adam42381 I really liked this year's wake n bake. I got it on tap and it was awesome. I hope it comes across as well in bottle. a great stout type beer
I've heard nothing but good things about Wake n Bake. I've never been truly wowed by anything Terrapin puts out, so I'm hoping this one lives up to the hype.
EDIT: I take that back, I liked Big Hoppy Monster a lot.I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.0 -
Grabbed the last bottle of DFH Fort at my place. They aren't making this in 2012, so I'm saving it I hope. 18% ABV.
The Sam Adams winter variety pack looks good too. You guys have any thoughts on Old Fezziwig Ale and Holiday Porter? Fezziwig has grown on me the last few years."FF, I've heard the droning about the Sawx being the baby dolls. Yeah, I get it, you guys invented baseball and suffered forever.

not sure if this has been posted yet, if you've not tried lagunitas sucks holiday ale, RUN to your beer store and grab a 6er or 2. off the hook pineapple, citrusy aroma w/a great malt backbone.
st arnolds' christmas ale is ok and SN celebration is as great as ever.
will be visiting jester king brewery on 12/31 and highly suggest wytchmaker rye if you get dist of JK.San Diego Sports Arena - Oct 25, 2000

One night at Cheers, Cliff Clavin explained the" Buffalo Theory" to his buddy Norm:
"Well, ya see, Norm, it's like this. A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members! ; In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine! That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers."All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

Stocked up for the next couple days with a case of Brooklyn Winter and I struck gold and found a case of Cigar City Jai Alai for only $32. Fuck yeah.0

Get after that Long Trail Triple Bag, Cliffy. Its amazing.
I had another bottle of 4 Calling Birds and a bunch of Lagunitas Sucks on Xmas. Followed it up last night with Ballast Point Sculpin IPA and Rogue Chocolate Stout and 2 Sam Old Fezziwig Ales. Its been a great weekend."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 -

Couldn't find the triple bag at the "general store" which is the only thing near the resort. Probably have better luck in Philly, haha. Drinking otter creek black ipa, not to shabby.0

Drinking a Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout. One of my favorite stouts for the price.I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.0

my sister gave 2 bottles of faithfull ale for christmas.... i drank one on christmas eve
not sure what to do with the other one :?
my cousin gave a me bottle of Fullers Old Winter Ale... it was good but not really my style0 -
had a bottle of pj faithfull ale on christmas, pretty crappy imo. almost embarrased for DFH but respect the purpose behind it. i guess my recommendation is to drink it ice cold after a killer workout and you'll get something reminiscent of a rolling rock.San Diego Sports Arena - Oct 25, 2000
