Current beer craves

Rauchbiers and sours. Too bad there aren't too many of the fomer and the latter are pricey.

 

Old Ales, Milds, Bitters, as usual.

 

I'm in PA right outside of Philadelphia and we basically didn't have winter this year, the temperature hit 78 today so I had to stop in and check out what was at the distributors. Right now however I'm craving Dogfish Head 120 Minute IPA, I have a four pack left from my brothers wedding two years ago that we're cracking open in May when I get my teaching certification.

 

wheat's, lagers, witbeir and pils for me when march rolls around, love sitting outside drinking a few of these in the golden sunshine

 

Got a craving for a Blind Pig right now! Cheers!!

 

Currently craving sours. I've got Lolita and CW Exodus in the fridge for this purpose

 

Very good beer indeed. I liked it more than Pliny The Elder.

 

I had a Lolita Sunday. It's...very good. Let me....err...us know what you think about it.

 

Suddenly weizenbocks dominate my cravings. Been through a bunch of Aventinus and Slam Dunkels the past two weeks, and tonight it will be...

wait for it...

(damn you, Colorado Bobs - now you got me doing it!)

At least I'm getting the stuff to satisfy the urge, everything except Victory Moonglow that is...

 

Zombie Dust. The warm weather really makes me want the amazingly dry hopped bottle of bliss.

Warmer weather always make me want hefeweizens as well. Weihenstephaner and Mother Earth will do.

 

Will do!

 

I just picked up a World Wide Stout that I plan on aging, but it has me craving a RIS, I am also desiring a good dopplebock.

 

Sometimes I think the same thing then I open another Pliny. LOL!

 

Craving IPAs alot lately

 

American Pale Ales, don't know why but i can't get enough of them. That's a lie- it's all because I had a Zombie Dust.

 

Hoppy Red Ales, Nugget Nectar, May Flower Spring hop, and others. I'm craving something hoppy and sweet.

 

lots and lots of cheap shit, followed by a couple killer ipas.... regular or imperial, it dosn't matter... but after drinking that swill it tastes 100 times better than usual....

 

The girlfriend is turning 24 tomorrow and has requested grilled cheese and tomato soup for dinner... it was such a weird request, especially cause she's usually very picky (see: healthy) about her eating habits (minus beer of course haha). Anyway I'm excited to make her some gruyere on dark rye and gouda/cumin grilled cheese... but I'm more excited for the beer that's going along with it.

This weekend (at the KBS release) I bought/traded for some of her favorite beers (all in the ipa-style) and ipa-ish beers that are supposed to be just great. For tomorrow with dinner we're having a side-by-side of

Zombie Dust
Heady Topper
White Rajah
Nugget Nectar
Columbus IPA

Needless to say, I'm craving tomorrow night's lineup.

 

gourmet grilled cheese indeed...but.... i would pair it with a nice stout..... probably go old school and keep it simple with... guinness stout original........... either way enjoy................
