So who has tried Flying Dogs Dead rise ?

Got into a Miles Davis ****es Brew tonight, easily one of the best Stouts I've ever tried outside of Bourbon County.

So who has tried Weyerbacher Insanity or Weyerbacher Blasphemy?

Insanity is a barley wine style ale aged in barrels and Blasphemy is a Quad that is aged in bourbon barrels , both are great winter sipping beers. I highly recommend checking one or both of them out.

Having a beer tasting with some neighbors tonight, I'm bringing He-Brew Jewbilation 17 (Brwed with 17 malts, 17 hops and 17% abv) and Omnipollo Fatamorgana Imperial IPA which is suppose to be spectacular. 

Not a fan of the majority of Sam Adams brews, however, I tried the Rebel IPA tonight on draft and thought it was very good.  It's not over hopped and IMO very balanced, check it out.

Has anyone tried any He-Brews?

He-Brew Bittersweet Rye Imperial IPA is delicous.

Try Pete's Wicked Winter Ale for a good Christmas Brew.

For my birthday my wife got me 6 packs of these:

Hoppy birthday to me.

The [img /img coding wasn't working for me :-https://attachment.fbsbx.com/file_download.php?id=472860599501617&eid=AStst3DT0dtBAgB5bVNzpmFSPg33SGTpVYgBXsWGnpQAqqW6LAw2P2X5K7cTbZj-I4M&ext=1387219851&hash=AStZzW_qVyMjl3a_/

The Escondonian Black IpA was one of my favorite black IPAs , are you sure it's the Escondonian black?

I like it. It's a good, but not great, sour.  I usually prefer more of a sourness in a beer like that, but hey, different strokes. We even get it in our local grocery store which is awesome.  

 

Speaking of sours, I had an amazing one the other night in Hill Farmstead's Phenomenology of Spirit.  Dark and roast with a fruity cherry aroma and significant tartness.  Incredibly good.

 

 

Man, I love sours, Tart of Darkness on tap was one of my favorites, La Folie by New Belgium is super yummy also.

I don't know about him, but you can usually get Pliney and a few other Russian River beers at Monk's Cafe in Philly. GREAT beer bar.

Mmm Monks Cafe Flemish Sour, has anyone tried it?

Don't do light anything. Here's my short-list:

 Pliny the Elder/Red River Brewing Co.

Heineken Extra Cold Draught & Pliny the Elder are my 2 absolute favorites though.

So where do you live ?  And how often do you get your hands on Pliny the Elder?

Congrats HBBLADES!!

So who has tried Stones Double **** American Strong Ale?

What did you think of it? ( I've had it before and picked up another bottle last night)

Had a 2 yeaf old bottle of Sam Adams Octoberfest last night. It definitely got worse with age. Do not recommend. I've aged Marzens in the past and they turned out real good. The Sam Adams was plasticy, lost its caramel and spice. Pretty bland, fresh was way more enjoyable.

Dude you age some odd beers, from what I have read, you shouldn't cellar anything less than 8% abv especially a beer like an IPA.

had my first pumpkin beer (Blue Moon) ,not bad, I will have to try some of the other like Pumpking

Good luck finding Pumking, that stuff sold out a month ago.   I actually rank Schlafly Pumpkin ale right up there with Pumking, had a Greater Pumpkin brewed by heavy seas, which is a Bourbon Barrel aged Pumpkin ale and thought it was awesome.

Anyone tried Sierra Nevada's new season Flipside red IPA?  Delicious.  

Yes indeed, Sierra Nevada knows whats up, if you like the simcoe hop, you will love this beer. Delicious!!!!  

Anderson Valley makes some great beers, their Summer Solstice is really good, I also like their IPA.

The Southern Tier Choklat is one of my favorite beers. That entire line of Imperial beers they have is incredible. Choklat, Creme Burlee, Oat Stout, Pumking, Un*Earthly...all A+ beers to me.

Chocklat was okay for me, I would have enjoyed it more if I shared it with someone, 22oz's more than i needed.

For those of you with a sweet tooth, check out Southern Tier Creme Brulee, I didn't care for Choklat at all, but Creme Brulee was straight delicious, it's limited release and won't be around long. 

Having some of the stone enjoy by ipa. ****ing fantastic

What is the latest "enjoy by" from Stone?

Check out this Skins tee from Flying Dog, I want one.

She's been there since 6:30 in the morning. I'm just wondering if anyone on this board knows her.

Obviously a Cowturd fan.

Leroy Jenkins never gets old.

Pumpking is already on the shelves, I hate the fact they release fall beers so early.

Had my 4 year old Flying Dog Raging ****. Absolutely incredible. I don't even want it fresh anymore, gotta age a 6 pack now. My DFH Midas Touch turns 4 in a few weeks.

A new version of The **** comes out tomorrow, i'm assuming it is Oaked or Bourbon Barreled, just my guess.

I love me some Black IPA's, I've tried Daddys Little Helper and thought it was really good, my favorite black IPA is/was Stones Escondonian Black IPA. I've heard good things about RJ Rockers Black IPA.
