Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 

I was at Bar Louie last night talking to the bartender and he advised me they had that on deck waiting for a keg to kick so they could put it in. I tryed my damndest to help them kick one but had to leave before that happened.:td

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 

Is it any good!? :D

What does it taste like?

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 

The Life and Limb is great!

The first thing I noticed was a caramel flavor, balanced with smokey almost stout like notes, and a hint of maple on the finish!:dr

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 

mmmmm

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 

I swung by Boulevard's brewery Wednesday and had some great beers... most interesting was a test batch sample of what they called 'Hoppy Wheat'.
It was a Cascade dry hopped version of their Unfiltered Wheat. Good.

Also had:
Bully Porter
Tank 7
Double Wide IPA
Amber Ale
Zon


All decent, but the highlight was the Tank 7 and Hoppy Wheat.

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 

How was Bells Black Note Dave?

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 

It was amazing!!

I think it was Bells Double Cream Stout mixed with Bells Expedition Stout and bourbon barrel aged.

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 

Of all the porters I sampled from my latest beer haul "research" :tu, this was my favorite.

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 

I picked up a porter from Three Floyds last time I was there called Amon Amarth - Ragnarok. It's a porter coming in at 8.20% abv. From what I hear, it's a nice hoppy porter. I'll post my thoughts when I get around to popping it.

Re: What beers are you enjoying?

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 

Very nice tasting Tony! Sounds like a good time:tu How were the Jolly Pumpkin and the Epic Imperial Stout?

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 

They were both good. The sours were the big hit of the night though. Seth's, Bruery Sour in the Rye and the Cantillon.

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 

I'd be interested to know if Seth brewed with lactobacillus. Not many home brewers brew sours. That's awesome though.

The 05 Cantillon sounds amazing as well. Cantillon doesn't make one bad beer at all.

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 

It had lacto in it for sure, and pedio, and brett at the very least. I'll have to check my notes, but I use mixed cultures from whitelabs/wyeast as well as cultured bottle dregs from commercial sours. I think this particular beer was a mix of both.

I brew a lot of wild/sour beers, this one was a Belgian Quad, bourbon barrel aged with cherries.

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 

:O A Belgian Quad aged in BB with cherries, and it's a sour. Sounds unfriggin real:tu

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 

Seth, do you buy and drink a lot of commercial Wilds/Sours?

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 

Yes, I do.

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 

Have you tried Cable Car or Duck Duck Gooze?

I have loved the Russian Rivers I've tried. I wish more breweries would put out sours, it just seems that sours aren't that popular I guess.

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 

Weyerbacher Heresy.

Grabbed a few bottles of Life and Limb that I'll bring to the shack.

Re: What beers are you enjoying?

Shipyard Pumpkinhead is back on tap in New England for the fall season!!

Had three at lunch today -- I'm sensing any client putting in an RFP this afternoon is going to see a "Happy Vin" discount on their proposal.

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 

Had myself a FAT TIRE last night with my Captain Jack, and the smoke actually made the beer better.
