What beer are you drinking now? #113

Are you ready for some football?

A bit more than a half-hour in, Everton is trailing Man Utd 0-1, dammit, but this match is far from over and the same applies to my Cambridge Sgt. Pepper saison. The latter is quite peppery (surprise!); hopefully the warmth will carry over into this afternoon's snow-shoveling duties.

Enjoy your day, folks.

 

YES I AM READY!

 

Yeah, put me on the spot why don't you. The mention of licorice and chocolate suggests..because I'm maybe the biggest fan of The Abyss..that I'd try it and like it. The chili pepper addition takes me back to Cigar City's Hunahpu's. Yeah, it sounds delicious.

 

And I would love to try those too! I am also a stout lover! I am always open to new things. But I always try beer regardless of the love, hype, or fill in the blank, that it may have.

Actually I will tell you how I began my craft journey. It was two and half years ago, when an old friend invited me for a beer at PJ'S Pourhouse in Westmont, NJ. (The next town close to me) I believe at this point I have never actually have a beer, and the very first one I tried was, yes you named it, Verdi Imperial Stout! That very moment I knew I could not continue enjoying wine has I had. I had found it! My place! My buddy said I might have something with this Italian craft love as maybe I can a review channel started solely based for Italian craft!

 

Something different and funky today. Jolly Pumpkin Firefly. I'm surprised it wasn't corked and caged with the amount of carbonation.

 

Sierra Nevada Celebration 2012, isn't as good as 2011's offering

 

Dang, I've been trying to get even 1 of those. Nice work!

 

You better bring one of your hoard of Verdi bottles to a tasting this spring. Just sayin...you need to share that love

 

I can just give ya one! I been actually passing them out! I love sharing it! I am actually trading a couple for a 2012 BCBS so I can give that another try!

 

Not as hoppy. Not as spicy...

 

I simply mixed a Celebration with a Ruthless, and presto, you have a Ruthless Celebration! Yum!

 

Had a pint of Rubaeus at Founders last night. Tastes just as good as it was in 07/08. Now going to crack into some of my Oddside Ales "Howlers" (32 oz). I picked up their Double IPA, Sour Citra Pale Ale, and Smokin Hama Mama (Citra Pale Ale made with passionfruit and chipotle). Cheers all.

 

Well, the driveway is cleared, cars cleared, plus cleared an area for the puppies to go play. Stone 12.12.12 or Smoked Porter are in the snow bank. On the other hand, it was much work dealing with snow...maybe I deserve both!

 

An Indiana beer for an Indiana (Hoosier) kind of day!

 

It's not bad , But I think I prefer FBS .

Cheers !

 

Can you tell me the meaning of the symbol on that glass ?

 

Just cracked this bad boy to watch the Hoosiers! Go IU!

 

Dave Matthews right?

 

Ten Fidy!
