What Beer Are You Drinking Now #42?

Sipping on this while putting up the Christmas tree...this beer is awesome, like drinking Girl Scout thin mint cookies

 

Quoting myself. I know.

But that book back there was a gift from my wife about Pennsylvania breweries. It's not that interesting, more like a tourists guide for PA breweries.

Anyway, it's from like, 2004. I noticed today in the introduction there's a shout out to BeerAdvocate. They name us as a close second to some other site I won't mention, that kind of looks like a messy AngleFire site. Most excitement I've gotten from the book.

 

After Zwanze day got home and opened this.

 

Not much for me tonight:




Cheers!

 

You let it out of the can!!!!!

 

Founders Breakfast Stout

 

First this (for only $4 on tap at Whole Foods)...



And now this.



Anxiously awaiting a beermail as partial payment for some graphic design from a new brewery. Supposed to be delivered today, but who knows.

 

Jersey Rocks!!

 

Seems like I'm buying one every time I go to the store...

Founders Bolt Cutter American barleywine:

It's interesting how each time I have this beer (this is my 3rd in the past couple of weeks), I pick up on different characteristics. It didn't blow me away the first time I had it, but it was good. Now I'm appreciating more fully that it is (typical of all Founders beers) a staunch representative of the style. Real good drinking. Cheers.

 

Lancaster Winter Warmer...even though its not that cold in Philly!



Pours darker than I expected and with a minimal head. Relatively light and easy drinking for close to 9%...definitely malty with sweet undertones, not much in the way of spices or hops.

 

Good stuff! Cheers!

 

Went over Tony's Darts for brunch and the MLS final. Great bar!!!
Pliny for my self and Hullabaloo Winter Warmer for the wife.



Then I went for a Eagle Rock Unity (very good)

Finished with a Golden Road Hefe and wifey had a South Well IIPA
Cheers

 

Starting with a ZD.



Listening to some H

 

2011 KBS is still dang tast-er-ific, cheers guys.

 

Shouldve never got rit of DiMatteo..

 

Having a little tasting with some buddies. Started with this. Good and crisp. Thanks Tom!

 

Trying a 120 minute for the first time tonight...something tells me I won't be drinking much else...this stuff is intense.

 

Going to split this one with the wife next,

 

So I started out with my last SN Tumbler. Good, easiy-drinking beer, but not overly aromatic or flavorful. Currently working on BBC Oktoberfest Lager. First time with this beer and I'm very much impressed. It is quite possibly my favorite of the style. Only one thing I found a bit starnge...did anyone else notice a tangy, yogurt-like aroma and taste with this beer?

 

Sexy pour.
