Our selection at the herf yesterday.

Dogfish My Antonia, Cigar City Guava Grove, Cigar City Big Sound Scotch Ale, Six Grapes Port, and two beers brewed by our own landhoney. A Scotch Ale which IMO blew away Cigar City's and a Sour beer that was awesome too!

Exactly. Bourbon County Coffee is awesome. That, Dark Lord, and KBS, are 3 of my favorite beers.

I said the bourbon ones were rated higher, basically suggesting to try those instead of the regular........ It appears you missed that :r

Hunt you down some bells, dog fish head, stone's, alesmith and founders imperial stouts they are MUCH MUCH better.

Even Goose Island bourbon stout is MUCH MUCH better than the regular. In fact their only good beers appear to be bourbon stouts.

I guess I did.

I like Guinness, because it's light, widely available, and tastes good extremely cold. Plus if we're playing a numbers game, it did get a 91.

Someone started a thread on porters recently. I picked up a 6er of the Edmund Fitzgerald based on recommendations there and really liked it. I went back to the store for more and they were out, so I bought a Great Lakes sampler pack, which had 3 of them in it. All of the rest of the beers were very good too.

Try to find the Bourbon Barrel Heine Bros Coffee Stout. Awesome. Kind of like a lighter (7.5% abv) KBS. It's pricey at $12.99 a 750 but definitely worth trying. I had it at the brewpub but they just released the bottling. The label says Family Reserve and has a few people on it.

New Glarus Moon Man, and Fat Squirrel. This brewery is amazing. I had some family bring some back for me:tu Also, I had their IPA. Funny, I didn't see it on their website though:confused:

Used to hang out at Heine Bros. in Louisville on Bardstown years ago...would love to hunt down some of the beer.

ODLS1 08-09-2010 10:36 PM

Re: What beers are you enjoying?
 
If you or anyone is really interested I could pick one up and if you pay for the bottle and shipping I can ship it. Or we could maybe form a trade. Just let me know. My work got 1 case - not sure if we will get more or not.

It'll probably be a while before it makes it's way here, unfortunately :(. But I'll see if I can get my meathooks on it. If my local contacts can't come through, I'll kick a PM off to ya and we can set up a trade. Sort of a some of my local for some of your local kind of thing. yeah?

There was a place in kenosha wi that tapped a year old keg of CBS. One of the bartenders tapped it by accident so the let it be and sold it. Missed that, but I did hear they will be bottling some CBS this year.

Wow...I haven't heard this. Where did you get this info? I'll also try to find out more when I'm there. Being a mug club member at Founders sometimes has it's benefits.:)

Please do. Looks like it is nowhere near headed my way soon. We'll have to set up a trade or straight cash or something.

Good news and bad news....
I found out that the 1/6 keg being tapped of the Founders on Saturday is actually Black Biscuit.

Bad news.... I found out that I am going to be 100 miles away in Springfield. :(

The Black Biscuit seems to have gotten a lot of great reviews. I would be curious to know how it is.
