Oh that reminds me, I think the local shop has a couple bombers left. Need to double check and grab them if they're still available.

If you ever get a chance, try New Castle in a can. For some reason it taste soooo much better!

I haven't seen it in a can but I will be on the look out. On draft, it is really something also.

We started off with a Werewolf. Then had a glass of Dragonhead (from Orkney). We are now sharing a bottle of Black Douglas Scottish Ale.

The Dragonhead is a very black ale with a pronounced flavor of bittersweet chocolate and strong coffee. My daughter took a sip and said the Dragonhead tasted like the dregs of coffee left when you leave the coffee sitting in the pot for about six hours. My son said it went very good with the white fudge oreo he was eating.

The Black Douglas is very good and seems light after drinking the Dragonhead.

Drinking a Victory Storm King as I write this. My first Russian Imperial Stout. Black like motor oil. I think I should have let it warm up before I drank it. Right out of the refrigerator all I tasted was malt and alcohol (9.1%). Now that it's warmed up a bit I'm getting more rounded flavors of black coffee and some hops. I'm not sure I could drink this regularly, but as a 'once in a while' drink I think it would be nice.

Nope, I like the large bottles best about 68 degree's or even off the shelf and I pour a little in a small glass (half-pint) and continue topping off as you go. Someone commented that I drink it like a georgie. Not sure what that means or if it is good or bad.

recently went to San Antonio and drank some Tecatewith lime and some place woould dip the top of the can in salt beffore opening and then pu tthe lime on. Mighty fine, mighty fine indeed. Goes great with a high grade Blanco tequilla to sip on. I had Patron and Cabo on two different nights. I think I actually like the Cabo better for this.

georgie is kind of like a british wise guy IIRC. One of those guys that talks nonsense like Austin Powers and his dad did in Goldmember. Just means you drink it like someone from that area, well, some of those from the area.

Dogfish Head World Wide stout. A little too boozy for my taste. before that I have a hang ten from clipper city. That was rather strong also.

My son and I are about to open a bottle of Rogue Shakespeare Stout and follow that with a Rogue Chocolate Stout. We also have some Hobgoblin chilling.

I thought the same of both of these when I had them. The 120 minute IPA, while boozy, was not too much so for it's strength. The hang ten is 10%, but I thought it tasted as boozy as the WWS, even though the WWS is 20%.

Still both too boozy tasting for my liking.

Finished off a big bottle of Yellow Snow IPA. Quite tasty, as are most Rogue beers!

damn WWS was 20%? bottle I grabbed didnt say. The hang ten is ok. I think it would be much better if it was a little lighter I guess. There stout is good though at 8%.\
Have yet to grab a 120 IPA. I kinda steer away from brews that look more up the wine alley.

hmmmm that sounds good. gonna have to grab a few of those my next run. How is the choc stout? Im always afraid they will just taste like drinking chocolate.

Holey Cow 20% That is not beer that's a liquer or at least a brandywine...

Oh! andd thanks for the infor on the Georgie thing. Thats kind of what I thought but it didn't really matter so much.

They were both good. I thought the Shakespeare was better. The Chocolate Stout has a nice bittersweet chocolate taste that isn't overpowering. It's a bit more hoppy than I normally like but I think that it is very drinkable. My only issue was figuring out what temperature to drink it at. I had it in the refrigerator so it was cold when I first poured it. In my opinion the flavor improved as it warmed up.
