Late Night BeerAdvocate - Thursday

Yep, I tried their IPA last night and I have to say I am pleasantly surprised on how good both the IPA and Oasis Ale are, will definitely recommend as well as buy more of.

 

After my Younger and Locos Taco lunch I've had my BIG IPL, an Abrasive, some of My Funky Brother Brett and am now enjoying some Central Water Bourbon Barrel Barley Wine thanks to Ungertaker!

 

and another recommendation, from our neighbors (them damn Texans) south of the Red River. Have you ever tried Pine Belt Ale, from Southern Star? Good, no, VERY good stuff.

 

I have not, nor have I seen…where did you pick that up at?

 

From Hopocalypse to Torpedo. Yum.

 

wife took a trip to Galveston last year, brought me some back. I think those evil Texans are brewin' some good things down there, from what I hear.

 

What do you play? And what kind of band do you play in?

Hell yeah, I've got Oasis in my glass as well, cheers!

 

It may be time for a road trip!

 

I'll drink to that! Good brew - Cheers ~

 

Yep! I think Dallas may have all these good Texas beers!

 

Ooh, how is that? I was intrigued by the description.

 

I'm in, not afraid to drive for good beer! Need to hit the Arbuckles along the way in the next couple of weeks anyway…

 

Haha that's great.

 

It is definitely worth trying, nice hops with a malty backbone…I will drink again for sure.

 

I play drums for a local Chicago band called Squat the Condos.

 

Just walked in the door from my dart league, which was at a bar that is the scuzziest of the scuzzies. Before I left for said league, I hit up the store for 2 packs of Hoptimum, a bottle of 2009 DFH WWS, and 4 Dark Horse Double Crooked Tree IPAs. I'm finally home after suckin down a few Bacardi/Diets, and just took down my first few sips (gulps) of the Hoptimum. And I will do the WWS and a Crooked Tree or two before I retire...
BTW.... Those canned Tallgrass brews just hit the Milwaukee market bout a month or 2 ago. Gotta say... Pretty good!!! Cheers everyone!

 

Midnight, and I finally sit down to a salad for dinner along with a bottle of Flower Power. Still nice and fresh, great bitterness. I do have to teach at 8:25 so it's time to call it a night . . .

But I think ONE episode of Arrested Development is just fine.

 

I once did a pretty sorry imitation of Jimmy Page on the Les Paul. However, my rhythm work on the Tele, I must say, used to be fairly decent. I always felt like the local bands hired me because I sang like a songbird, and wuz a pretty boy rock god idol substitution, to boot. Plus, I could drink pitchers of Bud, after Bud, and still go home with the best lookin' chick in the bar. O, Glory Days!

 

I showed it to my bro and he said, "gross, it shows feet" and I commented, "do you not understand the simplicity of this label?" haha, great brew too…belgian style golden ale with a warming bit of alcohol at 10%.
