Beat the #### out of anything else I had. Just awesome. 

Ended up with French Vanilla Militia. 

Win. 

Oh, the Pipeworks and Floyds collaboration Zombie vs Unicorn was great. Wish they had Stay Lit, their hazebro collaboration with Forbidden Root but they didn't.  As far as I know anyway.

Finally stopped by Mikerphone. 2 minutes wait to get Mikerphone check 1, 2 and I want IPA. Didn't have time for tasting room and that line was 15 deep. I wanna get back there sometime. Great beer!

Tried Check 1,2 today.  Fantastic beer.  

 
Firestone Walker PIVO - the next morning.

Pleasantly surprised I don't feel bad at all. I will order this beer often if i see it on tap.

I tend to switch what I'm drinking after one beer. Mix it up. Maybe get 2 a row of something. Haven't bought a six pack and then drink in straight through in maybe 10 years until I put down a Pivo six pack a couple weeks ago. I love a good pilsner and pivo kicks ###. It took a couple hundred years, but America can finally make good pilsners. 

 
Victory Prima is another outstanding American pils if you guys are looking for one. And I agree -- good pilsners are perfect summer beers.

Oberon here today, another great refreshing lawnmower beer.

I got a couple 6 packs Wednesday and sounded like they got more in Friday.  Don't think it's a hot item but not sure it'll sit around too long either

Just cracked one open. It absolutely is a NE IPA (I have had several Michigan beers tat advertised as NE and were just dank, but no haze). This look, smells and feels right. It's just lacking in punch. It's very mild and needs either more sweetness like M43 or more hop punch like Boxer. 

 
Didn't crack the Biere de Mars yesterday, just dove in a few minutes ago. Damn. Well done Jolly Pumpkin. Somehow I hadn't tried this one before -- back to Whole Foods tomorrow to load up. Just outstanding -- tart without being a lacto-bomb, funky, dry, and complex AF. Blind tasting this, I'd bet an awful lot of $ that it was from a several hundred year old Belgian brewery. Really effing good.

Yeah all they do is sours so it seems they've perfected the art.  Probably gonna hit one of their brewpubs up Wednesday night

I've come to expect excellence from them, somehow I missed this one despite it being pretty easily available. Wish I had tried it years ago, it just really hits the mark for my palate (I can't handle tons of lactic acid in a sour). Damn near perfect for me -- and I'm coming recently off of some big guns from Hill Farmstead, so for this to make me sit up the way it did is really impressive.

 
Got some Trillium from a buddy. Obviously fantastic beer for the NE IPA style. I'm just not sure I love that style as much as other people do.

I'm the opposite when it comes to NEIPA's.  It's the only style of beer I want to drink.  And it's super easy here in NYC to make it happen.

I am seeing more and more of this, and I don't get it. People walk in to where I work and say "do you have anything hazy" and if I don't and say as much, they just walk out. So weird.

I'm the buyer for a beer bar here in NYC.  I usually dedicated 6/30 taps to IPA's, and if at least four of those aren't NEIPA's, my customers will get pissed.

 
In Dallas for work so stopped at Rodeo Goat. 

Had a couple Alpine Not Nelson and a couple Community Mosaic. Both delicious as hell.

I don't get that either. I personally love well done NE IPAs -- but also West Coast IPAs, and saisons, and pilsners, and APAs, and a slew of other crystal clear styles. Judging a beer solely based on "is it hazy?" is silly. The haziness is actually the least important factor IMO.

 
Made a run over lunch: Unfiltered Sculpin, 18th Street Skreech, and Cooked Stave Petite Rose, Colorado Wild Sage, and Surette. So effing happy that Crooked Stave finally landed in Indiana.

 
:excited: Doing a Tampa brewery "tour" with the wife tomorrow...Angry Chair Brewing, then Cigar City, the Cycle, then Arkane, then Rapp, and then Tampa Brewing Company for dinner, then Coppertail. Followed up with a cornhole with @Wingnut on Saturday at Civil Society. Going to be a great start to my work trip!!

 
At DFW with a Deep Ellum ipa. Found Community on tap but I didn't feel like hanging out at Wolfgang Pucks. 

I do recommend that beer though. Mmmmmosaic goodness. 

 
My sister sent me a crowler of Weldworks Juicy Bits. I feel like maybe it's lost a little bit, but it's a really tasty ipa.

Any Nightmare on Brett? I don't do sours normally but that one caught my attention.

What a great time - can't remember all the names of the beer though lol! We skipped Rapp and Coppertail due to time, but may be going back on Sunday for Cigar City Cider & Meadery and maybe hit up Six Ten and Hidden Springs for the sours. Heading out around 2-3p to go to Sailfish and then Civil Society. Another great day for beer!

ETA

Angry Chair - outstanding beer, cool tap room. Faithful Sinner and Thought Process were the best we had.

Cigar City - big place, tons of handles and really enjoyed Space Pope.

Cycle - really cool place but wasn't blown away by their choices, to be fair only had two since they don't do flights only half pours.

Arkane - Probably my favorite place. Gimmie Swelter a mango Habanero berliner was amazing.

TBBC - Really good food and the beer was really good as well. Had a Ja Precis NEIPA that was very good.

Closed two big deals at work today, Pens kicking ###, drinking the first round of Crooked Stave to hit Indiana. Life is good.

CS made a NE IPA that I thought was outrageously good. Not sure if they ever bottled it or if it was just on tap at the brewery, but if you see that- jump on it.

 
On my way to West Palm now...T-minus 4 hours til I'm drinking all the hops with @Hawks64 at Civil Society. On tap today:

Juice, Pulp, Fresh, Emerald Showers, Mosaic Blondes make me hoppy, Nelson Blondes make me hoppy, plus a couple other non hoppy offerings. 

That's a murderers row of Civil hops right there. I see several crowlers in Hawks' future. Lol

:excited: :banned:

Plus I'm bringing a 750ml of J Wakefield DFPF Berliner (dragonfruit passionfruit), can't wait for that one, he upped the ABV from 4% to 7% this year.
