Demand definitely seems to have dropped off this year.

I bought a case when it came out this year and they had no problem selling it to me. Last couple years they limited your quantity.

Having a bottle of Barebottle Brewing Unicorn Dust IPA. The nose on this is amazing.

Thanks for the offer Travis but with shipping, not sure if it would be worth it.

KBS is definitely harder to come by on the west coast

I'm ashamed to say that I haven't consumed any beer since Thursday of last week.

Had a 6 pack of Epic RiNo APA last night and it was fantastic.

Mixing a Grand Armory Nutter Your Butter Business PB Stout with their White Chocolate Ale. Like a liquid Reese's cup.

Any good? I tried the Horny Goat Chocolate Peanut Butter Porter last year and was super disappointed. Tasted like liquified salted peanut shells.

Looks like it's only distributed in Michigan, so I kinda hope it's not good. ;) :r

Checked out their website and they have a good selection of intriguing beers for the non-IPA guys like me. :tu

It's one of the best PB stouts I've tried.

I've only tried the HG, so I don't have any more experience. That mix with the white chocolate sounds like a fun dessert type beer, Bob. :tu

Saturday evening I enjoyed a Crusher, Heady Topper, KBS and a 2015 BCBS (in that order).

I heavily approve :tu

Was in DC last Friday so I hit up Churchkey, my favorite beer bar in the city. Had:

Oskar Blues Jahvanilla BA Ten Fidy
Triple Crossing Blank Shore
Triple Crossing Dawn Chorus
Lost Abbey Serpent's BA Imperial Stout

Thinking tonight I'm gonna drink something tasty as well :al

IPA’s from there are to die for Mac!! An acquaintance gave me a beer from there called Prblms Prblms a month or 2 ago and it was in the top 5 beers I’ve ever had!!

2016 Coffee BCBS last night, cold it tasted like a very concentrated bourbon barrel flavor, as it warmed up the coffee started to show through a little and the bourbon subsided a little, definitely improved. Only coffee BCBS I've had before was 5 years old at the time and out off a keg, tasted nothing like this, much more mellow. looking forward to drinking my other bottle of 16 coffee in a few years

icehog3 08-08-2018 01:53 PM

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 
First year when they used Intelligensia coffee, that Coffee Stout was off the chain, Ben.

Last night tried a couple "new to me" stouts:

Firestone Walker Nitro Stout

AleSmith Brewing Company Speedway Stout

Enjoyed them both, maybe the FW a little more.

stearns 08-08-2018 02:29 PM

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 
Speedway stout is one of my favorite all time beers. I remember when it was impossible to find on the east coast, I was out in SD about to meet up with the S HIT herfers and went to a bottle shop to find something to bring. I saw speedway stout and got so excited, picked up a bottle and brought it to the herf all proud. Peter took one look at me and goes "you know, we can get speedway stout any time we want." I didn't realize it was a SD brewery :r

Had an El Chingon IPA from Austin, TX I think. Went down good with a Punch Uppercut robusto tonight. Gotta give punch some love every once in awhile, they have that classic stogie flavor that got me started in the first place.

Last night had a great Oskar Blues Rum Barrel Aged Death By Coconut.
This evening, a New Belgium Hemporer and an Urban Chestnut O-Katz. All three are great beers!

If you see it - look for Upper Pass Waimea Waves and anything from Frost Beer Works.


I had some Elysian Dayglow IPA this weekend that was good.

Any beer nerds out in Richmond, VA? Looking for some of the special small batch glassware from The Answer Brewing. Buy or trade.

Had a great day at River North brewery here in Denver on Saturday, they release their "Nightmare Fuel" coffee stout, regular and bourbon barrel, also had a BA release from 2016 and another special release with a different type of coffee. Tried a bunch of their other stuff too, could be one of my new favorite breweries around :al

Been loving the stout releases lately, this weekend enjoyed:

Fermaentra Daemon Coffee Variant
Fermaentra Daemon Vanilia Variant
River North BA Sandman
Oskar Blues Mocha BA Ten Fidy
Denver Beer Co Cranberry Princess Yum Yum

The last one is a special release of one of my friend's favorite beer, had to go pick up some crowlers for their christmas gift and figured I'd give it a sample while there. Tasted like a refreshing soda :r

Coffee Eugene, the coffee version of Revolution Brewing Co. Eugene Porter.

Pretty good, but I like the regular Eugene better.

Got my case of 2018 BCBS. At 15.2% ABV, it’s a little harsh and needs to rest for a few months.

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 
Had a Founders Better Half yesterday. That was really good, especially after it warmed up a tad.

Also had a Dogfish *****es Brew, a stout brewed with honey. Meh, it was ok.

Anyone near a west coast grocery company in Portland OR?
Should be extra bottles of a crazy BA stout from Great Notion hitting shelves soon.
