rincewind Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Has anyone tried the DFH 75 Minute IPA? It's a combo of the 60 and 90 put into firkins. Also - anyone try the Heavy Seas AARSH Imperial Red Ale yet? Had one last night, and I still love this brew despite its absence of hops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#98QBKiller Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Has anyone tried the DFH 75 Minute IPA? It's a combo of the 60 and 90 put into firkins. It's funny that you mention that. Last night I had dinner at the DFH Alehouse and started out with a 60 Minute, then switched up to the 75 minute. I liked it a lot. It had the smoothness and taste of the 60 minute, but slightly bolder, but not overbearing. I'm a big fan for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d0ublestr0ker0ll Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 (edited) Having a Raging ***** IPA tonight. I tell ya, after a while I get numb to the typical IPA, and I know this is Belgian-style, but it's delightfully unique.

Warpath11 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Had a tasting with some freinds tonight, the most interesting by far was the Monk's Café Flemish Sour Red Ale, wow, talk about different. Has anyone tried a flemish ale? Ive had it at Monks and it is very different, a good to style Belgian Sour Ale. They use a strain of yeast called Brettanomyces that produces that sour flavor during fermentation. I enjoy it the style I just cant have too much of it as the taste is a bit too much after a few of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d0ublestr0ker0ll Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 (edited) Smashed a couple Yuenglings and the last Raison D'Etre over the weekend. Tell ya what, I like that Yuengling lager. American lagers get a bad rap. I like corn and grains, so what? It's what defensive ends are made of. Pure American badassery. I want to start exploring Lagunitas beers, seems like they're high level across the board. Got me a bomber of the Old Gnarly Wine for tonight: Lagunitas Old Gnarly Wine Style: Barley Wine Alcohol content: 10.6% ABV IBU: 69.39 Limited Seasonal Release: Spring Appearance: Caramel with a rosewood hue, dark colors, yet somehow "bright" in the glass. Fluffy bronze head gives this beer a very serious look. A lot of lacing, but dissipates quickly, leaving almost no lasting trace. Aroma: Pungent aroma of flowers, sweet citrus and tropical fruits. Caramel backbone is strong on this, and it's not overdone. Could sit here and smell this brew forever, awesomely balanced. Flavor: Overwhelmed by the flavor. Again, incredibly balanced. Progression from malt to hops is insane. Tons of caramel malt hit right away, with a superb IPA-'esque citrus and flowery bitterness gaining intensity as the milliseconds roll by. Complete "180" through the tasting. Sweet, sweet, sweet. Body/Finish: Big body, oily. Carbonation is high, alcohol warmth is high. Finish is a lot of alcohol warmth with bitter hops and slight caramel. Summary/Grade: This is a very high quality beer with a modest price tag.

Warpath11 Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 had a Hop Henge IPA last weekend. it was so good. the color, smell, taste, high alc content. man it was just awesome all around. http://www.deschutesbrewery.com/brews/bond-street-series/hop-henge/default.aspx I love their stuff it is way hard to find here on the East coast but whenever I visit my brother (in Portland, Ore) I drink my weight in Black Butte Porter. That is by far and away my favorite porter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d0ublestr0ker0ll Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 (edited) Mmmmm Aprihop. The Aprihop was really good, I sipped it watching Bellator last night. Tonight is Nugget Nectar night and damn man, this beer is just amazing. If you love the 90 Minute IPA (which I do), you'll sub paul harris for this beer. She's a tasty number.

MattFancy Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Yeah I had one of those the other night and though it was pretty good. Do you know of any good liquor stores around the area that have a wide selection? I'm used to living in Towson where I had Wells Liquor Store right next to me, they had a HUGE selection.

They have the best selection in the area and you can make mixed 6 packs which is golden because you can try lots of new stuff without having to commit to a full 6-pack.
