What kind of beer is everyone drinking tonight? (19 Viewers)

Rev Anti-Hero brewed with whole cone Centennial hops on cask

Aristocrat>I'm drinking alone so I'm gonna keep posting here to look like I'm doing something important.

 
Picked up three of those Pipeworks thanksgiving beers at Binny's today, and some Orange Truffle Abduction for me and as gifts for some friends. :thumbup:

Half Acre Torus at the taproom at the moment.

Leaving work in 30 minutes. Text me where you are going after Half Acre.

 
Going to go get a Liberty Street Smash (single malt and single hop). It's a Polaris hop which is supposed to be somewhat minty.

 
Alaska smoked porter. Solid but not one of my favorite years of this variety. They went a little easier on the smoke this time. Some people may prefer it that way, though.

So you aren't snowed the #### in right now? Did you finally wise up and skip town? 75 degrees and hoppy in San Diego today, btw...

 
Treats last night at the GI Fulton brewery in Chicago.....all on tap.

Proprietor BCS (holy ####!)

Lilith (pomegranate Berliner Weiss)

Cherry Rye IPA (no name)

Experimental Honey IPA (no name)

 
Any Wisconsinites hitting the Lakefront Black Friday release? I was interested in getting the Black Friday gift pack, but not sure if I will be able to make it to the brewery.

I've never been, but I've heard it involves large crowds lining up outside for hours before the doors open. Even with no lines, I can't see myself in that picture. I am pleased that they're doing a barrel RIS this year rather than the black IPA, as I will likely get some at some point.

A friend of mine is hosting his grand opening this weekend, although he's been open for several months. He's releasing his 13% coffee RIS today, an "American Sour" tomorrow, and a robust porter on Sunday. I had a taste of the RIS directly from the fermenter about a month ago and it tasted great, obviously needed some time. Most of it is going into barrels to be aged for another 6-12 mos.

Lots of other events planned in addition to the three releases --> https://www.facebook.com/events/385449138290847

 
Having a Crank IPA at Cycle before checking out Mike Birbiglia a few blocks away.

Regarding the dates of the hoppy beers, my fiancee grabbed a 4-pack of DFH 61 minute IPA yesterday, which is a good beer. I haven't seen it around lately, so I looked at the date. It says 5/30/14. Is it going to be bad?
61 isn't really an IPA in has the grape beer blended in, so it is an adjunct beer for me. Age always affects beer, but this one shouldn't be to it's detriment. I think. Never had it. :oldunsure:
II thought that was a typo, Ive never heard of 61 min.
It's 60min plus some grape beer (Syrah?)
Pass.
You shouldn't. One of my favorite Dogfish offerings.

 
Chicago guys running down to Skokie Sunday for my sons' hockey game, will hit Binny's. Anything special out there to look for? I was thinking about Pipeworks stuff seeing as I can't get it in WI. Just purchased a 2012 Black Husky Twelve Dogs and Barrel Aged 12 Dogs, plus with all the Central Waters Barrel Aged stuff around the corner I am not planning on spending significant money, probably a bottle or two. of something.

Can't go wrong with Pipeworks. I also highly recommend Heyoka if they have it. Won silver at the GABF I believe this year. Can't get enough of it.

 
Had one of the top 5 beers ever last night. Just fantastic.

Knee Deep Hoparillo triple IPA. Bought last 3 at the store. 22oz of 11% goodness

 
Crazy good haul today for me.

PW

A Couple Two Tree

Blueberry Pie Scraper

Smore Money Smore Problems

Slapshot

Stick to the Nuts

White IPA

Lagunitas Sucks

Rev Fistmas - doing a tasting in store and I liked it. Not as good as GL Christmas Ale but a worthy holiday ale.

Drinking Unicorn's Revenge now, very tasty.

 
Question....

I do like Kilkennny, and the cream ale. Can someone recommend a good/awesome cream ale for me to try.

Anyone had Hobgobblin? Tried it the other night, and enjoyed that one also

TIA

If you drank the any of the Pipeworks or Slapshot please let me know what you think. I was thinking about picking up the three pipeworks or the Slapshot.
 
Downed a couple Pretty Things Meadowlark IPA during my lunch hour yesterday, very good stuff. Brewery out of Somerville, MA that seems to be producing quality beer after quality beer.

How long has this been around? I believe I was in Somerville about 18 months ago and I usually do a search for any breweries wherever I go and I don't remember any coming up that close.

Not sure what I think of the first one but want the other 2. Also looking forward to Nelson sauvin ninja.

Going on a run before the game tonight. Might change the location to a place that carries Pipeworks instead of the closer store.

And hit Hailstorm for a growler of their galaxy ipa.

Blueberry is very good if you like blueberry pie :thumbup:

ETA Will be trying the Stick to the Nuts tomorrow and have had the White IPA on draft and I really liked it. And with PW I will try pretty much anything that produce just based on how many different brews of theirs that I like to love.

I wanted to try it just to try it but am also a bit hesitant about it. Will be getting at least two maybe three or four of the nelson sauvin ninja for sure. If you aren't able to get any send me a PM, I can keep one on the side for you.

Cool. Thanks.

 
Forgot I have a Chipotle Smoked Porter in the fridge.

Also, cancelled my FFF trip today since they are out of Alpha Klaus. Going to have to hope I get some at the store I guess. :kicksrock:

Supposed to be in distribution already? I can check with my guy and see if he has any.

It's not but it usually follows the week after it's gone from their page. At least that's what it seems.
I'll be at my spot Mon or Tues...i'll check and PM you if they have any.
