What beer are you drinking now? #749

i just got one of those as an extra in a trade and it is very nice. hope you enjoyed

 

just picked one up, have not tried it yet but really excited for it. hope you enjoyed brother

 

Olde Hickory distributes to all of NC, and according to seekabrew.com, they have limited distribution in Tennessee. I've seen their beers in Knoxville, not sure about anywhere else. Looks like you'll have to travel north or trade to get some.
Cheers!

 

Finally got to see Carcass and Obituary last night, been a fan of over 20 years, never had the chance to see them live, Obituary just crushed it, btw pic is of Jeff Walker from Carcass.


Beer is Blue Pants Brewing Chocolate Oatmeal Porter, also going to finish the night with some 2013 George T. Stagg, also watching UFC Fight Night!

 

Man- I have some really good stragglers in the fridge. Here's the latest one to go down-

(recycled photo...just not in the mood to take a new one. Plus, hey, I get to show the Schlafly glass again )

I just got in the mood to play one of my all time fave albums- best track right here:

"ya know he's too big to be a house cat,
and a heap too small to be a lion."

Time to pick up the pace a bit Birthday gift beers from my wife and kids (birthday was a couple of weeks ago, just now getting around to drinking one). Got a set of four, two in the cellar to age and two to enjoy now.

Holy crap is this good!

 

Hardywood Bourbon Barrel DIPA tonight--Wow is this beer amazing.

 

Boulevard : Dark Truth Stouth

 

Extremely happy and lucky that I was able to score a six pack of this. Smalltown Not Your Father's Rootbeer (5.9%abv version). Of course it tastes just like rootbeer, which I enjoy very much. Surprisingly though, I think the alcohol comes through more on this one than the 10% version.

 

Still Lovin this one

 

4 and a half year old chocolate yeti

 

So...How is it? Details please!

 

Just heard a Christmas Song on the way in to class this morning. I thought pretty soon we'll get it prior to Halloween...

 

@ledzeppelin4
Had a bunch of this same batch. Sadly it peeked a little over 2 years out. The chocolate is gone and the oak had become the dominant flavor. Strange enough there was almost zero roast flavor left. Still fairly well carbonated considering the age.

 

Nectar Ales (Now back to Humboldt Brewing) Black Xantus Imperial Stout. If you did not do your research on this beer, you would probably pass this up every single time you saw this at a liquor store. But if you did, then you would know that Firestone Walker had a lot to do with this beer. They bought this brewery a while back and blended different barrel aged beers to get this product. It's aged for a total of 6 months in bourbon barrels, retired Firestone Walker Union barrels, and wine barrels and is a blend of all of these. Oh yeah, local gourmet coffee is added to this too. Big roasted coffee, fudgy dark chocolate, bourbon (without the heat), oak, vanilla, fruitiness from the wine barrels, and sweet carmel to balance everything out. Very smooth for 11%. A surprisingly complex and well done beer!
