Random Beer Thoughts

Maybe because they realized the only way to sell all they had on hand was to distribute it.

Not sure I have been in a beer store in the last two weeks that did not have Farmhouse Noir on the shelf.

You keep saying this & I keep dying a little more inside each time.

 

[Der Fuchs]

Oh my god, they're gorgeous!

What the hell has chris Elliot been doing these days anyway?

Seriously, tell them to distro that down here and I'll buy up all of it

Always wondered why this beer gets a bad rap. It's a fantastic, perfectly tart saison - no "...for a dark beer" qualifier needed.

Agreed. I'd love another one if anyone needs a huna.

I can get you a Farmhouse Noir if you're serious and want it.

Stuck in a time loop somewhere in Pennsylvania.

 

[Farnsworth]

Waiting by my answering machine for that call/invite!
I even have SARA for you!























But it's only Farmhouse Noir

Absolutely love Farmhouse Noir.

 

[Farnsworth]

Pretty much this. Still a great beer but I'd bet Farnsworth would be a bit more excited if I was able to do a pick up of some WA or Bernice when I was there.

Never had WA, but I would certainly put Farmhouse Noir up with Bernice. Im just always happy to have more SARA in my life!

Pupil pour at Rare Barrel. Hazy as hell, unbelievably delicious. arren

4 Brewers are noobs and dumb.

Drank some apricot beers today. All good beers, but...

Fou > West Ashley > Map of the Sun > La Fosse > Apricot Stonington

We had a blind peach beer tasting today.

tl;dr Veritas peach beers are holding up incredibly well, while Side Project fruited beers seem shallow and one-note.

Also, Fantasia is still one of the best beers in the world.

I'm currently enjoying a beer called "scotch."
Am I doing this wrong?

Was Peche n Brett aka my favorite beer on this planet, involved?

It was, and consensus was mixed.

Had a decent flavor, but aroma and depth just wasn't there. Plus that 10% ABV booziness can be offputting for some, myself included.

Westly=Fou>Peche n Brett>Fantasia>Imp Apricot Bu=West Ashley>Map of the Sun.

Tomorrow if I thought about it again, it would be a completely different order. Fantasia in particular can be all over the map for me. And I've fortunately never had any of the "dud" Fou bottles. And Map of the Sun is still amazing.

 

[Podunkparte]

Weird, I could sit with a glass of PnB and just smell it all day. And I've never noticed a booziness. If anything I'm left talking about how I can't believe it's 10%.

The nose on PnB is sooooo good. Last one I had was a full on blast of musty peaches in the best possible way. I can't think of a better smelling beer. It's my favorite peach/apricot beer next to Fou, but I've also never had WA, Fantasia, or any stone fruit De Garde.

 

[Shakedwnst]

We had a few apricot beers a couple weeks ago. I'd rank them imperial apricot bu > filmishmish > map of the sun. Some had the filmishmish first.

From memory I'd put fou ahead of them all.

These are my exact thoughts as well. Love that beer. Impresses the hell out of me every time I'e had it how drinkable it is for 10%.

 

[stupac2]

PnB is one of those weird beers where I have just never gotten it. I think there's something about Logsdon's yeast that I flat-out hate. None of their beers do anything for me.

 

[HenrikO]

Yay, I don't have to trade for KBS this year, it's going to be released in Sweden!

What with Avery Tweak on release here it's going to be a good spring for #bigstouts.

 

[NAD1983]

I've also never had WA, Fantasia, or any stone fruit De Garde.

That will most certainly be rectified when you visit Seattle.

 

[JonathanAmes]

Out of a fridge stocked with delicious, rare beer the thief decided to take the Fantasia. I think that speaks volumes as to its quality.

Theft is one of those things that will never understand in this hobby... You're never going to get out of it what you miss from being a person people trust. smdh. And don't even get me started on the rampant theft at releases.

 

[JCastle1]

Its the least exciting Sara beer.....which most other breweries would love to have in their lineup.

I feel like you've never had Tripod before...

 

[falc0n26001]

Oh yeah. I forgot about Imperial Orchard Bu. How could I?!? What a beer. And Veritas 13.

I ******* love peach/apricot beers. Funnily enough, my girlfriend hates apricot beers. She doesn't like the subtle "rubbery" taste they can have. She did not like West Ashley. But thankfully, she loved Bernice.

 

[arren]

I like apricot beers far more than peach beers, but that's likely probably because I've never really had a truly great peach. Even the ones I've had at farmer's markets or whatever have never been spectacular.

A truly great peach is as good as it gets.

I've never had a decent apricot, but I love many apricot things.
