Beer

Beer is the beverage of choice for the great unwashed.

I sip scotch, like a gentleman.

Had some of it on Saturday actually enjoyed it greatly. I can't remember what it was, is Bushmill's a scotch?

[Aqualad]

I used to be a beer snob. Then my chick did our household budget and we realized that we spent more on beer and wine than on food. Now it's strictly Pabst Blue Ribbon and Yuengling in the Aqua house.

[CHUCKWAGONCOOK]

Hey Smellers,

Just moved to Asheville NC Yesterday. The've got about 8 Breweries in the city.

Fuckin' Heaven!

I went to the A.B.C. (Asheville Brewing Company) (http://www.ashevillebrewing.com/beer.htm) last night.

SO good. I had an Amber, an IPA and Porter for Dessert.
ALso some great pizza with alfrdo sauce, spinach, mush. and blk olives.

Woody: How would a beer feel, Mr. Peterson?

Norm: Pretty nervous if I was in the room.

-- Norm from 'Cheers'

That's why I love you Aqualad.

You realized the importance of your buzz. I do the same thing at home. Except I drink Natural Ice. It's got a wicked high Alcohol %, and it's cheap for "Home Buzz". When I go out I splurge and drink the Craft Beers. That way, people still think I'm a Beer Snob.

[Whiskeyportal]

Natty Ice?!?!?!?!???? You fucking savage! That's just wrong, you, you, you commoner you!!!

[CHUCKWAGONCOOK]

Natty Ice?!?!?!?!???? You fucking savage! That's just wrong, you, you, you commoner you!!!
It's how I keep "in touch" with all you "little people".

Woody: "Pour you a beer, Mr. Peterson?"

Norm: "Oh, alright, but stop me at one. No, make that one-thirty."

-- Norm

[Whiskeyportal]

Well I hope we're worth the constant diarrhea you must be suffering from :drunk: Next you be shotgunning 211's.

[CHUCKWAGONCOOK]

Well I hope we're worth the constant diarrhea you must be suffering from :drunk: Next you be shotgunning 211's.The Malt Liquors are really rough. I can not drink them without getting rock gut. The same goes for those Tilt Energy Malt Drinks. Rock Gut again.

I'm fine with the N.I. I think it tastes OK. It's defiantly better than Budweiser. That just tastes like Soda Water to me.

But I do brew my own beer and really have been enjoying the hops lately. The more the better. A couple of 120 minute Pale Ales from Dogfish Head brewery is what I dream of.

Woody; "Can I draw you a beer, Norm?"

Norm; "No, I know what they look like. Just pour me one."

-- Norm

[epo]

Blue Moon, chumps

Correct. Any beer that requires fruit is for chumps.

You should try and find the IPA that Big Sky Brewery makes. Very hoppy. If you ever find any of their beers, they're all fanfuckingtastic.

Woody: "Hey, Mr. Peterson, there's a cold one waiting for you."

Norm:"I know, and if she calls, I'm not here."

Big Sky Brewery, eh? I will check them out. There's a store down here called Total Beer and Wine. I bet they got it.

No wonder your name is Whiskey "Portal". You're the portal to all things great!
Thanks


Woody: Little early in the day for a beer, isn't it, Norm?

Norm: So float a corn flake in it.

If I brew it, I will drink it.
insert semen joke.




But I was just polishing off a growler of Sixpoint Brownstone. It was fucking amazing.

[DiabloSammich]

I stumbled into another thread where people were discussing how good Budweiser and Miller Light were, so I figured I'd bump the OG of beer threads.

We have the standard Shiner Bock in the fridge, along with some nice Chimay Ale, and a four pack of this little beauty....

No.

Bushmills is an Irish Whiskey.

[CruelCircus]

Speaking of Irish Whiskey, I recently had Redbreast for the 1st (and second!) time.

THAT, my friends, is an excellent whiskey. Incredibly smooth, and definitely not to be wasted on shots.

I just bought a six of Indigo Imp Jester, it's a local Cleveland brewer, but not for long. This beer is fucking fantastic. It tastes a lot like Jolly Pumpkin.

[underdog]

I bought a bunch of different types of hefeweizens yesterday and just been drinking them in random order. I love it.

[boosterp]

Going to store soon to buy some Shiner for the weekend.

Getting some 96 and 100 year packs.

