I've been loving Sweet Water Squeeze Box recently. Fantastic ale made with grapefruit.

stearns · 12-16-2016, 08:23 AM

Last night:

2014 Avery Tweak
2014 Founders Imperial Stout
2015 Sierra Nevada Barrel-Aged Bigfoot
2016 Bruery Share This: Mole
2016 Hardywood Christmas Morning

It was a good night

Fantasyland IPA from Urban Chestnut Brewing Co. Delicious.

icehog3 · 12-17-2016, 01:30 AM

Cracked a Founders Lizard of Koz tonight.

Very rich stout, great nose, good lacing...but the blueberries are a bit overwhelming at this point. Almost like a "sour stout". I'm going to put some away til summer, think it may be really good after the blueberries fade a bit.

Just finished the first bottle of my latest batch of home brew - a vanilla bourbon imperial Porter. It's about 9% abv. I'm going to call it Bad Santa's Deplorable Ale.

Heady is similar to Pliny the elder. I had them side by side once. I prefer heady, it has a bit more hop flavor whereas Pliny has a bit more hop bitter...

I could drink only heady for a very long time without getting sick of it. That said I like Focal Banger even a little better...

Funny, I didn't care for Focal Banger. I liked Heady and Crusher much better.

I like some of the other Bombs better, but still a good one (Birthday Bomb is on point). Bar in DC had 33 different prairies for an event recently 15 of which they considered to be "rare," wish I could have made it.

Last night had some Boulevard Collaboration No. 6 and Wicked Weed Milk & Cookies, both very tasty but I preferred the Milk & Cookies, a little on the sweet side but balanced with some cinnamon and (I think) oats.

Had LoK on tap last night. Still like a sour like the bottled version, maybe that's the intent?

Also had:

Southern Tier Warlock
Founder's Breakfast Stout
New Holland Dragon's Milk

Heady Topper- APA by Alchemist good but over rated

Crusher- Double IPA- also by Alchemist, better- slightly

Paper Mansion- Mango Double IPA by Tired Hands (local Brewery) beers are unfiltered hence why it looks like orange juice, beer of the night easy 9.3 out of 10!! Exquisite!! Best Brewery in Philly area!!

Pennsylvania Tuxedo- APA by Dogfish Head, solid brew I'm a little buyist since I'm a PA resident

mmblz · 01-21-2017, 10:01 PM

Upper Pass First Drop

mmblz · 01-22-2017, 10:09 PM

Frost Junior IPA. Really tasty

mosesbotbol · 01-23-2017, 10:29 AM

Had 1.5 L Anchor Christmas Ale from 2010. Still alive and kicking for sure. Always a treat to drink.

massphatness · 01-23-2017, 10:40 AM

Drank myself silly on Sam Adams Chocolate Bock during the NFL playoffs yesterday. Nice cold-weather brew.

stevieray · 01-23-2017, 06:01 PM

Treehouse Brewing Curiosity 30. Tasty IPA

Last night, great New England beer and football.

Dave128 · 02-08-2017, 07:03 PM

Whiteface Porter from a local brewery. A little happier than I expected for a porter, but still a good brew.
