  • Had Sam Adams Cream Stout recently, which was something very new to me, and I enjoyed it quite a bit.

    It's so hard to get the good craft beers around here cuz Mizzip has fucked up laws with no sales of beers over 5% ABV...still you find some occasionally but it really limits what shows up...theres a group lobbying to change the laws but I don't think they're making much headway
    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'm pissed that Guinness actually put their name on that crap. It's like someone took my delicious Guinness, poured a third of it out, and topped it off with water. :sick:

    My favorite stout so far has been Shipyard's Blue Fin Stout. Pretty highly rated among the two websites.

    Anyone here try the Southern Tier Imperial PumKing? Everyone raves about this shit, so I picked up two of the big bottles this weekend and didn't enjoy it at all.

    tried this last night...phenomenal :clap: we went to dinner at this place called the craft house and they had tons of craft beers. good times.

  • Had some Shiner Blonde over the weekend....absolutely zero distinguishable taste....swill.
    It was almost to the point I thought I had a rotten pack but from what I've seen other people say about it it truly is that bad....which surprises me because I've liked the other shiners i've tried
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    Finally had a Dogfish Head 120 Minute at Birreria, the Eatly Beer Garden yesterday. Was awesome. Insane how a beer can be that strong and taste that great.