I had the Magic Hat Wacko in a place of ill repute over the weekend. Very good, very red. Made with beets...

i bought some "Samuel Adams Imperial Series" beers. Its $11 for a 4 pack. I bought the Imperial Stout and the Double Bock. Right now im drinking the Imperial Stout..its really strong tasting, but the more i drink it the more i get used to it.

a good imperial stout will run 10 or 11 percent. Brooklyn's Double Chocolate is around. But it's warm out, not the season for dopplebocks or imperial stouts. Warm weather is belgian triple or dubbel season (7 - 10 percent)...

ever have Bell's Imperial Stout? It got a 100 (out of 100) rating in the beer ratings they put on the products at the store i go to. I liked it better than the sam adams because it had a bit milder taste. But as far as stouts in my life go, nothing can touch Guiness. One of the few things in life that the most popular is the best

The thing about Imperial Stouts, Bell's Expedition especially, is that they should be stored for a while before drinking. You don't have to, but with some of them you get a taste like soy sauce if you drink them too soon. Garrett Oliver, the brewmaster at Brooklyn Brewery actually recommended buying Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout and storing it for about a year, the same with Monster Ale. They're based on Russian Imperial stouts, which were brewed to be strong to last the long trip from Russia to Europe way back in the day.

I had some Landshark this weekend. I liked it enough to drink about 10 of them.

I'm getting thirsty. Have you ever been to Brewery Ommegang? I've heard it is great. I have to take a trip up there one of these days. Unfortunately, it always seems that I have something to do the weekend of Belgium Comes To Cooperstown, so maybe this fall I'll just go up for a weekend tour.

[boobieman]

I'm drinking shock top. Not a bad flavor. Should have a piece of orange with it, but I don't have any orange. I like it better draft. Also been into UFO, by Hefeweizen. I love trying different types of beers. I like beer draft rather then from a bottle. I can not drink any beer in a can...it just taste like metal crap.

Also if anyone is in Brooklyn, I went to the Brooklyn brewery in Red Hook. They give a free tour..which is actually only one room, but it was sort of cool to know the history of how the brewery started. The cool part about going to the brewery, for $20 you get six tokens, each beer is one token, unless you get their special beer called local one, which is 2 or 3 tokens. They have plenty of seats and you can have food delivered to the brewery for yourself. They can't give free samples...city will not let them...uptight pricks. It was very cool.

I like the local one, but to me the local two whcih just started is even better. Ok i'm off to have a few or dozen. Wednesday= weekend...ok now I sound like Anthony.

Are you kidding me?

here's what else Yuengling has been up to if you're interested

POTTSVILLE, Pa. - Dick Yuengling Jr., fifth-generation owner of the brewery that bears his name, called his employees together a few weeks before their labor contract was set to expire to talk about the future of the business.”Read between the lines,” he told them at one point, according to government documents on the management-union feud that followed.

Depending upon whom you ask, Yuengling’s speech was either a pep talk to urge employees to work harder or an ultimatum to dump the Teamsters union, which is what they did.

Union leaders say Dick Yuengling told the workers that he would sell the business or shut it down unless they shed their decades-long affiliation with the Teamsters. How else, they say, to explain the sudden decision to decertify?

[lleeder]

That's great news. Next week when Hottub goes there the Yuengling will be $2.99 a six pack.

[ToiletCrusher]

Well, if you won't drink, I will drink for you!

Sorry I didn't see this until now.

Robert Ranolph was great, as usual.

As for the 10th Anniversary IPA, I was very impressed with it. A really enjoyable, drinkable beer. It's heavy on both hops and malt. The sweetness of the malt cuts the bitter edge off, so it doesn't have the bite of your typical Double/Imperial IPA. It's not nearly as sweet as DH 120, but I think that's a good thing. 120 is too sweet for me as an "IPA." You might compare this to a DH 105min, if such a thing existed. Hopheads will appreciate it, but I think people who usually are turned off by big IPA's will enjoy Blue Point's take on it, as well.

It's going to be in limited release- on draft locally, and in 22oz. bottles only.

Neat bonus for the fest- everyone got a coupon for a free growler. Their tasting room is open Thurs-Sun for tastings and I think a tour is available, too.

It's near the Mattituck LIRR stop.

I stopped drinking for awhile (I know it sounds stupid being that I just turned 21 recently, but it fucked with my already fucked up ming) and had some Guiness tonight. 5 to be exact. To me it doesn't get better than a Guiness on tap. So good.

And Smutty Nose Imperial Ale is the worst beer I've ever had. God it's awful. It's the only beer I've ever not finished.

Beer Fest this weekend in NYC!

Over 100 Beers on tap. Anyone going?

http://brewtopiafest.com/

[underdog]

Went to a Belgian Beer Fest last night. It was bad ass.

