    Revolution Fist City is my new favorite. Not sure how much it's available outside of Chicago, but check it out if you get a chance. A perfect pale ale that isn't overly hoppy and 5.5% so it won't get you drunk too quick.

    Had a few Leinenkugel summer shandy's on the golf course on Saturday....nothing like golf and summer shandy.

    love fist city!
    have you tried their Rosa beer? A+
    Yeah, Rosa is pretty solid. A nice and refreshing summer beer. My wife loves it. Gotta support the local businesses! I used to live about a mile from Half Acre and was a regular over there getting growler fills....not as many brewery options in the burbs.

    Dogfish 120 for $4.25 a bottle! I've never seen under $8.
    Those were tasters not a whole bottle.

    The deep fried ravioli was delicious.

    that's what I thought, too.

    on closer examination, those were all TSTR...tasters, probably 3 oz.

    All tasters except the four glasses of Pliny.

    First time I had heard of Knee Deep that night. Picked these up a couple of days later. A single, a double and a triple.image

    Jai Alai is awesome. I drank a ton of that when I was in Florida for a week last year. Unfortunately, can't get Cigar City in Illinois.

    Bought that and DF Romantic Chemistry IPA yesterday. Didn't try it yet. The Chemistry beer was pretty tasty.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    Someone tell me more about this Romantic Chemistry IPA. Seems like mango/apricot IPA's are getting a bigger push this year. I've had a couple kinds of them so far and they were all delicious.

    Speaking of delicious, but you probably wouldn't think it, this was damn good - if you're a fan of Old Bay, of course. Not even close to as gross you may think it may be.

    I was with some people who had an apricot IPA last week and they hated it. I didn't try it.

    Hmmmmm. Hopefully Pennsport Beer Boutique has this on my way home today.

    I found the Mango ones better. Can't for the life of me remember who they were from now - I got a mixed bag from Bottle Shop and they were all pretty good. I'm a fan of the floral, citric hops and they seem to work well. If you don't like that stuff then I can see why someone wouldn't like it.

    That Dead Rise wasn't a matter of "Oh, I can have one or two", I found it definitely drinkable for 6+-ish. Then again, I have a problem...

    Love this beer. Picked up a 15 pack, yes 15 pack for some reason, of this a couple weeks ago.
