Mods are the biggest rep traders on this forum but whatever. I'll still rep my fellow beer crew bros on site.

This. However we all take the greens too seriously. They literally mean nothing, and here we are...

[Black_Label]

Spak, carboy or better bottle?

I really appreciate all of you offering your homebrewing experiences. There are lessons to be learned, and motivation to be gleaned for those of us that aspire to get in the game in the future.

I'd rep but, for you particularly, I cant. Right now at least lol.

Some of tonight's offerings:

Hibernation by Great Divide is excellent. Like top top notch. IMO

And despite being the world's biggest SN hater, I was really taken back, in a good way, by Celebration. Totally different than what I anticipated. And extremely good.

Gearing up for UFC.

Thanks for the Hibernation review. Asked about 7 pages back and nobody seemed to know. That 6 pack at my local place is getting drank with my girl on thanksgiving!

Sipping on some Zombie Dust, it doesn't get much better than this

HNNNNNG


No luck finding Lukcy Bastard yet, gonna keep searching.

Yep, Daisy Cutter is some good stuff, Double Daisy comes out every February

One spread with beer bro's

[icetrauma]

So I should pick up some Bengali Tiger?

[Vindicate]

the daily commute to madison might be too long though :*(

[spak]

This is amazing. Exploding with mango, pineapple, citrus rinds, orange, grapefruit, caramel, grass, floral etc. Honestly the cedar really isnt too noticeable

[thefleshlight]

I don't mind it.

And at first taste, this is similar to daisycutter, but maybe with a tad more malt. However, upon repetitious tastes, it seems to get more and more bitter, as if the hop oils linger on your tongue. Was an alright beer, but probably not warranting of it's $6-9 pricetag.

I have a goddamn iron stomach except for when I eat a ton of spicy stuff, then I just get stage 5 ring of fire.

Listen to Ice-T. He knows the bible belt.

I don't have too much beer experience but this was pretty enjoyable. I've had a really bad IPA in the past and this one put it to shame!

Definitely obvious if you like Stone IPA; try Stone Ruination and maybe you'll fit into some big boy shoes

Haha probably so. Most of my experience so far has been crappy light American beers, but I'm done drinking those. I've got a long life of beer trying ahead of me.

You should not drink any good beer out of a frosted mug.

Well you learn something new every day. What is the reasoning behind that? Or is there a good web resource I can find out about all these things. I know next to nothing about beer/alcohol.

[thefleshlight]

It shocks the beer and taste buds and disguises flavor(s). Room temp glass only and ask to rinse out the glass with tepid water before pouring, if ordering at a bar.

www.beeradvocate.com is a good place to start. Cruise beer 10. Glassware also plays an important roll in the nose of the beer as well. But that's for another day.

[thefleshlight]

If I ever owned or used anything that required using a lighter, I would buy one or both of these bitches in a heartbeat:







call me cheesey.

My glassware is an addiction to collect, but I honestly only have a handful glasses I use a ton. This was taken a while back so I have more now but:

Barleywines/old ales, Russian imperial stouts: 22 oz snifter
Belgian Golden/dark, sours/lambics, saison/Biere De Garde: Kuhnhenn Tulip
IPA, Strong stouts, strong multiple style ales: Maudite Tulip
Doppelbocks: Tall Unibroue Tulip (not pictured, I have a different one than in the pic too)
Most styles that are 4-6%: English Nonic pint glass, unless it is a 4-6% beer that matches the logo shaker pints
500+ ml bottles of English milds/ESB/scottish gruits etc: Boulder English Mild imperial pint glass(not pictured)
12 ounce Weizen/Wheat: 312 Weizen
500ml+ bottles of German Weizen styles: Weihenstephan Weizen or Erdinger Anniversary weizen glass(not pictured)
Dunkel, Pils, witbier(sometimes), maibock, bock, craft brewed pale lagers, helles, vienna: Pilsener glass
Quads/Dubbels/Tripels/Blondes, Belgian IPA(sometimes): St Feuillien Chalice



The Boulder Imperial Pint, got it from Winking Lizard for free in May for the glass of the month. It was a great Mild


Erdinger Weizen


The other Unibroue Tulip
