Trying Palmetto Blueberry Backtrack Hefeweizen. I usually don't do fruit beers, but the gf picked it up for me. Pretty ok stuff. The blueberry is barely noticable instead of being way too heavy like a lot of brewers tend to do.

Update: Went up to Winston Salem yesterday to visit a friend and he recommended this bottle shop. Bought all of their Tilquin except the pinot gris one, and they also had 7 or 8 different New Anthem IPAs and a Grimm IPA. Drank the Grimm IPA last night that was fukkin stellar. Will get into those NA IPAs today ish I imagine.

There are tons of good beer stores near you. Tasty Beverage in downtown Raleigh and the owner Johnny is cool. Bottle Revolutions are all good with the Lake Boone location getting the best sh!t. BR 3 gets some rare ones too. BottleMix is decent and will surprise with some rare ones that are hard to find.
Find High Branch as well. Resident Culture is the guy that helped Russian River brew amazing beers. Get them. Funguys, etc you are in a beer mecca. Grimm is decent but all of these guys are better.Your nutrition and workout program determines your success.

Ya I had a Res Culture once, I forget what when and how it was honestly. I still want to hit up Funguys, never heard of High Branch. Friend in Winston Salem says that NA isn't all that good to him, lol, so we'll see how it goes. He and I seem to have very similar palates (except for Burial IPAs) so I'll def let you guys know.

Call me crazy but this week I’m chasing the elusive 100% Brettanomyces fermentation and I’m brewing a gnarly Pale Ale on my Anvil Foundry 6.5 gallon brewing system. Last time I tried this it didn’t work out super well and that’s because not all strains of Brett are able to fully attenuate wort. This time I made sure to choose the perfect strain and I’m taking advantage of some research conducted by White Labs.
see here how I did it

I was grocery shopping this morning and the store had a display of Not Your Father's Root Beer. I forgot all about that stuff. I didn't even know they still make it. That stuff is diabetes in a bottle.

Do Brewdog distribute in the US? They’ve got some really nice beers and have launched quite a few recently. I’ve got their Mallow Laser Quest ready to go when I get my smell and taste back, it’s a 6% IPA with pineapple, sherbet and sweet fruits. I had one just before losing my taste and it was lovely.

LOL damn, I remember when you couldn't even buy that shyt in stores it would sell out so fast. But ya, I forgot about it; can't remember the last time I've even seen them either.
Yes, they SUCK. They opened a huge brewery in Columbus, Ohio and a good friend's fiance works for them in distribution or something, so I always talk shyt as much as I can.

A couple years ago, Brewdog released this 6pk of their top beers distributed everywhere. I remember getting excited to finally trying them and being let down. Every can absolutely sucked. Tasted of malty garbage. It’s almost like they think the US has a sh!tty palate.
Recent stouts/porters I grabbed
This was an amazing stout
Finally had this whale

Shame you can't get your hands on some quality US IPAs because you'd likely laugh at the stuff you're drinking...
Although, there's nothing wrong with liking shytty beer either. I sometimes wish I only drank Bud/Miller/Coors as then it would lower my expenditures and lower my calories.
I think utilization of hops too with most haze brewers starting first hopping at flameout whereas "traditional" IPA brewers use continuous hopping which sets you up for insane bitterness...
Good rationale. It's possible. I feel most people either want shyt that tastes like soda (Not Fathers crap, mead, pastry stouts, pastry sours/smoothies) or want flavored boozewater (stupid seltzer shyt).Official Supp. Misc Beer Policeman

Is it dumb to wear a shirt of the brewery that you visit?
I went to a couple breweries with my brother today and someone was wearing a shirt of the brewery we were at. I thought it was the dumbest thing ever I don't know why lol. If I was the beertender/server at a brewery, I think it would be cooler to see customers wear shirts of other breweries."I don't mean to sound bitter, cold, or cruel, but I am, so that's how it comes out."

Wife and I went to southern IL for a 4 days of hiking in Shawnee national forest and decided to swing by Scratch Brewing. Really interesting place and loved the beers I had. It was nice to see a brewery not just following the stereotypical styles and trends and do them very well.
