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
Fort....quite possibly the most potent beer I've ever had...enjoy sir!
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.
Madman it is!! But it's INSANELY sweet, so it's a sipper for sure.

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
I agree..they had a free "sampling" of that when I hit the beer store last week..it was ok..but I still left the place with a boxful of DFH and no Sam Adams...

Yea, I saw that on BA the other day... was sorely disappointed... I've got 2 bottles on stash, but I was hoping it would come around again cause I really did like it. Never know though, some more might show up down here, as DFH seasonals and limited editions often turn up here much later than everywhere else.
Was at the beer store today and picked up a 4-pack of Aprihop from DFH, and a bomber of The Reverend from Avery (it's a quad)... haven't had either before...
Tonight I think I will either be trying Jester King's Thrash Metal or The Immort-ale in the fridge (that I am still yet to try... :oops: ) Somehow life just keeps getting in the way of the 12% beer...
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.
I am off on an epic quest to taste the best the uk has to offer. On to the land of room temperature beer and raised pints. Can't wait.

Not that great, IMO. I preferred Noble Pils. I know they now bottle Noble Pils year-round, I just preferred to have it on draft occasionally.
I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

Started a little local beer club. We're calling it the Sunday Syndicate. Last week was our first meeting the 6 of us tried 9 different beers. Good times.

Yet another Stone to recommend:
Vertical Epic 11.11.11
WOW
Even though I've imbibed a few months (9) earlier than designed, this is a tremendously amazing brew - the Anaheim Pepper finish makes a chile verde/taco/nacho/jalapeno eve that much more enjoyable!
YUM
I agree - I think 11.11.11 is outstanding. Having purchased two of each bottle through the years - one to save, one to drink immediately - I've enjoyed experiencing all of the various flavors Stone has put into these brews. The only one I haven't been able to try (yet) is 02.02.02. Only got one bottle of that, and after holding onto it for the past decade, it's hard to believe I'll finally be able to pop the cap this year.
Forgot when I was picking up beers last night had a DFH 90 Min IPA through the Randallizer. Tasty!
Now there's one I'm wanting to try.
I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

We just had the '11 tonight. Minutes ago. It was damn good. Loved the mild burn in the throat.
All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow
They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all
I tried Red Brick's Hoplanta which actually wasn't a bad ipa. One i could see myself drinking a few of and not getting tired of them. Its not overpowering. I was surprised Red Brick usually is "just okay" to my taste buds.
Also checked out Deviant Dales IPA. Reminded me a little of Sierra Nevada's newest Ruthless Rye. A little spicy good stuff though

Abita strawberry just started hitting the shelves...I usually dislike fruit-flavored beer but one or two of these can really hit the spot sometimes. Just picked up some Cigar City Jai Alai too
That's great news. I remember a buddy's dad telling me that years ago he had to buy warm beer in MS. Not sure it was a county regulation...
Thanks...that is exceptional news actually.
And who knows about the warm beer thing because the laws here have been (and I'm sure will continue to be to a lesser degree) screwed up. In college in starkville they couldn't sell cold beer. I'm guessing that's just a county thing. Here..we have cold beer sales but you can't sell singles and you can't sell it in restaurants.
I just hope the new governor doesn't make me regret voting for him now

Have a good trip brother and we'll raise a few pints when you return.
