The BEER thread.

AA is for quitters.

 

Yet another beer to keep an eye out for, Dogfish Head's Aprihop. Unfortunately you have to wait until late spring/early summer. It's lite, refreshing, and delicious.

 

Yes... yes it is.

 

Just thought you all should know...

P.S. I second the Aprihop.

 

Enjoy! I just got around to drinking the bottle I picked up last night... delicious

 

I don't think my bottle of Bitches Brew will survive this weekend.

 

Went to 2 bars tonight and had a few Golden Monkeys and BITCHES BREW ON TAP!!!!!

 

I had to swallow the trifecta of suck tonight: crappy luke warm $7.50 beer, Braves committing 3 errors, AND THE WORST MOTHER!@#!@$$%% CALL IN BASEBALL HISTORY!

Die in a fire sam holbrook!

 

I was in Richmond, VA for a few days for work and had the chance to visit Hardywood Park Craft Brewery. Their Single, Pumkin and Saison were pretty tasty.

Also went to the Capital Ale House and was amazed at their beer selection!

I think they said that have 300-400 beers. I would hate to be the one in charge of updating their menu!

 

I can find one or two beers on that list.

 

Noted.

I've liked a few of the Rogue offerings, but haven't loved any of them.

On another note one of my fall favorites Lagunitas' Brown Shugga hit the shelves this week.

 

Thanx for the pic and description of the "Bitches Brew"... If I would have checked this thread, before I went to Giant Eagle, this afternoon, I would have tried that one.
Was trying to find one of those Oatmeal, Coffee, Chocolate, type Stouts....Closest thing they had was sumkinda "Milk Stout" for about 11 bux for a 6 pak...(It was NOT the "Imperial" brand, that I wanna try)...
Figured if all else failed, I would get some of the Sam Adams Ocktoberfest, since I tried it at dinner recentley, and liked it...
They were completely sold out of it...
I also found something that was aged in old oak whiskey barrels, which I have been wanting to try, but, at 12 bux for a 4 pak, was a bit cost- prohibitive...
So... After debating between Newcastle Brown Ale, Or Honey Brown,(Which I just enjoyed a 6 pak of,last night, because I am getting really tired of drinking cheap, watered down beers, because they are affordable)... I settled on the ever-affordable, Michelob Amber Bock....
They did have Beck`s Dark, And St. Pauli Girl Dark... But, since the Michelob was 3 bucks cheaper per 12 pack...
I settled... Helluva lot better than the Bush Light I`ve gotten used to, but I really wanna try those "Imperial" stouts.
Guess I will have to go to the "fancy" beer store, in my neighborhood...
LOL...(Just thought Towel might get a kick outta the fact, that I am "slumming" with his old, cheap, favorite tonight )
GO STEELERS...

 

$12 for a 4-pack ain't bad. Think about the garbage you would get for $3 including tip at a bar.

 

I've seen it listed as both a barley wine and an American strong ale. It's tasty no matter what name they give.

 

Grabbed a new one yesterday for the game Port Brewing Company's Santa's Little Helper. It's a bourbon barrel aged Russian Imperial Stout and it's so much better than our Steelers are playing.
