Uinta Detour DIPA
Pliny the Elder

[eldondo]

Seth... I wouldn't describe it as smoky... some decent hints of smoke, yes... but not dominated. But the old Macallans were definetly stored in ex-Sherry Casks and that's the main flavor you get... dried fruits... very creamy... and very intensive notes of roasted malt... not sure if this is the influence of the cask or a general characteristic of this beer...

[landhoney]

[Jbailey]

Milwaukee Brewing Godzilla
New Glarus ABT
Hinterland Maple Bock
La Trappe Quad

[NCRadioMan]

Avery's The Czar Imp. Stout. Not bad.

[Zeuceone]

Pretty good but was a bid warmer than I like.

http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b209/zeuceone/1305781239.jpg

[ODLS1]

Had a half carbed sample pull from my Monolith RIS, 16.3%. Soooo good. Once carbed I will be bottling from the keg. This yeast is a beast though, I'm sure it wouldn't have had a problem naturally carbonating in the bottle.

Then my Saison Noire. Pretty good, needs tweaking to be great though. My first attempt. Needs a little more spiciness and a little less sweetness and body. Will be using French Saison yeast and a little peppercorn next time.

[awsmith4]

Last night I had

Duck Rabbit Rabid Duck
Wild Heaven Ode To Mercy

I enjoyed both tremendously

[hammondc]

Picked up some Avery Maharaja. Some of my favorite stuff. For some reason, I had a tough time finding it this year.

Also picked up the Summer Seasonal From Spoetzel: Shiner Red Ruby. Very good stuff. Pale lager with grapefruit and ginger. GREAT refreshing beer.

[St. Lou Stu]

Schlafly's seasonal AIPA.
I've had it on tap the last couple weeks, but tonight I go for the bottle.
Albert knows what I'm talkin about... a VERY solid AIPA.

At dinner I had Hitachino XH. It was a strong ale aged in Sake casks. Different but very tasty. Now I am sipping on '10 KBS

[cobra03]

Southern Tier Raspberry Wheat

[OLS]

Tonight I finally popped my bomber of Arrogant bastard ale. IT IS strong, but I think I expected something
different when it was described as strong. It's still just beer after all. I like to describe it as I do with strong
cigars, like music turned up too high. Had me buzzin like a mole rat. Had half a Chimay "white"...beige?
then had a Hop Wallop to wrap up the evening. Wicked night of beer. This afternoon I picked up a 4-pack of
Ommegang, a six pack of Dogfish Indian Brown ale, and a Sierra Southern Hemisphere Harvest. Crazy day
of beer buying and drinking.

What did you think of it? I also tried the Arrogant Bastard and the IPA and Levitation was my favorite of the bunch.

Enjoying a Surly Bitter Brewer this evening, Surly's summer seasonal.

[awsmith4]

Backwoods Bastard and a Party Charlotte to celebrate passing the first part of my Real Estate exam. Now all I have left is the state exam.

[Jbailey]

Great way to celebrate Albert.

[awsmith4]

Great way to celebrate Albert.

I agree :chr

I had to pass the school exam before I was allowed to sit for the state exam, judging by others before me the hard part is past. I am going to study through the weekend and take the state exam hopefully next Tuesday. If I pass I see a slew of good beer being consumed.

[Jbailey]

Keeping my fingers crossed and will be thinking of you Albert.

Good luck Brother. Positive thoughts that you'll do just fine. :tu

[baddevildog82]

Try the Double Bastard and the Old Guardian Barley Wine Ale, but not in the same night unless you are looking to get your butt kicked! Both are stronger in flavor and Alcohol content.

For something different, try the Oaked Arrogant Bastard. Try them side by side and get a good idea of the difference a barrel can make.

[agctribefan]

sierra nevada kellerwies just came out for the summer. I love that stuff.

[kugie]

MayFlower IPA , Pale Ale, Spring Hop (Sold out Haven't been able to find it anywhere)

Was hoping you'd like it! I think if I double the dry-hop on the next batch, I'm right in the zone. No doubt the yeast definitely makes a difference.

