Cigar Asylum Cigar Forum - What beers are you enjoying II?

Tried some Dogfish Head for the first time last weekend.

A friend of a friend brought some from out of town (Can't find it anywhere here).

First one was the Raison D'Etre. Complex, tart, and really held my interest. Very surprised with this one. I couldn't stop thinking about the flavors between drinks. Totally not what I was expecting. Great beer for the curious.

He sent home a 60 minute IPA with me, which will get drank tonight after work. I'm going to put it against the last Bell's Two Hearted in the fridge.

they have a good seasonal too, Dogfish Punkin Ale, very good if you can get your hands on some.

If you like the Big Eye, try the Sculpin.

Ohh I love Sculpin! I can't get it often, but once in a while it shows up. It might be the perfect single IPA ever. Just awesome stuff. I'll settle for Big Eye tonight though.

Being a local brew, we have it on tap frequently.

Shiner Prickly Pear craft brew. Not bad for a fruit beer.

On a whim my wife picked up a bottle of chocolate oak aged yeti from Great Divide Brewing for me. Very chocolaty! I've only had the regular Yeti, but I'm liking this one.

Southern Tier Gemini, which has come to be one of my favorites.
Label looks awfully like Felix Baumgartner - including the capsule

Breckenridge Oatmeal Stout.

12oz Bottle into a pint glass

A - Coffee black with a quickly dissipating dark brown head. No lacing.

S - Coffee, sweet toasted malt. Slight vanilla. Definitely the soy sauce funk that I find in all stouts.

T - This is almost what I would consider to be a perfect Oatmeal Stout. The burnt toast bitterness is right on the front. I wish there was just a tad bit of sweetness to balance it out. Heavy on the bitter chocolate from the first taste through to the finish.

M - Medium heavy body. Nearly perfect carbonation, virtually no astringency.

O - LIke I said, this is one of my favorites. I think this is one beer that Breck absolutely nails.
