I tried it at FOBAB a few years back. Not a fan. To me it was like a bad/soured brandy. Had a small sip and gave it to my BIL, he loved it.

Back when it came out I had 6 bottles of the Sam Adams Triple bock in the 7oz cobalt blue bottles. It was thick and uncarbonated and not much like a beer. Like an idiot I drank them all but I should have saved them cause they're quite valuable now.

This is an interesting thing to think about. I wonder where i am at. We make it a point to buy several singles from local breweries whenever we travel.
Just counting current stock we have 32 different beers in house right now.

32 different beers is incredible to have at 1 time at home
I usually have 6-8 when those run out grab another 6-8
I don't drink coffee or tea so its just water and beer on trips
I love the app as I take photos of the beer and tag the location that im drinking it so when I do look back or drink that beer again .it brings back memories of that moment and trip

Had a triple IPA from Left Coast Brewing called HOP JUICE. Very tasty. I don't usually go for the double or triple IPAs but this wasn't as hoppy as I expected.
Also had a nice Elysian Space Dust. One of my favorites.
Wish I could remember the names of the brews I had in Minn last month...

I have been loving Pilsners lately. Yuengling Golden Pilsner has become my standard 'go to' nearly always some in the fridge beer.
I recently bought a 6 of Troegs Sunshine Pilsner. In the past when I tasted it I always thought it was too hoppy. Like most of Troegs beer it definitely has a hop profile to it, but it is not over the top and I liked it a lot. I will be purchasing again, multiple times. It's a good beer.
For those of you that are looking for a light beer with good taste I would recommend a new beer on the market Yuengling Flight. It is basically direct competition for Michelob Ultra. The workout / health conscious / athletic beer drinking market is growing fast and Yuengling is entering the game. I tried 1 bottle and I split it with my wife so I didn't have a significant trial. I liked it better compared to Michelobe Ultra and would recommend if you are looking for a light refreshing low calorie, low carb beer.

M-43 and Boss Tweed (DIPA version) are very very easy to find. The trick now is making sure it is fresh. That’s still the best that’s available at stories. HOMES in Ann Arbor the making the best IPAs and sours IMO but they only sell in their brewery.

Founders Frangelic Mountain Brown Ale.
Brown Ale with a hazelnut coffee flavor. Took the growler to fill and enjoy no sports. Had this at my go to filling spot (and didn't have as many local brews outside of IPAs which im not a fan of)...gave it a taste in the store and liked it. Not as heavy as a stout but still big flavors. Tasty.

ETA...guy at the store is wondering when refills will be shut down. With places like starbucks shutting down bringing in your own cup to refill he worries they are next and only new bottles will be allowed or shutting it down in stores all together for a bit.

A few co-workers of mine were travelling in Grand Rapids and had some of this at a one of their tasting rooms. I remember hearing about it and always wanting to try it. It sounds awesome. I've had their Sumatra Mountain Brown and thought it was excellent. The Frangelic sounds even better.

I stopped at Ascension Brewing in Novi, MI on the way to the airport yesterday and was blown away by how awesome it was. Every beer I tried was fantastic (as was the food), and the staff was awesome. Here's everything I had, and a Pic of first flight
Blackberry Pi - sour ale brewed with insane amounts of blackberry, cassia bark, Citra, and El dorado hops, and then conditioned on whole vanilla beans
Strawberry Kiwi Milkshake IPA, with citra and mosaic, conditioned on whole vanilla bean
Tactile Sensations - Milkshake IPA w papaya, lactose, citra, & mosaic
Isometrical - Double IPA brewed hazy and recklessly DDH w/ Galaxy and Strata
2.65 - an 8% ABV Imperial Berliner w/ pink guava, raspberry, pineapple and whole vanilla
Lost in the Sauce - DDH Citra/Mosaic hazy DIPA.
Just Toorf - mango-blackberry-lime smoothie ale
LA CREAM blonde ale soured with lactobacillus and conditioned in stainless for 4 months. Dry hopped with Citra and marshmallow added
The cooler was stocked with 4 packs of cans, but I wasn't checking luggage so I couldn't bring any home...They also have a full kitchen and killer menu, I had a Bacon Board with 4 kinds of bacon (maple, chocolate jalapeno, caramel sea salt, and white/dark chocolate) and a shrimp taco. All excellent. I HIGHLY recommend checking this place out if you're ever in the area.

Smithwick’s Red Ale. Like the balance between malt and hops.

Coronavirus giving me reason to dig into my cellar... I found a 2014 Bell's Expedition Stout. So so so dang smooth.

Sticking to my "only drink on the weekends" thing, even though we're in COVID hell.
Had a high-ABV ale (forget the name) followed by a Longboard Lager, followed by some vodka in lemonade, rounded off by an Abita Purple Haze this past Saturday.
Looking forward to another 4-5 beers this coming Saturday.

Some good breweries in those bracketsA Syracuse sports blog I follow is running a Beer Bracket. 99.9% I've never heard of, but fun enough to follow along. Didn't think it warranted its own thread, so I'm plopping it here. They're already past the 1st round, so apologies for the late notice Link

I haven’t had a 3 Floyd’s in awhile. They make some great beers too. I’ll have to remedy that once this whole thing is over.
