    Have no fear.

    I've just discovered that Hoptimum is a fantastic beer. Never had it.

    What's yours?

    When my friend from the midwest asked for green flash's ipa in a trade, and I thought I should try it. It turns out it's a fantastic beer readily available to me. Also the fact I know very little about Grand Cru's and Cuvee's (aren't those wine terms?). Educate me!

    I've been drinking beer for nearly 50 yrs. In the last year or so, I've been wowed by Pliny, FBS, , Bigfoot, Fuller's 1845, and countless others. I like being a relatively new beer guy.

    Drinking craft since my 21st in January but I've immersed myself. What started as an interest has blossomed into a lifestyle.

    Steel Reserve in a brown bag has happened a couple times this summer. Only way to drink it is in said brown bag, on the front porch, listening to the Beastie Boys, and never alone.

    I find Beer that has been sitting in a used bourbon barrel doesn't taste very good.
