What Beer are you drinking?

[mobius387]

Figured I'd start a spin-off thread of the craft beer thread. Post your pictures of what beer you are drinking!

I got a call today saying I didn't have to go into the clinic, and that means I'm done for the Holiday!!

So I cracked open a Lagunitas Sucks Holiday Ale. It's 5 o'clock somewhere, haha

Looks like I didn't miss too much while I was on the road.

While I was out I had:
Stag
Miller
Bud Light
Boulevard's Bourbon Barrel Quad (BBQ)
Schlafly's Bourbon Barrel Quad (got one by trading a CBS)
Founder's Centenial IPA
Sam Adams Alpine Spring
Boulevard's Unfiltered Wheat
New Belgium's Dig
Deschutes Red Chair North West Pale Ale
Bell's Hopslam
Schlafly's Yakima Wheat

...and I brewed again for the first time since November. I'm brewing a clone of Deschutes' Red Chair.

Very cool -- I've been drinking bourbon for about 6 months, myself.

So far, my favorites are Buffalo Trace and Woodford's Reserve. My two favorite cheap-o brands are Evan Williams and Old Grand Dad 86... I can get EW for $14.50 a handle, and OGD is about $16.50.

For the two cheapies... I think I prefer EW in an old fashioned, but OGD wins as a sipping/neat whiskey (maybe because OGD is more 'dry' so it doesn't carry as much in an Old Fashioned... don't have enough experience with it to be sure though).

One thing is for sure, no matter what you like... its a fun hobby. Lots of brands to try out.


Let us know what you think of the Angels Envy... I haven't had that one yet.

Lots of Hopslam this weekend. Still got a few six packs left, but I'll probably save a few for a special occassion.

Hey Wreck --- down at our very own Total Wine, you can get the Epic Vertical bomber-sized in the craft beer solo bottle section.... same idea. I had it a couple of weeks ago, very good stuff.

I wouldn't sit on too much for too long. The hop character will fade over time.

Angels envy is really good. Lots of vanilla notes and you even get some aroma and taste from the port barrels. Very easy to drink. Love it.
Tonight I'm drinking a new Kuhnhenn mead. Maple cream sherry pyment. Really tasty. Only 48 bottles made.

Cheers!
