OK, I lied, I just checked and it's Palo Santo Marron? Is that the same beer? If it is, it better be friggin awesome, it's £5/bottle.

Bill86 · 11-02-2010, 06:42 PM

Yeah Palo Santo Marron, everyone just calls it the palo santo. O_o they are $4 USD here.

http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/dogfish...-marron/66797/ Ratebeer says it's Phucking awesome! I definitely concur.

Lumpold · 11-02-2010, 06:51 PM

How much is Raison D'Etre? Rd'E costs me.... about $4... and that's expensive given local ales are maybe $3/500ml as opposed to $4/355ml.

Bill86 · 11-02-2010, 07:00 PM

Same $3.50-$4.00 for the D'Etre

The higher ABV (18.5%) one is $10 per 12 oz "Raison D Extra"

Lumpold · 11-02-2010, 07:21 PM

Don't have access to that one... the ones I can easily get hold of are: IPA60, IPA90, Festina Peche, Raison D'Etre, Midas Touch and Palo Santo... I presume they're are all pretty good?

Bill86 · 11-02-2010, 07:27 PM

I would rank them from best to worst
Palo Santo($4.50)
90 minute (if you LOVE hops, if not switch this and the midas touch)($3.00)
Midas touch ($3.00)
festina peche
60 minute

Haven't had any of their raison beers ...I don't like raisins.

I would buy the Palo Santo/Midas touch/90 minute all day. The rest meh..They are OKAY, but again I dig the high gravity (6.2%+ABV) beers. The festina peche is a lowly 4.5% abv. Also the 90 minute is the best rated IPA easily out of all of DFH IPAs.

Lumpold · 11-02-2010, 07:47 PM

OK, looks like the next order will include one of each of the top three

Just need to get enough of an order (delivery is £7.50) otherwise it's not financially sensible.

Bill86 · 11-02-2010, 07:51 PM

You'll definitely enjoy them. I haven't had but maybe one DFH brew I didn't like. I remember the one night I pounded 3 120 minute IPA's.... oh that was fun.

Lumpold · 11-03-2010, 01:44 PM

So I went in to the off license, to see what, if any, ales they had. Came out with these.

Bill86 · 11-03-2010, 02:21 PM

If you like the sierra nevada I suggest getting the 30th anniversary ale the fritz and kens is

.

Lumpold · 11-03-2010, 02:27 PM

Well this is the first time I've had the porter... it's not bad, just not as full as I'm used too. I don't hate SN ales, they're not offensive... just have other beers I like more... of which, you will hopefully see photos tomorrow!

Skywalker · 11-04-2010, 08:20 AM

The Smoked Porter is already gone!!!

Lumpold · 11-03-2010, 02:29 PM

Oh, and your beer bottles are too small. What's all this 355ml rubbish about?

Bill86 · 11-03-2010, 03:47 PM

Yeah 12 oz's, unfortunately that is the only size they come in. I look at it this way, I drink more of different kinds of beers instead of one or two of the same beer.

If I was buying bombers I'd go stones. Dogfish head doesn't do bombers only wine size bottles and 12oz's. The Black & blue, Red & white, Sautea, Theobroma, Chateau Jiahu and Miles Davis *****es Brew are all wine size 25.9 Oz.

Also Stones makes good FULL beers, Try the double bastard ale, arrogant bastard ale, Vertical epic, Russian imperial stout and the oaked arrogant bastard ale.

Lumpold · 11-03-2010, 03:58 PM

I can get the Sublimely Self Righteous Ale, Smoked Porter and the Old Guardian easily, might need to search for those you mention.

Bill86 · 11-03-2010, 04:07 PM

The Sublimely Self Righteous is awesome. That the Russian imperial and Double Bastard are my favorites. LOVE the Ruination as well. Double Bastard will always be my favorite though.

Lumpold · 11-04-2010, 10:13 AM

Dark Star Espresso Stout (x3), Lausitzer Porter, Robson's Durban Pale Ale, Delirium Nocturnum, Delirium Tremens, DFH Raison D'Etre, Brooklyn Black Chocolate Porter, Chimay Red, Chimay Blue, Chimay White, Affligem Dubbel. And a chimay glass hiding in the background.

Nice Pick ups!

I love the Raison D'etre and quite a few others there. Never had the Dark Star, let me know how it is!

I will! I don't know about it's US availability... brewed by a small brewer in Kent! I love it... refer the cask to bottles though.

Also... at the price below, it would have been bad form to pass on a bottle of duvel...
