    Christmas Eve Brew

    I've got a Hair of the Dog Cherry Adam from the Wood warming up right now. Cabernet with dinner tonight.

    Samuel Adams Chocolate Bock is Back!

    I had a bottle of the first release with a couple of years on it, and it seemed worse for the wear. I don't think there is enough alcohol there. Also it's not bottle conditioned. I'm not a big fan, so YMMV.

    Calling the KC crew!

    Damm, my wife is working, and I've got to take a kid to b-ball practice. Enjoy KC.

    What beer did you drink today?

    I had a year old Bell's Expedition last night that was just stellar. Rich, creamy and smooth. That's the first time I've had one with any age on it. I'll definitely be cellarring a few from this year's batch.

    Thanksgiving Beers

    I think we're drinking Pinot Noir with the turkey, but I always drink a Sierra Nevada Celebration sometime during the day on Thanksgiving.

    Good beer day..

    Nice score. Unfortunately, I've never had any of the Russian River IPAs. I saw the Mikkeller Black in the store the other day, but couldn't pull the trigger on a $17 pint!

    What beer did you drink today?

    I had a good beer weekend. Friday night, I enjoyed a bottle of Deschutes Black Butte XX (Thanks Jonas!). Good beer, but I like the Abyss more. Saturday night my brother brought over his bottle of Firestone Walker 10, and I cracked the 11 for a little vertical tasting. I think the 10 had faded a...

    Happy B-Day John (JonDot)

    Hope you had a good birthday. I'm glad I finally got to meet you.

    Choklat

    I've been back and forth on Southern Tier, but I do like that they try some unique stuff. I really liked the Creme Brulee, but I like sweet stouts. It went great with a RyJ Churchill. I also really liked the Pumpking. I found the Oat kind of harsh. The Cherry Saison was alright, I didn't get...

    Firestone Twelve

    I'd love to get a bottle of this if any of you west coasters could hook me up.

    Where in Colorado Springs?

    I went a couple of years ago, and we had lunch at Phantom Canyon. I thought the food and the beer were pretty good. If he's looking to bring beer back, he should check out Coaltrain Liquors.

    Today's Smoke

    Had a 2005 Punch Punch yesterday. Classic. Great construction, lots of smoke and great flavor.

    Stone Verticle Epic 08-08-08?

    I've had a couple of bottles, but couldn't find any notes or reviews. It's fairly hoppy for a Belgian style (they use American hops), but still has some of that spice and fruitiness from the yeast. It's worth a try. I get together with a few guys every month, and we each bring a bottle of...

    Smuttynose Baltic Porter

    That sounds delicious! Great review.

    Haandbryggeriet Dark Force

    Sorry no pictures. Kansas recently started getting Nogne O, Haandbryggeriet, Mikkeller, and a bunch of other expensive beers that I can't pronounce. I'd recommend it for all the RIS fans out there. 500ml bottle, Batch 90. Bottle conditioned. Served in a snifter. Poured a deep, opaque...

    That's a nice lineup!

    What beer did you drink today?

    I'm back and forth on the 90 Minute. I got to drink some this week in Florida and really enjoyed it. But the last time I brought some home from a trip, I found it a little lacking in hops, much more to the malty side. I drank a six of 60 Minute that I picked up in the spring, I almost thought...

    What beer did you drink today?

    We just started getting Mikkeller in Kansas, but not that one. They said it will be on the way. I picked up the Barley Wine, but haven't tried it yet.

    What beer did you drink today?

    I drank one on Friday watching my Jayhawk lose a heartbreaker. Great aroma, the flavor was nice too. I'd recommend it, if you're a fan of pumpkin brews. Here was my review: 22oz bomber served in a chalice. Copper colored pour with a quickly dissipating head. Fantastic aroma of pumpkin pie...
