time to play the "can you name this style by the pictures" game.

Founders Backwoods Bastard

Jordan's got it. Bourbon barrel-aged Scotch ale/Wee Heavy. You're up!

 

[JordanKnudson]

Nice! Would love to try that if I ever get the chance.

Okay, here we go...I'm going to ask for the specific brew here, because realistically if you are able to figure out style and adjunct, you know the beer.

I'll start with this hint: Brewed here or there, but not by an ass, to fool the devil himself.

 

[TooDogly]

Anchorage Brewing A Deal With The Devil

 

[JordanKnudson]

Nope (not the style, either, so there's a hint).

It was once noted that it was unfair, to give you a beer that's not sold everywhere, but those same fine gents did just what any man would, and brewed with the big guys from America's manhood.

 

[MrFeltimo]

Widmer Brothers/Cigar City, Gentleman Club?

 

[JordanKnudson]

You are on the right track, but again, wrong style.

 

[JordanKnudson]

To clarify (and point you in the right direction), MrFeltimo correctly interpreted the latter half of my last hint, but the first part still needs more consideration.

 

[chocotaco]

Changing my guess to:

El Bizarron - Cigar City / 5 Rabbit

 

[MrFeltimo]

chocotacos got this one...

 

[JordanKnudson]

Changing my guess to:

El Bizarron - Cigar City / 5 Rabbit

Yessir! El Bizarron from Chicago brewery 5 Rabbit in collaboration with Cigar City. An export porter brewed with caramelized plantains. Surprisingly good and you can actually taste the plantains!

Ok guys, here's the next one. I'm doing this from my ipad for the first time so apologies if it comes out sideways. Also sorry to post late, but I was driving all day to get this beer.

Please name the specific beer. To shake things up a bit, instead of giving riddle-iculous hints, I'm going to answer yes-or-no questions until the answer is found.

Is it a local brewery for you? (let's say that means anything from LA to San Diego metro areas)

you said you was driving all day to get this beer, did you have to go to the brewery itself?
