing off a tasting with Tums.

 

[bathroomlaughter]

pretty good

 

[Bill2]

Personal favorite: NG Sour Fruit and Quetsche.

Blending 3F OG with intense red, good idea. Blending Tilquin Quetsche and 3F OG, good idea. Tilquin + intense red + 3f OG, good idea. NG Sour fruit, tilquin, 3f OG, good idea. DDG + intense red, good idea.

i went to a tasting too...i took a camera also...and i managed to snap some photos...will share tomorrow (or just check the LNBT thread - been a LONG day).

do you even whaelsbro?

 

[MordorMongo]

Nah, we cannot possibly ball as hard as you do. No whaelsbro.

But good people, good food and a good time anyway.

i think the wildcard factor here is pork consumption. if a man eats over 1lb of candied bacon and pulked pork before even consuming one beer, the itis will dominate otherwise simple actions, such as getting his ass up and grabbing a camera. i personally dont place blame.

neorunner hosted the first ever DC Reuben Smash last night. He made some delicious pork which was way better than ruebens ever could be. We did however also have some damn fine ruebens. Here is the end result. Note the rare 2003 inverted color bottle.

 

[Iliketurtles]

Here is a series of photos showing neorunner crushing that whole cuvee during a game of THUNDER.

[Iliketurtles]

Two hands. Game on now.

 

[Iliketurtles]

Almost there.

 

[Iliketurtles]

Needed an all day IPA to finish the game. Can't believe he finished that cuvee in under 4 minutes.

 

[Iliketurtles]

For those of you interested 2002 was definitely the best of the vertical epic, right bum732 ?
