Dead Elephant IPA after a few Canadians at my girlfriends pub this is a great IPA lol. I'm sure I'll think other wise when I crack a Mad Tom after this.

A couple bottles of Anchor Liberty Ale, followed by 2 wonderful bottles of Half Pints Black Galaxy - just a wonderful Cascadian IPA.

Last night while unpacking, verifying and sorting close to 1100 bottles of homebrew from across Canada:

Bushwakker Arctic Dark - pretty good dark larger, wouldn't go so far as to call it a classic munich dunkel, more like an american interpretation, but pretty tasty stuff

Guinness Special Export - absolutely killer, this could be my everyday drink

Bushwakker Brewpub has been stocking it for the last year or so. I have one just about every time I am there.

This is awesome/impressive, what were the sizes of the drinks?

Had a bunch of beer with JB84 and J343MY today, I don't remember what, J343MY said he'd keep track :) . Awesome day overall.

Mostly samples. We are still recovering from some serious damage last night at Gambrinus - (didn't have any, but they were selling 2 for 1 Westvleteren)

We also need to save our strength for Founders and the Hopcat tomorrow and Ashleys and Jolly Pumpkin on Sunday.
It has already been an awesome weekend!
Here's to crucifixion!!
