Anyone else guilty of this?
For instance, had a Malheur Brut Reserve at Philly 3 (of course I didn't want to bring my Scaldis Prestige nor crack open a Deus, I settled for the Malheur)
usually stock my cooler with some fine Belgian's as well.
Just wanna know who else is with me on this, and where are ya from?

Long Trail Ale. Or anything the fine people at Long Trail Brewery in Bridgewater Corners, Vermont brew, for that matter. Viva Long Trail!"FF, I've heard the droning about the Sawx being the baby dolls. Yeah, I get it, you guys invented baseball and suffered forever. I get it." -JearlPam09250

Sierra makes the BEST BEER out there. As a Canadian, I can only get Sierra when I am down in the US (usually on my PJ road trips), but I always stock up on the IPA when I am in the US. The Anniversary Ale, Celebration Ale and Porter are all amazing beers too. Still waiting to track down the stout though...Get_Right wrote:nothing but sierra nevada's in my cooler1996: Toronto 1998: Barrie 2000: Saratoga Springs 2003: Buffalo, Toronto 2005: Kitchener, London, Hamilton, Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto 2006: Toronto x2, Cleveland, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Gorge #1 2007: London, Dusseldorf, Vic, Lolla 2008: WPB, Tampa, DC, MSG x2, Hartford, Boston x2, Beacon 2009: Toronto, Chicago x2, Seattle x2, LA #3&4, San Diego, Philly x4 2010: Cleveland, Buffalo, Hartford 2011: Montreal, Toronto x2, Hamilton 2012: Missoula 2013: London, Wrigley, Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Hartford, Dallas, OKC0 -

I live in PA and I am a huge craft brew fan (Troegs, Lancaster Brewing Co., Magic Hat, Victory, etc.). Ommegang makes some very tasty Belgian brews. I suggest Rare Vos. Unfortunately they don't sell the Obamagang (which was fantastic) as it was only for a brew fest they had over the summer to which I got ridiculously tanked for.0

Sierra does make a very good IPA for a good price. You should also try Stone Brewing Co's IPA and Ruination IPA. They are really good.
As far as Belgium beers, I've been a huge fan of La Chouffe for quite some time.
They just starting shipping New Belgium beers to Atlanta, GA a few months ago. the Hoptoberfest was really good."I've got things to do and things to say in my own way..."0 -

I usually split a bottle of Tequila or Rum with a buddy... Mostly before Blackhawks / Bulls games Now if it's a soccer game, then it's Corona! A child's rhyme stuck in my head...
It said "Life is nothing but a dream."
I've spent so many years in question
To find I'd known this all along.0 -

I've only recently discovered the American microbrew scene (we have a few decent microbrews in Canada but inly 1 or 2 are really great) and I am so impressed with the quality of their beer.Guitarhero27 wrote:BeerBaron wrote:

As I said, Sierra is the shit. Aside from that, on a recent trip to the US I picked up some Harpoon Winter Warmer and some Shipyard Stout - both excellent! Also discovered a Vermont (I think) brewery named Wolaver's which makes excellent beer (organic, but that is not what made me try it) when I was in Philly in October, who make an excellent IPA, Brown Ale and Pale Ale.
I've heard that Bell's Brewery in Kalamzoo, MI makes some of the best beer around, but unfortunately they don't distribute anywhere in NY state, so I haven't got my hands on any of that either. I will be sure to pick some up before PJ's Detroit show in 2010

During PJ tailgates - especially Philly tailgates - it's mounds and mounds of unoriginal Miller Lite.0

Bells IS THE BEST!!! Of the Bells seasonals right now I prefer the Christmas Ale.
OP, the 2 BELOW seasonal from New Belgium is real tasty like.....0 -
