$2.50. This has got to be the chewiest beer I've ever had. This is what I had in mind when I decided I wanted to brew a dopplebock. This is now my first intentional clone project.

Cisco brewers Indie pale ale.
A very solid ipa. I just looked up the abv, and it surprised me. 7.58%. I thought it would be lower. I'll def be getting this again.

Fullers 2006 Vintage Ale. Not bad for being 6 years old. Decent carbonation, aroma is alcohol, toasted bread and soy sauce. Flavor is pretty much the same as aroma except slightly sweet and touch of caramel. Overall, I'm pleased with this one.

The last one I had, I picked up in West Hollywood, with a case of Baltika, but I found it thin, and harsh, and I am a bock fanatic.
 
Killing that 5 gallons of Upstate Mikes Caramel Apple Cider :)
Got another batch in the fermentor and a Huckleberry Merlot.
Wanting to brew a sweet stout for Christmas but have not finalized recipe.

This is the first time I've had it and my perception is completely different. Full bodied, very sweet bordering on cloying, tons of dark fruit flavors. There's a good bit of alcohol warmth, but it's not harsh or overbearing. I don't know if there was something wrong with the one you had or vice versa, but if you try it again I hope you don't have the same experience. Cheers!
 
Just had a bottle of cinnamon toast crunch milk stout homebrew and now Terrapins Pumpkinfest while waiting for the arrival of hurricane Sandy!!

Too funny, I almost grabbed a Blackheart instead of this. I think it's beginning to pop up a lot of places. This and Red Shield a both pretty new here. Pretty good stuff.

The only reason I picked it up for you was because SAB said Worthington's wasn't available there. Upon closer inspection, though, it looks like SAB only includes US breweries.
 
Oskar Blues Deviant Dale's IPA, kicks my ass every time. Had an Italian beer from Trader Joes "Nero's First Century", very interesting, like a light bodied doppelbock with heavy phenols.

It'd be a good choice, a month or so ago I would've flipped $hit to get one. Sadly, the store that has the great selection of English ale replaced the Hepworth beers with the Worthington's, Hepworth makes an amazing pale ale, Pullman. I'm planning on bugging them about that this week when I go get beer. :D

Drinking a SN Celebration. Very good this year.
 
Home brewed rhodomel. 12.3% The rose petals gave it fantastic color, but did absolutely nothing for the aroma or flavor.
 
Out of work early, time to get ready to bottle my IIPA and maybe new up my choc stout if we still have power. Lagunitas maximum ipa. Solid IIPA.

Still at work while sandy goes through, we've all been waiting to get the word to head home. I got some lagunitas imperial red and Cisco pumple drumkin waiting at home.
