I loved what Sam had to say.
I'm looking forward to a new treat this weekend...my store (the one 45 minutes away as some of you might recall) is supposed to have growler fills of Lazy Magnolia's Jefferson County Stout brewed with sweet potatoes. It may suck but it'll damn sure be different.
I have had their rebelion pale and the southern pecan brown and been mildy disapointed in both. The Reb pale was not bad to my taste but i've had other varieties of the same style i would go to long before this.
The Pecan was disapointing it was fruity to me not what i was expecting.
I have seen the stout but have shied away based on my first two. Let me know if you like it and don't let my expeirence with the other two be an indicator. Our taste buds are all different
I know what you mean. I have the Southern Pecan often nowadays and it seems to be better sometimes than others. I really like the Reb Ale, but, as you said, it isn't anything that really distinguishes itself from the crowd.
I support Lazy Magnolia as much as possible just because they're from here and i wish more breweries would start popping up. I'm not sure what to expect of the Jefferson County but I've read a few favorable reviews so we'll see. I'll try to remember to share my thoughts on it
All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

Hopslam was just released this week. It should be distributed for the next couple of months.
Also picked up the new Sierra Nevada Ruthless Rye IPA, very tasty!!! I love rye beers and whiskey for that matter.

Here are a few of my options for this evening. The top shelf of my beer fridge is dominated by 750ml and 22 oz bottles. The second shelf is high alcohol stuff and local favorites. The lower shelves and doors (unseen) are used mostly for daily drinkers and seasonals.
I may swing by Total Wine to see if they have any SN Ruthless Rye in stock yet.

I hear ya on supporting the locals. Sweetwater and Terrapin are the big ones in GA and i try to support them but their stuff isn't always top notch. A lot of their side projects and dank tanks can be fun though.
GA has seen a few more popping up over the years with Red Brick, Ode to Mercy, Jailhouse, and Red Hare all making on the scene

I chose the wrong time to take a couple weeks off from drinking to shed a few lbs. I have an excellent selection at home I want to dive into.
I hear you, too many good beers out now.
@capthowdy1027..... Hopslam is usually released in January and is only around for a couple of months. Drink it fresh!!!

Anybody heard of this or use it? I just got an invite code this week...the legalities of shipping beer confuse me so I'm not really sure if I can or can't legally participate but it would be a good way to obtain beers I normally couldn't
EDIT: Well I figured out that they cannot ship to me, which is what I figured.

Haven't tried it yet. I hear the aroma is amazing, but the flavor is underwhelming.

I thought of maybe trying to start a little club on here so we could ship each other brews not available in our areas. I don't know how often I could afford the expense of shipping and all but it would be fun once a month or every couple of months.

I was reading an article in BeerAdvocate saying that there is a law tabled in congress to start allowing USPS to ship alcohol, but still a lot of red tape behind it. However, the same article also said that UPS and FedEx do allow it, so maybe that's a better option....
Southern Tier Choklat!!!! Holy amazing beer,might be the best Choc stout yet!!!!1
If you like a Chocolaty Stout, I highly recommend Jester King's Black Metal.... pretty alcoholic at 10.5 abv, but a very tastey chocolate stout for sure... best I've had in a long time...
Last night's consumption consisted of a 22 oz bomber of Clown Shoes Belgan IPA called Tramp Stamp, followed by a few Windmere Bros winter warmers, called simply Brrrrr!
both were pretty good, the Brrrr! I would highly recommend trying if you have access... very hoppy for a warmer, if you're a hop head you'll like it....
Houston, Texas... Believe it or not, there are 7 million people here... must be a couple of fans who'd love to see you play.

Most expensive bottle of beer I have ever been privy to experience. $29.00 clams. I couldn't pull the trigger.
I did find it at a grocery store on my way home for $12.00 and grabbed one up though.
Cigar City Jose Marti Porter. Good shit.
