    Left Hand Smoke Jumper can jump off a cliff and die. 21.5 oz. poured down the drain.

    We also have a local brewery here in OK called Hueberts, it's a travesty to our state's brewing cred. I've only had one and finished it although it was terrible, and I've had buddies tell me of dumping them. Embarrassment to the state.

    Coop,Marshall, and Choc FTW!

    I picked up a FFF Apocalypse Cow from my local spot, which is usually really good about rotating inventory. I picked it up in April...AC is a June release (which I didn't know at the time). Needless to say, it was terrible. Immediate drain pour, but my guy at the shop refunded the cost like a boss.

    I rarely drain pour any beer. Last night I had a Trader Joe's Boatswain Twin Screw Teamer Double I.P.A and it was bad... tasted like a soaped up Old-ale. It was drinkable but I decided to take it out of its misery and drink a Fractional IPA instead. I think I will have to start getting pickier about what I drink.

    Brooklyn Brewery Concoction. Thought I was drinking sanitizer. SA Cranberry Lambic (even tried again the following year hoping it was better; alas it wasn't). Shipyard Smashed Pumpkin: which made me feel like I know knew what would happen if you drank a liquified Yankee Candle.

    Pearl Street Dankenstien DIPA. Pure shit. I had to have 3 Wright Pils to remind myself what a good beer was.

    Drinking this beer was as enjoyable as listening to Rick from Pawn Stars laugh.

    Tough to decide which I poured down the train quicker between voodoo Bacon donuts or batch 31 blue lady.

    Last night I drain poured Odells Saboteur. Both the smell and the taste seemed unintentionaly funky. I think I had been hanging on to the bottle form nearly a year. I kept trying to go back to it throughout the evening but could not.

    I'm sure it's been mentioned, but...

    I have never poured out a beer because it was that terrible. I always manage to choke it down and appreciate the experience of trying a beer I hadn't yet tried. But Rogue's Voodoo Maple Bacon Donut was a close one. Fortunately, we had split the bottle between five of us, so we didn't have to suffer through the whole thing. If it had been a bottle just for myself, I would have poured it.

    I appreciate adventurous crazy beers. I was hoping a maple bacon donut beer might work. But it just tasted like liquid smoke and baco-bits. It was beyond the point of adventurous and creative and crossing into the obnoxious and gimmicky territory.
