re: Let's talk microbrews good beer

Had two over this past weekend...

Agave Cerveza | Flying Dog BreweryFlying Dog Brewery - Pretty good summer time beer. If you remember Tequiza, this is the smarter, better-looking distant cousin that you don't mind being seen out in public with.

Kona Brewing Company | Fire Rock Pale Ale - Didn't like it too much straight from the bottle. So I poured the next one in a glass, and the longer it sat, the better it was.

Let's talk microbrews

Wow so the midas touch is not good. White grapes belong in wine. Not happy but ill push on through
Edit: decided to switch to six point resin. Ill save the dogfish for guests when they are drunk enough that anything will do.

re: Let's talk microbrews good beer

Grabbed a pint while I waited for some food to be made last night.

Elysian Brewing Company - SuperFuzz Blood Orange Pale Ale - Nice hoppiness but not overly bitter. Good citrus flavor.

Then went next door to the beer shop and made a 6er. Had 4 of the 6.

Nectar IPA Beer - Humboldt Brewing Co. - Great hoppiness. Definitely worth a try.

Session Premium Lager | Full Sail Brewing Co - Smooth drinking lager. Would be a nice jumping point for non-craft drinkers

Rumble IPA | Great Divide | - Great IPA with a very caramel aftertaste. It was almost weird. You get the hoppiness as you drank, and then this smooth caramel vanilla favor on the back end.

Allagash Brewing Company - Black - Ended the night with the Allagash Black. Great stout beer.

Have an Allagash White and a Oskar Blues G'Knight left to drink.

You'll find the Union Jack on many IPA top-ten lists, and the Double Jack is likewise high on the best-of-DIPA lists. Both are worthy, IMO. I was lucky enough to get on a list at a local beer store for the annual release of the Firestone Stickee Monkey, a Belgium quad style aged in whiskey barrels. I'm letting it age a little (got the bottle in June). Bottom line is that you ought to give at least the Union Jack a try.

re: Let's talk microbrews good beer

Just found out I've probably got Celiac disease :-(

Still have to undergo biopsy to confirm, but pretty lame.

Anyone know of any good GF beers? The Omission was pretty good. I've had redbridge and haven't been impressed. I'm more of an IPA guy myself.

re: Let's talk microbrews good beer

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.
