What kind of beer is everyone drinking tonight? (3 Viewers)

Oberon while I hot smoke some chicken quarters that I brined in cider / spices overnight.  Beautiful day here, and it's about freaking time!

3 parts tequila 

2 parts fresh squeezed lime juice

1 part simple syrup

1 pound chicken wings

1/4 cup melded butter 

1/2 cup grated Parmesan 

1 table spoon garlic powder  

 
Killed the last few Jade (need to reload) and Candy Crushable.  On to the Huma for the hockey game, more Oberon on deck.

Hot smoking (275 - 300) is the way to go with chicken INO.  Low / slow makes it dry, rubbery, and / or bitter.

 
Funky Buddha Lemon Meringue Pie Blonde Ale (pretty good!) and Trillium Galaxy Dry Hopped Fort Point Pale Ale (best APA ever? Nah!) ;)

White Oak Jai Alai

Had that at the tasting room a few weeks ago. The oak really takes the edge off of the Jai Alai. Really good but think I like IPAs in bourbon barrels than oak.

Best tasting beer I had there at Cigar City was the Vanilla Maduro.

 
Local beer place has had a different brewery in every week. They've mainly been Florida breweries (last week was Funky Buddha Wide Awake and Mora Mora) but last night was Founders. On tap was a 2015 Imperial Stout (which was delicious) and Mosaic Promise (good but a little on the dry side). The rep also brought in a bunch of bottles so I got some free samples of KBS and Sumatra.

Nice. Founders is taking over the taps at my local tomorrow night. What else did you/they have?

For Founders, it was just the regular Porter, 2015 Imperial Stout, and Mosaic promise. 

But the place has around 30 taps, featuring a lot of different Florida beer.

 
This reminds me I need to pick up more Mosaic Promise. 

Last night had Pipeworks Lupine using some experimental hop they didn't name. It has great reviews and it is worthy of them. Outstanding beer. 

Stumbled upon some Cassian Sunset at a local dive store. Will be opening one of those this weekend too.

Lupine had an almost Coconut taste to me, outf'ingstanding. Better than Funzino IMO.

Passed on Funzino and got 2 more Lupine.

Just missed on Lunch. It was gone in less than 2 hrs. I did get the last Shimmy Shimmy Ya from Mikerphone though.

Can never pass on a new PW ninja, didn't get any Shimmy but I have soooo much hoppy beer I can't keep up. I can't wait till Mike opens up the brew pub in Elk Grove and Une Annee is close to being ready in Niles.

We sold out of Home bottles in 4hrs. I can't access the BA trade forums anymore, so not sure how much of it was hoarded for trading. A lot of people bought the full case limit. Generally means it's being traded.

Ocelot (eta: wtmf.  i quoted this post.... a month ago. when i replied to this thread, it pre-filled the old quote and the original response i had typed out. i deleted all that information and posted 'Oberon', which the forum changed to 'Ocelot'.  neat.)

Slyfox Royal Weisse. Hefeweizen in a can.

I found a damaged 24 pack at the local beer distributor for $9.99.  It ain't great, but it ain't bad either.  For that price, though, it's hard to argue.

I hear you man. So much good here right now. 

Just opened another Lupine and I agree with the coconut. Love this beer. 

 
Civil Society in Jupiter released 16oz cans of Pulp and Fresh today...half a case limit of each...I wanted to go, but a 2.5 hour drive for 12 great beers and 12 good beers is a bit much. Ive got a hook up down there whos sending me a 4 pack of the Pulp.

 
Still having a tough time getting a hold of Mikerphone. Got one bottle of their sour out of desperation but no IPA.  Binnys did have Todd the Axe man' so that is cool for today.

 
Debating whether to put something from the private stash in the fridge for this evening.  I've been out of town for bachelor parties or at weddings for the last 3 weekends so haven't had a good long Saturday at home in awhile. 

Stopped off at Community Beer Works this afternoon for a growler of That IPA and a pint of KS4 - Hoppy Sour Saison.  New Belgium just arrived in Western NY so I am trying a Citradelic IPA now.  Good but almost a little too fruity.

Don't get too excited, New B is weak.

 
Not usually a big fan of New Holland, but their Tasmanian Hatter Galaxy and Nelson hops is really good. Look out for that.

 
Surly Overrated

Half Acre Vallejo

Basically West Coast IPA's made in the Midwest. 

Also - is Nelson ever coming back to Chicago (or Charlotte at the middle to end of July?)

Just stopped at Four Fathers on the way home from the water park for howlers of To 11 (gose) and Western Sunrise (Brett DIPA).

For anyone local to Chicagoland, To 11 is an OUTSTANDING gose.  Sour, salty (most American brewers miss this aspect), big wheat crispness / twang.  Perfect light summer beer and well worth the drive out to Valpo if you like the style.
