    Weyerbacher - Tiny. Belgian Style Imperial Stout.
    Another one from @micada and what a banger!!
    I cant fully tell what makes this belgian style , but from experience i assume its belgian yeast which does add a dryer finish on the palate. Off the freeway now and prepping some burgers a la Keto( no buns) with my friend whos a soon to be dad. More good times.
    Nose is all deep dark roast and coco.
    This beer is all stout flavors i expect : roast, dark malt, 60% chocolate and a slight hop bitterness thats always a delight to get in stouts.
    Look? Idk out the bottle . I always thought rating a look is silly.
    Feel: perfect.

    Overall: good times and good beers. What more can one want.
    Cheers!

    This is a great beer. We were going to visit, on our way back from Maine, this Oct., than decided Montreal and Quebec will be better next year. When we visit Nova Scotia and Halifax. BTW, love the tassel hanging low. Their old label art was MUCH better.

    Oops, I made the same mistake, and was more than a bit surprised to think you might have been old enough to be a grandfather. Based on your post in “Show Yourself BA’s,” that would have been, shall we say, impressive. :wink:

    Neither.

    Muay Thai. Never been a fan of BJJ . I train in the good ol Art of 8 Limbs and it's great if you like to drink a lot. Keeps the weight off and mind and body strong! Cheers!

    Your supposed to get that hair of the dog in the morning. A Cafe near a college I went to introduced me to a glorious concoction called a Russian Speedball, Old Rasputin with a shot of espresso in it. It'll definitely get your motor running after a night of serious drinking

    Last time we went there they had none of those in cans. But it’s been a couple months so hopefully they got some back in stock.
    The 3 hour is very good, the others likely would be if they didn’t add junk to them.
    But that’s me.
    Great thread!

    That's me too with the adjunks in the other versions. I don't recall if the others were on tap the only time I was there, but cans were available and I think they were selling singles. I should have gotten some, but I'm pretty sure they were pricey as the reason I didn't.

    There's really no need to comment on Great Divide Yeti! In the last couple of years this beer has vanished in my neck of the woods, so has 10-Fidy.

    Pricey is an accurate recollection, they certainly think well of themselves. But they do make some tasty stouts. I think I will head over there this weekend and see what is available.
    Cheers!

    One of my favorites. Always available and consistent . I can drink this, Speedway,dark star and old raspy in one sitting. And did so many times when Sunset Beer was open. Today i had this post wrap on set. I got to meet Becky G, A homegirl who grew up in Inglewood as well. She was a delight and Pro at her job which made my job easier.

    Speedway is one of my favorites, but cannot drink Yeti- not sure if it’s the type of hops or just the quantity, but it is simply not good to me. Obviously others disagree (strongly even) and enjoy it.
