Beer

Oh wow.

well I survived. I had 9 tasters out of a possible 15. One of my friends got through 15 but was regretting it later. This is what I had in order:

Lost Abbey Duck Duck Guava (first release anywhere)
The Bruery Coton
The Bruery/Cigar City Brewing Marron Acidifie
FiftyFifty Eclipse Imperial Stout 2010 Evan Williams Single Barrel (which cost me two tickets)
Trois Dames Grand Dame Oud Bruin 2010
Avery Quinquepartite 2010
Avery Dihos Dactylion in Cab Sauv Barrels
Firestone Walker Parabola Imperial Stout
Sierra Nevada Wood Aged Old Ale

of the ones I had, the only ones I wasn't wild about were the Avery Quinquepartite and the Sierra Nevada Wood Aged Old Ale. Everything else was outstanding. Place was packed (the event sold out). Luckily my friends and I grabbed a table, but it was in the sun. It got pretty warm, so I was glad I was wearing a t shirt and shorts.

Good beers and good times. My friends tried BrewDog Tokyo (18%) and believe that was the biggest contributor to their inebriated states haha. My buddy drove home, and I knocked the fuck out. Felt relatively fine afterwards other than a slight headache. My one friend who got through all 15 texted me later saying he felt like absolute shit. 45 ounces of 10%+ beers (on average) will do that

Duck Duck Guava

FiftyFifty Eclipse

Spitzer's Corner was DEFINITELY fucking packed as fuck Friday night. Had some good beer but was rushed out by people who wanted food

Store I went to had a sale on Old Rasputin so I picked up 12 bottles for 20 dollars.

In Canada, we call that a good deal.

 

[unknown]

I'd call that a good deal. A four pack here will run you about $7...so 3 four packs would be about $21 (not including tax and crv)

 

[Der Morgenstern]

A four-pack here goes for usually 12 to 13 dollars, depending entirely on where you shop. I don't feel like driving halfway across the city to go to the good stores, so I go to a smaller place close to where I live that keeps two big coolers and display cooler full of specialty beers to cater to the university crowd. Rasputin is a mainstay in their stock.

Also grabbed some Double Dead Guy Ale as well.

Had a few of these last night:

More boring pale Euro lagers? Well, that's the first beer I've seen from Finland anyway.

 

[Cronopio]

I KNEW someone would chirp in with 'boring.' Well, at least it's not weak tasting, and the alcohol level is just about perfect.

Our job here is to exceed your expectations.

[Episteme]

Great beer, but better on tap than in bottles. Then again it might be the problem that it's diluted in bottles. Belgian beers have always been good.

 

[unknown]

anybody else see anything ironic about aug's choice of beer?

 

[Master_Yoda77]

Yes.

 

[Cronopio]

No. Please tell.
