I can make that happen and send some of their coffee as well (they have a whole separate coffee program. Their house coffee, Black House (which is used in their Black House Oatmeal Stout) ) won second in some giant national fuck you hipster coffee program

Ha, this is one that I might not be able to pass up. I'll let you know.

Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. - Barrel-aged Narwhal Imperial Stout
12.9% ABV / 62 IBUs

Okay, this is great. I think that the regular Narwhal is a pretty solid beer, especially for being so widely available during its release window. This one is just a substantial improvement on that. The bourbon flavor is subtle, and the barrel-aging process has enhanced the already notable dryness of the base beer in a pretty unique way. This is probably one of the best barrel-aged beers in comparison to its base beer, along with Backwoods Bastard in comparison to the regular Dirty Bastard.

agreed. Plus, BA Narwhal holds up really well.

Founders Brewing Company - Mango Magnifico con Calor
10% ABV

The name means "Magnificent Mango with Heat" in Spanish. I had to try this once I saw that it had habanero in it. It's surprisingly fresh and it almost drinks like a very fancy version of one of those Hispanic fruit sodas, which might be the intention. The sweetness isn't overpowering and the habanero and slight alcohol warmth help balance it out. I still wouldn't recommend this to anyone who doesn't like mango or fruit drinks. It was a nice surprise, but not something that I would buy more than once.

I think I need to buy one of those gay beer glasses. I only have hetero pints.

EDIT: Actually I just found a pretty cool one at home, you might even envy a little.

I had Oskar Blues' G'Knight Imperial IPA last night on tap and it might be the most well balanced imperial IPA I've had. It just went down so smoothly.

Smoked Chili Chocolate Doppelbock by Black Market Brewing on tap. It's delicious chocolate with a fiery chili aftertaste. I need more beers like this in my life.

2012 Stone IRS

One of my favorite beers to age. I feel like 3 years is the sweet spot for this beer. This is just a bit past its prime, but still really good. The chocolate notes have faded a bit. Overall it's much more mellow than fresh (as expected)

 

[KMADD]

Def different pretty tasty.

Yum, gute bier nacht

Recently fell in love with Fat Tire amber ale.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

I've always wondered, do they have Fosters in Australia or is it just some bootleg American "Australian" type of beer? That being said, its not bad for an adjunct lager ... especially their "premium"/green cans.

 

[CiG]

What, Fat Tire?

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

No, Fosters.


... the old commercials were way better.

Fat tire is a pretty decent amber though. Very crushable.

 

[CiG]

Oh, I hardly drink Fosters but those commercials rule.

But this is how you speak Australian.

Some beers I bought today. Matuška's 'black rocket' IBA should fucking rule. Permon - black IPA 2x. Porter from Pardubice 2x. Vysoký Chlumec - Flying Cloud IPA 14° once.

 

[Omni]

Have you had many beers like those before?

Have you had many beers like those before?

I've had like zero porters or black IPAs. I'm now drinking the Porter and it feels like a granny drink to go with a cake. There are those cherry tones and shit. It's 8%ABV but it's just not my thing so far.

EDIT: As I said, we czechs drink the same 2 Pilsners 99.9% of the time, that's why I started using Untappd because I want to explore stuff.

Aaaand I'm drunk.
