Just picked these up the other day. They all looked good... I dont know yet, but will soon... I have never had any of these, my first experience with all of the brands. I have heard so much on different forums about sierra nevada, that i bought a bunch of different sierra nevada beers...

I have had three of those Sierra Nevada's and they are great beers. The summerfest this year is really good imo, and the Hefe is my favorite American hefe. You can't go wrong with the Pale Ale either. Enjoy them

That Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is awesome! It goes really good with a RP Edge cigar.

How is the dunkel then?

The dunkel is FANTASTIC. I had a bottle of the dunkel in my hands nearly everyday in my four months in Germany! It was by far my favorite beer I tried while there! If you can find the dunkel in stores, give it a shot.

Skywalker ought to come 'round here in a bit and fill you in--Darrell lives in Chico and gets all the fresh stuff as soon as it's brewed, lucky dog

All four of those are tasty, the SN Pale Ale and Torpedo (if you can find it in your area) are my go-to IPAs.

I'm drinking a 750ml bottle of Westmalle Tripel. Yum.

A member from another board sent my buddy home with a couple of tasty brews. First, Ginger Twin from Half Acre in Chicago a Indian-Style red ale ....very good with a tasty hop drinking quality. Second, Baume a rye stout that is quite nice with a great mouth feel. For the man and to those who know him, thanks LittleG.

I'll have to try the Ginger Twin. Half Acre's pale ale was good, and I love Green Flash's Hop Head Red, so it's be nice to try Half Acre's. I have a feeling that Half Acre will be my favorite Chicago brewery. Not a huge fan of Goose Island.

Harpoon Summer Sampler pack. The best one is the Crystal Wheat with a touch of Lemon.

I am by no means a wheat beer fan but this stuff is awesome

Jealous. I haven't had GUmballhead in a while. I wish they would give our distributor some! Just recently had Devil Dancer, awesome.

I am drinking my own Foreign Extra Stout which is amazing. Too bad I can't email beer.

So half acre Ginger twin was pretty darn good. Judging from the reviews, mine must have been fresh because the hops were definitely present.

Having a daisy cutter pale ale now. I probably should have had it first because the hops are being overpowered by the Ginger twin.
