  • I just spent the last 20 mins reading the "Faithfull Ale...I just dont get it" thread on the Porch and realized why I never go over there anymore.

    edit: no love for the SN Celebration Cliffy? I recommend that by the case.

    edit2: I'll be drinking the final SN Bigfoot of 2011 tonight. Sad face.

  • Made another run to the store down the road Friday morning since I had the day off.

    This time I got....
    Rogue Mocha Porter
    Sierra Nevada Stout
    Bayou Teche LA 31 (dark roasted)
    Atlanta Brewing Laughing Skull

    All tasty selections me thought

    Then on Saturday, thanks to the neverending kindness of a wonderful lady (and her husband) on the board, I received two bottles on Faithfull Ale...knocked the first one out that night and am going to TRY to hold onto the other for a special occasion. That is unlikely..i figure it won't make it past this weekend's obligatory boozing :lol:
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

  • Short set tonight. More of an EP of beers if you will.

    Troegs Mad Elf Ale
    Leinie Creamy Dark
    Anchor Our Special Ale

  • One I've picked up on recently and now is available locally is Tommyknocker Maple Nut Brown....nice bit of a maple syrup finish...i like it

    Also recently got the Covington Brewhouse (Louisiana) Strawberry Ale...which was nowhere near as bad as I thought it would be but still nothing i would go looking for. Didn't have the wine-coolery strawberry punch i feared, but more of a faint strawberry taste akin to the frozen strawberries granny also had. It was something different for sure

  • I enjoyed the Rogue Mocha Porter a lot.
    Had the Anchor Porter a couple weeks ago and it was even better me thought

    Squall is great. Really want to get my hands on another bottle.
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.
  • Haven't tried DFH Squall but after tasting it on tap last week, I gotta get my hands on a 4pack of DFH Palo Santo Marron at some point. Powerful stuff.

    I also have 2 bottles of DFH Olde School Barleywine saved for Christmastime.

    No doubt...sneakily packs a wallop. Just picked up another four-pack last week along with Boulevard Dark Truth stout.

    I'm a big fan of almost everything Dogfish Head puts out. We finally have a bar, World of Beer, in town that serves craft beer and they're hosting a Dogfish Head night in a couple weeks. According to the GM, they're going to have around 10 different Dogfish beers on tap and he's been told by his rep that one of them will be DFH 120.
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

    I know this is the one time of the year I have a chance to get it and Olde School. Those are the only 2 DFH I can think of that I have never tried (not including Brewery exclusives).

    I'm planning on picking up some Olde School as well. Never had Immort, in fact I don't think I've ever seen it.
