post beer not politics.


Hopslam!
It's bitter or something. Kind of wet. Tastes like beer. Women and Nickelback wouldn't like it. Minorities...sheeesh.

Well, this is RANDOM TALK, "talk about beer OR ANYTHING ELSE THAT COMES TO MIND."

I don't mind talking politics, but i can respect that some folks don't. I know the old saying is that one is not to supposed to talk about politics or religion while with friends or family, but those are almost the only two things I do talk about.
Unless you're a conservative........then I just don't talk with you at all. :wink:
If you`re reading this, there`s a 15% chance you`ve got a significant drinking problem. Get it fixed, get recovered!

Ithaca Alphalpha - if you're in Buffalo, get it. Read me review if you want more details, but suffice to say, take my word, and just get it. Ingenious!

Bridgeport Hop-Czar. Wonderfully bitter and quiet well balanced.

Deschutes Abyss 2010. I know it says best after 15th November 2011, but this is just so drinkable now.

I picked that up in Buffalo too and split the bottle with a friend. Damn tasty.

Tonight I had an Elliott Ness, which remains one of my all-time favourite lagers.

Damn, it really is. Also, just got a fresh batch of Southern Tier Backburner in locally and it also is very drinkable now.

Currently I'm sampling a Garrison Sugar Moon Maple.

Waiting for a bottle of Julebryg to warm up after being in the fridge. Then I'll open it. Then I'll drink it.

I had an Amsterdam Boneshaker at the Rhino last night and it was fantastic. Anyone know if they changed the recipe this year?

Victoria & Negra Modelo (Modelo) + Bohemia Obscura (Moctezuma)

I've only seen 2 breweries in Mexico thus far, and unfortunately these seem to be the best of the (very limited) options...
