Hah. Thanks bro!

Re: Let's talk good beer
 

i had a dream last night that i was at a beer store and saw a 4 pack from russian river.

i got really excited thinking how in the hell does this store in Md carry it. i concluded they must buy it second-hand from a place up in philly and probably pay a premium ...

i then grabbed it and realized it wasnt an IPA but just their ale and then i stood there debating whether to get it or not.

on one hand i want to try russian river but on the other hand it was just an ale ... i was leaning towards getting it and then i woke up.

im pretty disappointed my fridge only had the truth sitting in there this morning.

bourbon sales are going crazy. I dont know about anybody else, but when i hit the abc store its right to the Whiskey, bourbon section. I might every now and then get a dark rum or tequila if im in that beachy mode, but im usually looking at about 5 different burbon or tennessee whisky and grabbing whats on sale between them. probably trying a couple new burbons yearly too to change it up too. Hopefully with increase production and higher inventories we can see a lil price drop. Noticed the increase in price the last couple years...

Re: Let's talk good beer
 

ballast point ipa - damn good beer. got a sixer from dockside discount warehouse on fleet st for $9.99. i think im starting to get out of my hop head addiction which is nice. i can appreciate regular IPAs now. i dont need to drink strictly hop heavy beer.

sierra nevada torpedo - i normally dont buy domestic beers but the liquor store around the corner(with its bullet proof glass and all the other lovely trimmings that come with my neighborhood) has a very limited selection. i liked it more than i anticipated.


food spot - honey pig in ellicott city is a must try for anyone in the area. they also have locations in frederick, VA and another location. awesome amazing korean BBQ, fun environment, my 2 yr old loved it.

It's going to take years for supply to catch up with demand. For the good stuff at least.

Re: Let's talk good beer
 

devils backbone eight point IPA - okay. wouldnt buy it again but thats my personal preference. 3/5

public works knuckle buster ipa - disappointing. a lot of fruit hints to it, tasted like a magic hat #9 which im not a fan of. i dont think it should be labeled an IPA. 2/5


lesson learned - when you are buying 2 six packs, dont make both of them experiments w beer you have never tried or heard of. i still got 6 more of the these less than satisfying bastards sitting in my fridge.

Re: Let's talk good beer
 

^ I hear ya, I try to only experiment with a make your own six pack, otherwise you can get stuck either drinking stuff you don't like or dumping them out

[quote=mlmdub130;1076245]Anyone scored one of the Sierra Nevada "Beer Camp" 12's?? My buddy found one at the total wine, now I'm on the hunt. Pretty cool idea, teamed up with 12 different breweries and are selling all 12 different brews in a limited time 12 pack. There's also a few tour stops across the country this summer. Shocker no DC love.

Just snagged the last one at the loading dock. Quite pumped.
