Anything and everything BEER

Reading both of you "experienced" men lend advice in this area turns my stomach a bit.

 

Have some of the pale ale, it will calm your tummy down.

Well start with some nice pale ales and work your way up. Going from PBR to double anything is going to be too strong. It is an aquired taste.

Was back home in Kalamazoo for the 4th of July. Bells has really stepped up the brewery & bar downtown. Notice the Habanero Oberon!!

Bells is top notch IMO.

MY GF had the same response, so I turned her on to Saisons and Witts. Now she loves them

Is cider gaining in popularity in the U.S. as it is up here? It's probably the fastest growing product in our liquor stores...

Not in Socal. It had its time about 5-6 years ago.

Aye, Cali is in the midst of the great craft beer renaissance. I can't walk out my front door without tripping over four or five brewmasters trying to steal my doormat to make the next great Sneaker Stout.

St Archer IPA is a good one

I just had the St Archer Blond Sunday night, I enjoyed it quite a bit, seems like a good brewery.

I am on a Green Flash kick at the moment. It's my brewery du jour.

 

Currently imbibing (literally, at the moment):

I bought them at room temperature at Total Wine (greatest store ever). The first one I allowed to get too cold in the freezer. The second was cool and a better temperature.

 

This pours pitch black, like motor oil black. You can definitely taste chocolate, malt, coffee. It's fairly boozy at 8.8 ABV, so don't rifle them down like a Guinness or Murphy's.

 

Also have in the fridge:

I don't know if this is their "answer" to Russian River's Pliney the Younger, but it's their triple IPA.

Anyone use the app UNTAPPD (Untapped without the E)?

 

Keeps track of what beers you have had and where you had them. Pretty cool.

Had a shake chocolate porter yesterday. Fantastic!

I will have to check it out. Beer Advocate has a good app.

One of my favourites...they also have a non-nitro milk stout that is very good as well...

 

Arrogant Bastard finally made it over the border to Canada...not sure what I expected but it wasn't worth the wait...
