I'm dieting so my beer consumption is almost nil :| :(

I'll tell you this. This thread should be a beer sticky for anyone that is interested in REAL beer! One heck of a resource here.

TD - it was like liquid candy, ultra smooth with no taste of alcohol, just whiskey flavoured toffee. So the aging made it smoother. Still 7.1 % so it packed a punch too haha.
Bluesharp, just stop eating food, you can survive great on an apple and a dark beer a day :P

^excellent! Wow Lilova is getting so big already... Watch out before you know it she'll be two and running around stealing your beers and the keys to your car. At least, that's what mine does.... :mrgreen:

Just cuz I ain't posted in here for a while doesn't mean I ain't been drinking!
I recently celebrated my 50th bday (almost a month late) and got to bust open a Fuller's I've been hoarding for over a year. Me and Mrs. rocko. shared this while listening to the newest Om LP. Damn good stuff worth waiting for!
Image
Got a few presents at the party!
A coworker gave me two assorted six packs and a growler of Dragonmead's Ring of Fire and a very close friend gave me a six of Sierra Nevada's Bigfoot that he's been collecting since 2004!

I hope this makes someone jealous cuz I know I would be! :lol:

Yeah, out of the second pic I've only tried the Edmund Fitzgerald and the Giant Slayer.
Both good stuff.
I killed the Ring of Fire and need to get more!
It's a very good pepper beer that goes down smooth with just a bit of pepper at the end. :D

Oh, I'm sure my wife will snap a few pics, lol..

I stopped by New England Brewing Co today on my way home from work. Came home with two growlers.. Their usual Sea Hag IPA, and a special run of Coriolis Double IPA. Can't wait to crack one open later!

Enjoy your vacation man, the misses and I just spent a couple of nights in Mohonk Mountain house with NO KIDS and it really helped. I need new projects now, I'm thinking about building the Electric Mistress, I've been out of the loop so I'm not sure who's is the ruler at the moment. Madnean has the mxr style and the EH style as well BYOC has theirs. Anyone have any preference?

Good stuff! Malty, rich flavor, high-ish ABV. I like their Trois Pistoles better but still damn excellent.

^^ La Fin du Monde is one my favorite beers. It's just slightly behind Delirium Tremens.


Here's what I just hooked up the gas to. It's 5 gallons of American Pale Ale (loosely, by the BJCP guidelines):

I deployed to Afghanistan with some Czechs... their NA beer was WAY better than ours. Also, if you hung out with them enough, a lot of their NA beer wasn't NA.

Awesome dudes.

EDIT: I'm out of tonic water. It's martini time!

I had a lot of fun on those days. Martin (Czech dude) gave me a metric assload of Kabat and other Czech bands to listen to (since I'd already been improvising along with a big chunk of their catalog) while I taught him "Beer" by Reel Big Fish... which he f'ing loved (turns out that most of the songs he gave me were about getting massively drunk and/or traveling North).

Also, John Denver songs sound weird as shit sung in Czech but they're apparently much loved. I have no idea why.


Crazy, crazy times. I'd almost like to go back.