[jjirons69]

Heading out to get another growler of Hairy Eyeball. It served me well last Friday night.

:tu I agree. I've done 2 and 3 in a row with the 120 minute IPA and I feel you lose a lot of the taste after the first, too much ABV. I've never wasted them like that again, it was just so good I wanted more :D

[Zeuceone]

New Belgium Gran Cru Abbey Ale. Decided to try this out as they had a 1 per customer sign.

[cricky101]

Home brew blonde rye ale

[Killian]

Had a Southern Tier Hop Sun Saturday night at the International Tap House in Soulard after watching Albert take out the Cubs. I must say....this probaby went to the top of my summer beer list. Excellent stuff.

[Mikes]

1/6th of a AHB clone of Bells 2 hearted ale floated on Saturday. So a 1/6 of a Dunklewise went in to its place. Production 1/6th of Widmer's Citra Blonde is on order and will be on tap #2 later today or tomorrow ;o)

Can I still post here if I DID NOT enjoy the beer? I had one of my Abita Jockamo IPAs and
basically forgot I am not a fan of IPAs. But I REALLY am not a fan of this beer. The finish
is horrific. Just awful in the aftertaste area. 5 more to go, lol. Well awful is a strong word.
I didn't like nearly any aspect of this beer.

[IBQTEE1]

It is hot as **** here in NJ, but the past two nights I have has Ten Fidy... awesome in any weather :)

I agree. Good stuff.

[Rock Star]

I don't know if I am over reacting or not, but honestly, this beer might be an all time favorite daily drinker...I love the huge malt backbone underneath the complexity of the hops...what a blend!

Birra Del Borgo Reale artisanal italian ipa at Eataly in NYC.

[massphatness]

There's a brew pub in the town I work called John Harvard's -- very small chain: 6 locations in the Northeast. Brew and sell only their own beers. I was in the other night and had something called a Belgian Tripel. Sugary sweet and a 9% alcohol content. Yummy and buzzy all at the same time.

[OLS]

BitBurger German Pilsner

WHEW, used to basically bathe in Bitburger back in my extended TDY in Germany back in the early 80s.
Not sure how it stacks up against the beers of today, but of course the really good ones are crazy
expensive. Drank that and BBK, as we called Bad Beer from Kaiserslautern.

[Skywalker]

Leffe Blonde!:dr

[newcigarz]

Stillwater Ourside Saison

[OLS]

I tried to guugle bitburger, and now I realize since there is no Bitburger Kaiser Pils. But now that I think of it, I bet it
was actually Bischoff Kaiser Pils. I think I remember it was only OK. I was spoiled for choice over there, though.

Had my first Golden MOnkey last night, very different in a good way.

[mosesbotbol]

Really having a grand old time with this. 5L ($21 USD) and is fresh to the last drop. It lasts a month and is perfect size in the fridge. If you are doing a picnic, this is much less refuse and is very little upcharge from the same volume in glass.

Haven't post much lately but enjoying a 750ml of Boon Oude Geuze Mariage Parfait right now.

Had some this weekend, Brad. I really liked them. Good flavor for a 9% and a beautiful color. Love those Belgium-style Tripels.

Having a couple Victory Storm King Imperial Stouts tonight. Very, very dark; creamy; sharp, bitter, hoppy finish. I like 'em.

[Salvelinus]

If you like the golden monkey get yourself a Fin du Monde.

I'd heard it was good before. Saw they had it, and needed to try it. DAMN...I need MORE! :D

Never thought this time would get here. TBC Imperial Red, sooo good!

Yep. DAMN good stuff. Cannot get it here in Texas, but I will be having some next week when I go home to SC for the 4th.

I am having a Real Ale Lost Gold IPA. I stand firm that this is their best brew to date.

Another sample of my Monolith RIS, 16.3%. Dark Lord ain't got **** on this! Seriously, it's amazing - and I did not expect it to be this good (I feel like I've said this before here, but oh well). Bottling it up in about a week finally. I wish I had enough to share with everyone. I said I was only going to brew it once a year... I'm not sure about that now. I need to pair this with Camacho Triple Maduro (still never had it, but it seems fitting...).
