Random Beer Thoughts

So apparently cloudy-as-**** IPAs are now the new trend?

Why would they do this as a black IPA? I was all about this until getting to that detail.

I have a feeling it's a typo, since they have an enjoy by black IPA on the same date

Wtf? How is there not an ESPN Classic HD? I like the idea of just the crowd and the PA for the nat'l championship. But I'll die before I watch sports in SD.

Grapefruit Sculpin was a thing?

This is a salt and grapefruit IPA called Sea Farmer. You all need to get on this, 'cos this is one of the best IPA's I has drunk.

Worth noting this is a mislabelled Crowler. I planned drinking a Coconut Milk IPA and instead drank my new favourite beer.

Milk sugar and Coconut. Will report back tomorrow, If it wasn't Fieldworks I might be concerned.

It's only a bit on the malty side of things.

And... I dunno, an ode to SN? A yearly "celebration" of the fact that you're still not bored drinking SNPA?

Maybe it's just the spices they use, who knows.

I have a sweet vertical building, hope those spices hold up.

This is intruiging

Shoddy Google translatation:
"...collaborative beer from Goose Island (USA) and Wals, the Alembic County.The recipe is a Black Tripel with 11.5% alcohol, 40 IBUs (bitterness unit), bananas raisins, baru nuts and another 5 months in French oak barrels containing rum Salinas (MG)."

Nothing about that label sounds particularly intriguing to me.

I feel like so many of these collaborations follow the same pattern: bizarre recipe/style matchup, huge ABV, tons of adjuncts, some kind of barrel. This is like the main content of Stone's non-hoppy playbook these days.

I just thought it was a cool looking bottle with the half bourbon county logo.

Does that mean it is only half infected?

I think the better question would be "have YOU ever tried to pay the lease on an S-Class Mercedes?"

It came out in Portland about a week ago but I know a lot of places aren't releasing it till this weekend for some reason.

Coconut Milk IPA.

Other Coconut IPA's? This works, i was very dubious, would try other versions.

Milk sugar ( lactose) and its impact on taste, I know nothing about, I just get the coconut.

We got kegs of the Bourbon BA version downunder last month. Not sure on regular though.

It was a perfect beer for the Australian summer...

Yep, I know about it and would love to try it. Much respect to Barry and co. at Fieldwork. When Barry owned Local Habit he was the first to tap a keg of R&R.

Side note: The first batch of coconut IPA I made had lactose but Robert and I decided to leave it out in future versions.

You wanna try it? More than happy to send a Crowler. Let me know.
