:tpd: Sam Smiths makes some great beer and Oatmeal stout is one off my all time favorites. Im not a huge fan of pairing beer with cigars but this one works oh so well with a good stick.

I drank a Yuengling Lager today. Does that count as a beer?

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

Barely.

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

+1.

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

On Saturday was enjoying DFH B****es Brew on tap at a local pub.

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

Had a yingling ocktoberfest today... not bad... tastes like a watered down Sam Adams ocktoberfest and was likewise priced... No complaints here...

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

Thats my boat drinking beer. Haters gone hate.

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

That beer is fantastic. Don't see it distrbuted in Indiana so I can't pick it up at home. But I am on the road half the month and pick up all I need in Chicago or California.

Enjoying New Belgium's "Red Hoptober". Not nearly as "hoppy" as Ranger but still has a nice hoppy zing to it. Balanced and smooth.

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

I don't think Lagunitas makes a bad beer. Their entire line is top notch.

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

Picked up a bottle of Rogue Double Chocolate Stout. Looking forward to cracking it open tonight after work.

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

One of the great things about where I live is that I have a fantastic German brewery (Sudwerk) almost literally down the street. Even better is that their regular beers are very accurate to the German styles, unlike a lot of so called German breweries in the US, and they have some incredibly creative brewers who like to brew up lots of half-barrels of experimental beers in every style imaginable (we get 2-3 new beers a week there on the average). Unfortunately, because of this, I don't bother to get out to other breweries that often or even buy that many bottles when I have something that damn good and that I like that much in walking distance.

But sometimes opportunity comes around... Since I was in Vegas for a few days, I managed to sneak out to Triple 7 Brewery and sampled all 8 of the brews they had available. All of them were very nice, the IPA and Red Ale weren't very aggressively hopped but they worked well, the Saison and the Porter (on nitrogen) were the standouts to me.

Grabbed these four bottles from two other craft breweries in the area on my way out of town and they all have to die today since I can't take them back with me (gee, bummer).

Thanks Dice (Skywalker)!

foster's oil can tonight... just wanted something to chug after the gym ;)

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

working through some breakfast stout. soooo good :tu

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

I was grousing about not getting Lagunitas in Indiana and happened upon this website for folks in the Upper Midwest - specifically IN:

http://brewersofindianaguild.com/about


At random I chose Three Floyds (close to Chicago in Muenster IN):

http://www.3floyds.com/

I specifically looked for their 'Dreadnaught' Imperial IPA and absolutely loved it. I am not a big beer hound but every once in awhile I get into a beer phase. I might start looking around for more midwest brewed beers. I know Bells Brewery up in Kalamazoo, MI puts out some great brews - 'Two-hearted Ale' comes to mind immediately.

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

And another from Dice...

How is it Adam?

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

Nicklebrook IPA. Pretty good...

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

I think it has a lot of potential with a year or two of cellaring. Right now though, it's good, but not great.

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

Black Creek Pumpkin Ale.

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

Found a sampler from Pyramid that I'd never seen, so I'm drinking this tonight:

Next up is the Pyramid Oatmeal Stout.

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

Lawson's Triple Play IPA... just a small glass, someone brought in to work - but it's good.

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

I've been enjoying Left Hand's Nitro Milk Stout lately, it's good to be in Colorado :)

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

Sam Adams Fat Jack double Pumpkin last night. Not amazing but not bad

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

Lot's of people didn't like this one that much.. Boring I guess

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 

I just shared a bottle of this with my wife. As a committed hop head, this wasn't up my alley, but very good none the less. She liked it a lot and we'll probably get a few bottles to age for a few years.