Some of my favorites, that I remember :

Affligem Blond
Brooklyn Local 1
Duvel Green (this is Duvel's light, crisp new sort of mass marketing beer, it was very refreshing)
Eurobrew's Brasserie du Bocq: Blanche de Namur
Wittekerke
Southampton Publick House's Double White
and a bunch of Unibroue's selections.

We tried a bunch of Saisons, too, and most were pretty good, but we had one that tasted black licorice, one that tasted like weed, and another that tasted like nail polish remover (if it could possibly taste good)

[Fallon]

After watching SNL last night and the million Bud Light Golden Wheat commercials I decided to try it today.

Taste like Bud Light.

[Ogre]

Underdog, given your quick jump past swill into the finer fruits of barley, I have a feeling that you will be liking Guinness in just a matter of time. Get a pint from a good pub (not just any ol' bar) because the taps will be fresh and the lines will be clean. Sit at the bar and order, and just let it sit for a minute while it "cascades." When you take that first sip, you can feel the malty-nuttiness in your taste buds and olfactory glands...
Man I want a pint right now. I wish I could be there with you.

Slainte,
SinA

A Proper Guinness will be 1 part NO2 and 3 parts CO2 on the pressure lines feeding the keg and it has a diffuser on the spigot that must be clean. When working properly....... Nirvana.
The thing you hear clinking around in those Guinness pub cans "tall boy" sold at finer beverage stores, is a nitrogen widget. (patented by Guinness but used by other English brands) will give you some of the same effect. SinA is correct though let it "rest" for a bit...then quaff.

A very big festival on LI, with a focus on international beer.

Pretty much what you would think. Hops smacking you in the face. Which could be a good thing. Bright, bitter, piney, fresh, clean finish despite the strength of the hops. Sweet label, too.



http://www.anchorbrewing.com/images/promo_christmas.jpg

Once again, Anchor's Christmas Ale is amazing, dark, rich, not overly spiced like some Christmas themed ales try to be, just a solid, solid brew.




And the most beautiful thing to happen to beer in some time....

For those who didn't hear, Sam Caligione from Dogfish Head teamed up with Sierra Nevada's Ken Grossman to create this amazing beer, almost a stout, made with a portion of each company's secret yeast blend, along with other assorted goodies.

Story here... (http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/09322/1010705-478.stm)



I was able to scavenge 5 bottles from the only store in the area that had any. I've had two so far, and I'm really trying to let the other ones age, but it's a daily struggle.

[weekapaugjz]

Having a little shindig at my place tonight. Got a 12 pack of blue light, sixers of magic hat #9 and a local IPA, and a 4 pack of boddingtons. Along with a 1.75 L bottle of crown royal and a bottle of rye.

Gonna be a drunk one tonight.

Nice stuff, but I found it a bit "flowery" for being that high in alcohol. I think there should be a little more to the flavor. (just my $0.02)

You'ld be surprised by how many labeled "craft beers" they own. You might have already bought their products thinking that they were of a much smaller outfit with higher standards and truer artisanal background.

(it won't always say AB or Miller brewing on the label)

DeKoninck is only a pale ale by name really. It has little in common with British and American pales. It is definitely a belgian beer. It is always described as the Budweiser of Belgium, but that is only due to the scope of its consumption. I believe it is hopped mainly with Saaz and maybe a touch of Styrian Goldings, and it definitely has some Belgian yeast character.

I've been alcohol-free for about two weeks. (Just a little hiatus to get my bloodwork right for the thyroid med I take).

I wanted to go a for a month or so, but look at the line-up at one of my favorite haunts! (http://andyscornerbar.blogspot.com/)
(this place is 10 minutes from my house!)

I've decided that I'm stopping in for the Three Philosophers event on Wednesday night. (Gonna have 2 beers... a TP and a BPA). Someone is usually there from the distributor (if not the brewers themselves) at these things. I got to talk to brewers from Smuttynose and Troeg's there at past Wednesday events.

I never saw ANY Ommegang product on tap there and now there's gonna be 2 of their greats on tap. WTF? Why now?! :annoyed:

I think I was on the phone with him for 30 minutes just talking about beer. He went out of his way to get my first keg for me this week (I heard him call the beer rep on the phone while I was on the other line).

I get the CO2 filled tomorrow. I will have cold beer on tap Saturday. Oh fucking yeah.

Not only that, a pint of beer is only a true pint if it is filled to the brim, if there is any head on your beer, you are getting less than a full pint.
