I got the chance to try the Yeti and Three Philosophers and both were great! My friend traded for some stuff and got a few bottles of the Jubel 2010, kinda looking forward to trying it.

Will post some pictures of the DL later tonight.

Err brain fart. Temporarily confusing The Abyss as Yeti for some reason. I need to stop drinking. :D

Blasphemy!! That's like comparing J&B blended to Highland 18 y/o single malt.

I think we need to vote Travis off of the island. :D :r

Stopped by a little out of the way shop to pick up a couple more bottles of Nightstalker, and found a 4 pack of OB TenFidy for $11.99 on the shelf.

No way I'm buying this at $17.99 which is what I see it at at every other store around here but I'll bite for $11.99, come to papa.

As long as you are using CO2 to push the beer and not a hand pump a keg will last a long time. Right now I have 10 of the 5 gallon homebrew kegs and 1 commercial keg in the fridge.

Nice haul! I'm going to try and hunt down a SN 30th here soon. I'm out of Goose Island Bourbon County. Definitely buying more next year.

Jolly Pumpkin is one of my favorite splurge purchases. Spendy bottles, but I'm rarely disappointed by them.

Earlier this week, I picked up a 6er of the Sam Adams Longshot pack. The coolest thing about this 6 pack is that the beers in it were developed by homebrewers. Longshot is a homebrewing contest Sam puts on every year and the three winning beers are brewed, bottled, and sold sold as 6 pack. They even put a picture of the homebrewer on the bottle's label. Is that cool or what?

The three beers this year are Lemon-Pepper Caesan, a Barley Wine, and an Old Ale. All three are pretty good beers, but I feel the Old Ale and Barley Wine beers are a little too similar of styles. It would be nicer if they had three beers that were a little more different. Last year's 6 pack had better variety with a Double IPA, Cranberry Wittbier, and a Traditional Boch.

Picked up three beers from a small upstart brewery here in S. FLorida. :D

A Saison - one of my favorite styles of beer. An IPA - something I drink often and enjoy. And a Brown Ale that I am told by the brewery is still carbonating so I will have to wait to enjoy that one.

I plan on doing reviews of all of these so keep a look out.

Picked up a 6 pack of Deschutes Twilight Ale, 3 bombers of Deschutes Black Butte Porter (for a seemingly amazing price), and a Yeti Oak Aged Chocolate Stout (which was promptly drank by my wife and I :D). Looking forward to trying both of the Deschutes.

I've seen these at Hop City, Mink's (Marietta), Total Wine (Marietta) and at quite a few other stores around town. If I'm out and see one again I'll let you know.

Try the stores I mentioned above as well as Jax in Cumming. Also Sherlock's on Barrett Pkwy tends to have a great selection of sesonals but never seems to move them all so they tend to have a good "out of season" selection

No pics, but made a restocking trip today.

Four different variations of Great Divide's Yeti and a four pack of Dogfish Head's Aprihop. Love the Aprihop. To me it is a sweeter version of the 60 Minute. I also picked up a sixer of Dale's Pale Ale and a 4 pack each of Gordon and Gubna by Oskar Blues. Don't let the can fool ya. These are really good beers. I also grabbed a cube of PBR, because you can never have enough of the greatest cheap beer in the world.

Not sure if they are able to keep beers out of season, but Green's on Ponce would be another good starting point. Jax in Cumming is a very well stocked place as mentioned by Albert. Also, Giant, on North Druid Hills in the Toco Hills shopping center, keeps a pretty good selection on hand. I love that it is only a block from my place.
