And the chick forgot to ring shit up so we got about $80 of beer retail for $40.
Amazing. Only you could fall into a situation with the most inept cashier on the eastern seaboard. Cheers kid.

Sorachi Ace is an awesome beer. Up until I bought that bottle of Faithful Ale, I am pretty sure the bottle of Sorachi was the most expensive bottle of beer I had ever bought. And based on the cost of those two beers after having the faithful I wished I had bought another bottle of Sorachi Ace instead.

I actually hadn't heard of this until I saw it on the shelf. Sounds good. I will probably save it for a month or so until the spring.
I doubt many of you have access, but the Central Waters Illumination is great. I'm normally not a big fan of theirs, but their specialty 4 packs are usually primo brew.

Have we had this face off yet?
Hellhound, Bitches Brew, Faithfull Ale
I've had Faithfull Ale and it was underwhelming. Wasn't really a fan of Hellhound either. However, I did get a bottle of Bitches Brew the other day and waiting to open.
How would you guys rank em?

I have in my possession two bottles each of Stone Arrogant Bastard, Double Bastard and the Vertical Epic 11-11-11. Now just to decide on which one to try tonight....
All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

Anyone hear that DFH Pangea is being retired? The kid at my local store looked it up today on his iphone and it said it was being retired. So I picked up the second to last bottle just in case. Other notable acquisitions today for youngster:
DFH Fort
DFH Hellhound
DFH World Wide Stout (x2)
Weinstephaner
Gonna be one hell of a homecoming in a few weeks youngster. We're gonna get wrecked.

I will. It was described to me today as a "madman". At 18% ABV it should be one to remember......or forget depending on how much I have.
went with the arrogant bastard last night....that is some damn good stuff there.
I figure I'll have the double bastard tonight to start and then the Vertical Epic on Saturday. Save the other 3 bottles as long as I can hold out....which usually doesn't work so well when I like something
All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

Brookly Brewery is probably one of my favourite US breweries. They don't do the really crazy out there stuff like DFH does, but pretty much everything I have had of theirs has been excellent. The Brooklyn Pennant ale is a great beer, and the Sorachi ace I had was awesome. Even Brooklyn Lager is a perfect example of how to make that style of beer great. I really which that PJ had given Brooklyn the chance to make Faithful ale since it could have been awesome.
Speaking of faithful I was thinking about something. Unibroue out of quebec makes a beer called Éphémère Cassis which is basically a straight up black currant beer with tons of currant flavour. I wonder if I mixed a bottle of Duvel with a bit of Éphémère Cassis, could I get it to taste like Faithful ale? Because I really thought that faithful tasted like Duvel with a hint of black currant. Unfortunatly I don't really feel like chasing down another bottle of faithful and spending 15 bucks to find out.

I didn't care too much for Hellhound as I didn't care for the overpowering lemon aroma. Faithfull was an average beer, at best, in my opinion. I've heard really good things about Bitches Brew, but I haven't tried it yet. I've had a bottle since it was originally released in 2010, but haven't gotten around to drinking it yet. To compare, here are the ratings of all 3 on BeerAdvocate and RateBeer:
I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

anyone try the new Sam Adams Alpine Spring yet?
i saw it at the store last night but didn't get it.. wondering if it's any good
It's nothing super exceptional or anything like that....to me....but I've had it several times now and I do enjoy it. Good one to sit around and have several

:thumbup: A very welcome mistake.
Yeah, I'm looking forward to it. Sounds good.
