I’m drinking a local hazy IPA and I’m enjoying it. Suck it.

Revolution is awesome. And if you’re into barrel-aged beers, they have one of the best barrel-aging programs in the country. Way better than Goose Island and the Bourbon County hype.Self wrote:I had seen this around, but never tried it.

Can't say I've seen it. Diageo is based in CT but that doesn't mean a whole lot in regard to distribution I suppose. A full-bodied red with a creamy head sounds like something I would like to try.Ello Sailor wrote:Thoughts on Kilkenny?

Goose Island can also go fuck themselves. As far as breweries with a large footprint, Firestone Walker has the finest barrel program in my opinion and it really isn't close.

Re: You Will Drink Good BEER ... And It Will Be Delicious!
I brought home some beers from my trip to Ohio, and so far I've been disappointed.
A rye brown from Sophisticated Hound in Princeton, West Virginia, and a Cocoa/Coconut Stout from Ignite in Barberton, Ohio both seem very bland to me. Of course, I had a barrel aged Russian stout at Ignite, and that was quite exciting.

Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Anti-Hero is really good. Not a huge selection around here, but I'll keep my eye for those.Chris_H_2 wrote:Revolution is awesome.

Just poured a Cantillon Kriek as I am not used to not working Friday nights and I really have to start getting through some bottles from the cellar. Younger bottle with the fruit front and center. While I do prefer a bit more complexity, which would come over time, it is still an absolutely marvelous beer.
