Anyone watch the show "Three Sheets"? It's pretty funny

Our local World Market carries the 60 Minute IPA on and off, and on and off again, as well as the Raison D'Etre. Never seen a 90 Minute IPA on the shelf though, poop. But a local pub has it!

Has anyone had the Raison D'Etre? How is it?

Its okay.

90 minute DFH is absolutely beautiful!

I am pondering as to were I will be able to find those Reco's. It seems no place around here has a very good selection.

You are very helpful sir.

The MI is for Michigan by the way.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Oh, in that case --> http://beeradvocate.com/beerfly/list?c_id=US&s_id=MI&store=Y

Alright, I found a place on the list that is close to my home and has an A+ rating. I may have to stop buy over the Thanksgiving vacation I have coming up.

So I decided to try a couple newish local brews tonight...

First up was 4 Plus's "Monkshine" Belgian Style Pale Ale. Now, this has been out for a while, but they recently changed it uping to a 6.8%. Bad fucking move. The beer lacked aging, and tasted like cardboard. Worst Pale Ale I have ever had. The former version of this was some what flavorful, but this new? AWFUL. And the filtering. The shit was as clear as water. Honestly, they had to have removed everything in the beer except the water through their filtering procedure. Swearing off this brewery till they get their shit straight.

So in order to wash out that bad taste from my mouth I switched over to another local brewery which has been a tried and true local winner. Wasatch brews. White Label, which is a white ale coming in at 6%. Awesome color, low filtering, and an incrediblely sweet, but yet bitter, taste. Definitely a winner in the local realm. I'm definitely going to pick this up again.

Picked up a bottle of Delirium Noel. I was going to hold off until tomorrow, but this brew is beckoning me.

 

[EricT]

I googled... that beer seems quite enticing. There's this new store out in salt lake, has only high class beers and wines. Hope I can find it there. If not, fuck.

Rogue Santa's Private Reserve

Damn delicious.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Southern Tier Cuvee Series One

and a plethora of other shit.

Southern Tier Krampus is the SHIT.

 

[EricT]

I'm trying to figure out what to do with the rest of this shitty fucking monkshine. I have 4 bottles left, and they're just sitting in my fridge, definitely not to be touched by me again.

 

[Reign in Acai]

Alright, I'm going to go drink this Noel and possibly some other Winter concoctions. See you in the "damn, I'm drunk thread" in 5 hours.

 

[EricT]

I'll be there in about 3 hours. I'm pounding these wasatch whites like mad. This is easily the best US brewed White Ale I've had.

Fuck yeah for 4 day weekends... lots of beers to try over this long weekend!

I get back to the grind on Friday night, need to make the most of this Holiday now.

 

[EricT]

I almost had to work friday, due to truck scheduling, but I managed to slyly word my way out of shipping out the friday trucks. And by slyly I mean I told the companies expecting "There is no fucking way we are coming in friday, wait till monday for the ships" via email.

 

[swizzlenuts]

I have a bottle of Cantillon Kriek for today! Cannot fucking wait.
