Did you have my sour stout yet? Just wondering.

Had a 2013 of that last weekend and had hints of infection but still tastey


Yo. Look. I passed it a lot because I thought it was left hand.
Aroma: super sour. In a great way.
Head: none, like my Friday night.
Color: dark, like I like 'em.
Taste: sour, tart, not much roast from a stout. I feel it's an exceptional sour though. Can't taste the 8%, which is dangerous.
Mouthfeel: thinner than I expected but right in line with a sour.

$8?!?!?!

Screw you

Edit: I live 20 miles from the brewery and paid almost twice that amount. ****


Sorry, I meant $9. :p
Also, what about Red Thunder? I've never picked up much from Victory. I always seem to just pass them by. Is the Red Thunder worth $10?
 
Back from club meeting. I bring a Galaxy-hopped American Pale Ale with Rye (well received BTW) and am legitimately asked "no seriously, who brewed this". As opposed to my EKG-hopped English-styled Robust Porter much more my normal style.

Drinking root beer right now. Then moving on to more Bluebird on cask.

That's reasonably cheap too. I drank almost a case of it. It's pretty strong on the red wine character, so if you like red wine and porters, you'll like it.
 
Can't explain the foam. :-( setting this up for after my sour.

Turn that Spencer Trappist glass around so we can see it in all its glory. ;)

Looks like I'll be picking one of them up as well. Thanks for weighing in. I'd much rather get the opinions of you alchies than go anywhere near BA for reviews on beer. :D
 
I almost feel bad for ************, or lack there of.


If you're referring to my awesome Spaten glass, the awesomeness of the carb level in the cider, or the fact that I'm drinking awesome homebrewed hard cider, then I believe the saying is, Shut you're whore mouth! ;)
 
So is mine.

I read somewhere that IPA goes well with cheese. How does that make you feel?

Red River and lemonade. I don't always put stuff in my whiskey, but when I do, drive I should not. :drunk:

Working on my 3rd Two Hearted. I could go for cheese. Or grilled cheese. Not picky. :D




5 day weekend starts now. Golden road 329 lager.

Christmas is over. Go home, you're drunk! :p

Got the old beast running. Yippe-i-o-kayee-martha-floccer's. Not smoothly at all with plenty of stalls (and bleeding knuckles), but I did get to use it on some snow. Even got down to pavement in a few spots! :what::eek:
 
I had a few more beers that I guess I didn't have since I didn't take pics (including a floccing excellent HB historic IPA that used 11 oz of EKG in a 2.5 gallon batch), so we'll consider this a nightcap (my glass is on the right - shhh don't tell wifey):
 
I never give it any consideration. The pours for judging are so small you generally don't see lacing. As far as the head goes, points are awarded for texture, color, and head retention. Can you imagine if we judged samples large enough to notice any lacing that might show? :tank::drunk: That's not to say I don't enjoy good lacing, I just don't consider it when judging.

I consider it when judging when appropriate (belgians and IPAs specifically), but like I said, it's only 3 points anyway, so lacing is maybe a half point in the grand scheme of things.

As I've read all the problems you've been having with that thing, I just kept thinking of this. I would've probably beaten the crap out of that snowblower a long time ago. :D
