Had a Surly Furious with chicken & green bean curry for dinner. Good eating. Man I love that beer.

Had the Matilda last time through Chicago, I enjoyed it.

Just finished a bomber of Full Sail Barleywine. I'm feeling fine right now.

Had a DFH Olde School Barleywine while watching Inglorious Basterds Friday night:

I love "big-beers," so I really enjoyed this one. It's brewed with dates & figs, which gave it a pleasant flavor and sweetness that complemented the malt and went well with the hop bitterness. At 15% ABV, I'm sure it will age just fine, too.

The label says:

Directions: Open bottle, pour contents into two snifters. Enjoy. OR: walk hand-in-neck into the middle of the woods. Use a shovel to dig a 2x2 hole three feet deep. Seal the bottle in a plastic bag. Place in hole & pack with dirt. Memorize location & leave. Return exactly one year later. Dig up bottle, open & enjoy.

Those guys up in Delaware are a bit off... but they make interesting beer!

Had a Widmer Pitch Black IPA last night... Pretty good, very different. Didn't go great with my Tatuaje Noellas, so I think I'll try it with a maduro next time.

Read Brewing up a Business if you haven't. Gives some great insight into why they do what they do, makes me enjoy their beer a bit more. They like beer...a lot.

Sierra Nevada Stout

BlackDog · 01-10-2010, 07:15 PM

I drank a Goose Island Nut Brown Ale before. Nice, but a little sweeter than I think is right for this style. I'd prefer it to be a bit more bitter.

Now I'm drinking a Tyranean Hop Whore, which is the bomb. Think of red grapefruit juice with 8% abv. Yum.

BlackDog · 01-12-2010, 10:52 AM

Last night I drank a Surly Coffee Bender. I liked it OK, but IMO it's too much like a coffee drink and not enough like beer. I'll drink the other 3, but it's not something I'd buy again.

Drinking my Simcoe IPA that I brewed with some wildflower honey. Tastes so good in the mouth but the aftertaste kills it. I accidentally burned the wort during the boil.

I drink my mistakes though... :-)

BlackDog · 01-12-2010, 06:07 PM

I'm drinking a Founder's Porter. Yowza, this is wonderful porter. I'm not sure where "porter" ends and "stout" begins, but this one sure hits the spot on a winter night.

BlackDog · 01-12-2010, 08:21 PM

I'm drinking my first ever HopSlam. Oh my goodness, what an IPA. There is SO much going on in this beer.

BlackDog · 01-14-2010, 07:38 PM

Drinking an Old Rasputin. Great stout.
