Most beer is served to cold. This is frequently done (as I am told) to cover up the taste or lack there of. I prefer cellar temp for most but there are a few that are nice a little cooler. If you try beer a little warmer you may notice many different flavors but as the "rule" goes if you like it that way, drink it that way.

Recently had some Innis & Gunn for the first time and it was great! It was a little bit on the sweeter side but had a really nice flavor to it.

I don't care for it as much as I do their Fade to Black. That one is an exceptional stout (an Imperial, instead of a milk stout.)

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 
Had a central waters mudpuppy porter (my favorite porter).
And Bell's 9000 ale now. I let it warm up a bit and will say this is some crazy beer. It drinks like a sweet beer and finishes like a wine. Not sure how I feel about this one yet.

Oh yeah. Fade to Black is just awesome. It's a dry Irish stout rather than sweet milk stout, but holy mackeral is it good.

It reminded me of Newcastle Brown but it was more crisp. It`s aged in old bourbon barrels so it`s got a pretty unique flavor to it.

Went to Ale Asylum for lunch and had a Ballistic and also a new beer they are trying out.
No official name (last week it was taboo this week it's swagger) but it was a Belgian IPA, it was good.

The 420 is Sweetwater's Pale Ale (Green Label), the BSP is a Belgium Style Quad (its dark and really strong), Sweetwater has some great beers, the special release stuff is always top notch

Right now Im workin on a Hop Wallop by Victory. Also today I went to my first micro brewery, Barley Creek in Tannersville, PA. I picked up a growler or a Drak Lager and a growler of their IPA. The Dark Lager was pretty good, we havent opened up the IPA yet

Had my first ever SN Torpedo last night . Hit the spot as I was in the mood for the pungent and citrusy bitterness . Glissade tonight for sure .

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 
This Glissade is very light and not nearly as flavorful as the Torpedo . Very mellow , might be good to keep some around for visitors .

Bubba - NJ 03-05-2010 06:45 PM

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 
"And now for something completely different" - Affligem Dubbel , date on cork 11/08 , nice thick head , bottle conditioned , nice murky brown color and delicious . A bit sweet and very smooth . It will be interesting to see how the flavors develop as it warms .
