Here's my score from the shop. Going for variety tonight.


First up:


The Farmhouse Wit from Deep Ellum Brewing Co. in Dallas. Just about to celebrate their 1 year anniversary.

Not bad at all. It's like a hoppier wit fermented with saison yeast or an off-beat spiced saison. It's better than when I had it at the brewery because it was a bit young and had a touch of sulfur. None of that now, though.

I went out with coworkers after work and tried Backwoods Bastard. I wasn't impressed at all, the bourbon was too present to me. Maybe it is my indifference to bourbon but who knows.

 

[thirtydirtybirds]

Lagunitas Brown Shugga. A bit hoppy maybe, but I like it.

 

[NateW]

Great Divide Hibernation

 

[MrNic]

Old Chub

 

[NordeastBrewer77]

McNeill's Extra Special Bitter ale. It is indeed extra special, and a good start to a Friday evening.

 

[Genuine]

Having a founders breakfast stout to warm me up and the. Hitting the hay

 

[NordeastBrewer77]

Had to revisit this after talking about it the other night. It is really good, hoppy and lots of bubblegum. Really tasty, and it comes in the Folly Pack. Not a bad deal.

Homebrewed grapefruit wine. 14.7% It's interesting, I expected this to be horrid. It's got a vanillaish aroma. Very smooth and tart. Definitely citrus, but not really specifically grapefruit flavor. It's a bit dry, but I can't really say that's a flaw. The flavors are amazing well balanced.

I'm seriously liking this one. Haven't had a true English IPA in quite some time. NordeastBrewer77, how did you like this one? I noticed you posted that you had it last week.

I like it a lot. It's a pretty complex brew for being so light, lots of hops and yeast flavors going on. Definitely up there on my list.

You guys got my english ale envy, went to a local for an old speckled hen and now onto a draught pint of Bombardier, just delicious

 

[JesperX]

Sierra Nevada Northern Hemisphere Harvest.

Damn this is good this year. Hops are citrusy, piney, and a little spicy. I don't want to say dank cause that's not the right word but there's this muted "green" sort of aroma but not in a bad way. Amusingly enough, I actually really appreciate the malt character in this beer. It's dry and really toasty so it's a great foundation to play with hops.

A sage ale based on the highland heather ale from BYO just subbed sage.. a bottle of the McCormick gourmet sage in place of the additions worked perfect!!

Two of my faves. Kinda jealous that you're drinking a draft Bombardier, I need to get over to Brit's downtown for a few pints and some lawn bowling.


Another beer that ya can't beat for the price.

 

[JesperX]

To end the night. Good god I need a sixer of this. Fantastic this year. It hit 85 here today but it's 25 in my heart. Will definitely be buying again.

 

[WesleyS]

Had a Goose Island Honkers Ale, then a Shiner Oktoberfest, and a couple bourbon and sodas to end the night.

 

[nukebrewer]

My night cap is really big. It's also an amazing night cap.

Had a Lagunitas amber ale tonight and pondered over the 'censored' label. The beer was excellent though!

In the meantime, my decent hefeweizen.

From some cute girl blog. Life is short. Don't sip.

Happy friday

 

[weirdboy]

Just finished this one...

 

[MrNic]

Odell 5 Barrell and IPA. Now Avery White Rascal.

Totally a "that's what she said"! And yes, that's a mighty fine beer there.

Love the Kronik Ale, really good stuff. Also, it's very good for 'pondering'.


As is this one. I don't get this in cans enough, my regular beer bar always has it on tap so most of what I've had's been there. I think it may be better in cans.... that or my recliner and a good smoke provides a better setting. Either way, yum!

Waiting for my white House Honey Porter to be ready for bottling. In the mean time, I'm consoling myself with Paulaner's Salvator and Smith's Taddy Porter.

I just bottled my White House Honey Porter this morning. I hope it's better than the White House Honey Ale. I'm not really enjoying the Honey Ale.

Totally a "that's what she said"!

Ha! I didn't even notice until you mentioned it. Cheers!

It's been a rough week and I'm pounding some Steel Reserve right now for the cheap numbing qualities it provides.

 

[unionrdr]

I'm enjoying a fresh bottle Thirsty Dog's Cerberus that my son just brought me. He & a buddy went there & to hoppin frog like yesterday. Got straight from the brewery. He said you have to get it directly from them. A Belgian trippel,it's really good. And 10% too...

It's San Diego beer week. I went to a Russsian River, Bear Republic tap takeover at Encinitas Ale House last night. Drank pints and tasters of:

Hill 2, Row 56 - beautiful simcoe hopped pale
Pliny the Elder - great on tap as always
Supplication - outstanding clean sour
Sanctification -all brett, funky and not very sour
Consecration - funk and sour. Very nice
Hop Rod Rye - nice spicy rye IPA
Ryevalry - mild Belgian yeast flavors with spicy and citrusy hops and rye.
Mach 10 - one that I didn't care for. English style imperial IPA. Overwhelming sweet hops and English hops.

It was a good night

As I mash my first brew in three weeks. Next up is a hit scotchy. I remembered I wanted to try it while I was out today so I picked up a bottle of scotch, this Pumple Drumkin and a Cottrell Perry's Revenge.
