What beer did you drink today?

[amateuraficionado]

Wow! Intense. I liked it but I don't think I could drink more than two in one night.

I think Storm King is one of the best if not the best 6 pack stouts out there. I love it, nice choice!

x2 ..... currently my "go to" beer.

I agree Jonas, my local has several cases in, I'm thinking about hosting a GB if he will let me buy 3-5 cases and give me a great price.

Yep, hopefully now that our ABV cap has gone up it'll start hitting the shelves here again.

Well it seems that Great Lake Brewing has some new stuff for me to try.

Today was a Glockenspiel Click Me

The Past weekend was Grassroots Ale Click Me

Sounds interesting. I'll have to see if they've made it into PA yet.

Had this yesterday. For a Stone beer I has expecting something more intense but I found it to be milder than I assumed. The smoked barley, while apparent, wasn't as strong as the Schlenkerla smoke beer that I've had and enjoyed. But nonetheless I liked this beer and wouldn't hesitate to have it again.

John Harvards did an off-season pumpkin spice, so in addition to the three pints I had at the restaurant, a friend and I polished off a growler. Damn good. I may stop there on the way home from work tomorrow on the off chance they still have.

Was down in Indy for the weekend and stopped in at Alcatraz Brewing Company downtown. I tried their Pelican Pale as well as the Bighouse Red. I though both were good, but the red was better. Their food was also a lot better than I was expecting as well.. so if you are downtown, give it a try. I don't think they bottle anything, but will fill growlers.

I had a Miller Lite last night after my softball game that we won 19-0. I know it was only Miller but it went down in a blink of an eye. Cold beer on a hot day.

Well over the weekend I had a Moretti La Rossa Birra Doppio Malto ... pretty tastey stuff.
Also had Deschutes Red Chair which I loved and a Gouden Carolus Carolus D'Or - Cuvée Van De Keizer, one of my favorites!

I finally got the nerve to crack one of my 3 Angel's Share (Brandy) bottles ... I had been keeping it in a harsh high 60-low 70 environment to hopefully give it some bubbles. Well I got some bubbles maybe 4 total with a slight head (like the one you get from flat soda ... the brew was tastey but unfortunately it was missing something, maybe carbonation! I can see this beer being exceptionally good if just had the bubbles to roll on the tongue and make it a bit smoother. This is a real disappoointment.

Is there a way to give it some carbonation?

Thanks for the update, Mike. That is definitely disappointing news, even more so is how Tomme and Co are still handling it. For 30 effin dollars it better be fantastic not flat as shhhhit.

I posted on BA and someone said Tomme was allowing you to swap the uncarbonated 750 bottles for 2 375 carbonated bottles. I may have to take a trip to find out.

I've seen some of their big bottles, but I've always passed. I don't think I've seen the dopplebock though. I really like their Bitch Creek ESB.

During the Laker game I had a bottle of Consecration Batch 01X02...man I could drink this stuff everyday if I could.

Jonas/Justin you need to get a keg of this stuff for your kegorator. I would be there every weekend!

 

[The Black Cloud]

Had another bottle of the Storm King. I liked it even more than the first bottle! :thumbs:

Mine's only set up for homebrew kegs, but I'll see what I can do.

<---- drinking more Carlo Rossi :barf:

I've been thoroughly impressed with BP. I've had the IPA and Amber. My local has them on special for $2.99 a bomber, so I got them.

Went with a couple of friends to a local brewery (75th St. Brewery) a couple of days ago and had their IPA and wheat beer. IPA was great, wheat not so much. Too bad they don't bottle the IPA....

Tonight I had some Bells Two Hearted Ale which was impressive and Boulevard Saison w/ Brett. The Saison was freakin' great; I haven't had many of the style, but it was pretty amazing imo.
