This beer is really good. I was hoping to buy this and some Pliny to bring home for the holidays, but I can't find either at the moment.

this laguinatas brown shugga is my new go-to six pack at 10.99 at the little bodega down the street

crushed a sixer tonight (at 9.9 abv it's like a 12-pack worth of alcohol) and just switched to miller lite

ive never experienced this before but the miller lite tastes like yeasty bread

by **Savage** » Tue Dec 22, 2009 12:24 am

girlfriend says the whole case of miller lite has tasted bad

maybe

Sounds like a standard case of Miller Lite to me.

went out and had some regular crap beer (buck fifty lone star drafts) and finished out the night by going home, loading a bowl, eating ice cream and having a 90 min. man that was good.

had this earlier

Wasn't very good.

deschutes obsidian stout is pretty great. slightly better than their porter, which i didnt think was possible.

by **Hot Piece** » Wed Dec 23, 2009 7:14 am

was lucky enough to visit this pub (http://www.indewildeman.nl/indexe.html) in 2009 and drank the best beer of my life in there. beck zoigler was the beer of the month when i was there (hottest day of the year!) and pint after pint was sunk and soaked up by awesome cheese/crackers/pickles/smoked ham. orval poured for you by busty dutch beermaidens who then present the overflow of head to you in a seperate orval schooner glass! yaman!!!

yeah amasterdam is rad when done right.

by **pissydan** » Wed Dec 23, 2009 9:51 am

mocha death just sounds bad. more busty dutch beer maidens.

by **Hot Piece** » Wed Dec 23, 2009 9:59 am

werd. just back and forth between in de wildemann and de tweede kamer all day long, flower district style! honourable mentions re: beer in 2009 are...

Rodenbach

Timmermans Geuze

Kasteel Brun

by **pissydan** » Wed Dec 23, 2009 10:13 am

by **Hot Piece** » Wed Dec 23, 2009 10:19 am

dude that rodenbach is well worth seeking if you wanna have a long drink. kasteel is fiyaaaa!!!

by **hamilton** » Wed Dec 23, 2009 10:23 am

just got a bottle of DFH Fort for $10. pretty interested to try this stuff.

also got a Vermonster. lady at the store didn't know the price and just rang it in for 2.99. i've never had one but that seems like a pretty great deal.

by **Milquetoaster Strudels** » Wed Dec 23, 2009 12:21 pm

I'm really excited to try Founders' Imperial Stout. Just found out last night that it got released. <3 having Founders in MN finally

by **McDermott** » Wed Dec 23, 2009 7:37 pm

I just picked up some of this and man is it good.

by **Fine Wine** » Wed Dec 23, 2009 7:38 pm

I can only drink one bottle of the chocolate stout a night.

by **McDermott** » Wed Dec 23, 2009 7:40 pm

Yeah, me too, but I'm okay with one bottle tonight. I'm not really looking to get loaded.

by **the scofflaw** » Thu Dec 24, 2009 12:00 am

it feels right to enjoy a sam adams holiday porter as i gaze upon the smoke rising from the stacks of the warehouse in which it was brewed.

by **evil olive** » Thu Dec 24, 2009 1:03 am

I tried a bottle of Brew Dog PUNK IPA tonight. Annoying label on the bottle, decent taste but nothing amazing. Certainly not as aggressive as teh label makes it out to be.
