Late Night BeerAdvocate - Tuesday

thanks chad... felt like that kind of night. i'll save one for next time when you open your blauw/roze... also, that kate glass is awesome!

 

EvilTwin Freudian Slip for me tonight, and my last KBS

 

couple ganny summer ales and a finest kind so far

 

Started with a Bigfoot.. well, 2 actually.

Then moved to a Deviant Dales, and now finished up with a tasty Rouge RIS.

 

well, here it is again...Tuesday!!! my favorite night to open a big beer. in keeping with the past 3 Tuesday's tonight's selection will come from last year's eclipses. tonight, we delve into FiftyFifty's Imperial Eclipse Stout - Buffalo Trace Barrel Blend. not my favorite of the series, but still a hell of a beer. these have been so enjoyable, that despite my plans, i ended up putting in an order for futures yesterday when the bottles were re-released...can't wait to try them!!! cheers fellow BA'ers!

 

Yep, at the Belly Up, great venue, fun show!

 

So, tomorrow afternoon I finish my second year of law school, and tomorrow night, I hope to make an appearance in this thread describing what I've actually been able to drink.

I need your help!

It's fresh. It's only been out maybe 2-3 weeks now I think. It's a pretty good seller around these parts, but being local, it's a favorite. It's a seriously drinkable DIPA, good malt backbone, but plenty of hops and smoooooth.

Just wish it was cheaper.

 

Old Raspy is good.. I have a half a 4 pack at my inlaws that I think I left one night.. I know it's still there.

However.. Yeti is pretty good to fill the void when my KBS is gone, but it's not better, IMO.

The Espresso Yeti, however, is the bomb.

 

Not sure how many more chilly nights we will have, so I decided to crack open a Peruvian Morning. I really love this beer. Sipping on it while listening to the Phils struggle to score yet again.

 

First time having this one. Pretty tasty, thanks alefish!

 

Espresso Yeti was a touch too biter IMO, but right now I'm drinking choco yeti with my father and it's primo! Great stuff.

 

Having my first Deviant Dale's. Wishing I wouldn't have read reviews beforehand, now I can't decide if I actually taste onion or if I just think I do. Either way I do not like onions, but the beer is decent.

 

starting off with a Captain Lawrence Liquid Gold tonight

 

Reimagine those flavors as being the various flavoring ingredients in gin (or something like that). First time I had Deviant, I had onions on the brain. Second time, it smelled / tasted like botanicals. And it was awesome.

 

2X SNPA, Go figure, Followed by an Acme and maybe another.
Lucky to have so many choices.

 

Playoffs? Playoffs? PLAYOffs?!? don't talk to me about playoffs! Gotta love Jim Mora.

 

SAME!!!! I'm sipping it, and I like Dales Pale Ale, and just tried a Deviant Dales for the first time and was reading that.. Not sure if I pick that up maybe in the after taste. I hate raw onion. Beer ain't bad, though.
