    Top 10 doubles pick should be for all hop heads like me . Aren't you satisfied all the way to the last gulp?

    Went on the tour over at Swamp Head today after work and had a snifter of their Twisted Pine collab farmhouse IPA, Swampy Mountain High. Tasty as always. (Nice little tour, too!) What I'm really psyched about, though, is whenever they release 600, a 5ish% ABV saison aged in white wine barrels . . .

    Thinking about a bottle of Ranger IPA here. It's pretty fresh and it's cold, so that's good. Saude!


    Edit: Nope, I'm done for tonight. Too full and I need to get up early. Have a good night, ya weirdos!

    Should be in the top 10 of all hop heads like me. If I could buy this beer every week I would but my son sucks it down and all of a sudden I have one left. I'd pay 20 bucks for an experimental 8 pack.

    Went there last week, really enjoyed Tropical Disturbance and Midnight Oil.

    Midnight Oil's a sleeper—way better than the amount of respect it'll ever get from the average beer snob. And I think Tropical Disturbance was a huge success, so hopefully they'll brew it again. I'd love to see that one in cans!

    Splitting a growler of Up Top! IPA from Jdubs Brewing with the wife tonight. Tom is still playing with the recipe but best batch yet!

    SN Pale Ale while planning out hop additions for my next home brew. How can the phrase 'Net 5 gals after hop loss' be so enticing?

    This is one big bourbon, big hoppy beer. Great bourbon quality but I find the hops just too much for my liking in a bourbon beer. I want to sit and chew on the bourbon but the hops push it out of the way and suffocate my palate.

    Nothing wrong with being a late adopter. Had my second yesterday and I live almost close enough to throw a rock and hit their fermenter.

    Some homebrew. I registered for my first competition ever with this (13B) Sweet Stout w/ some Madagascar vanilla beans added:

    2.5 weeks in the bottle, carbonation's coming along nicely if not ready. All I'm hopeful for is some good feedback. Competition is 5/9/14.
