Lost and found beers over the past month or so.

Smuttynose IPA...I went California for the past year or so, but that's a damn fine IPA

 

I just picked up some SNPA as a session beer which I haven't had for quite a while. I was getting too sloshed on the higher ABV beers.

 

pipeworks - glaucus, was excellent and all of there beers ive had the opportunity to try were as well

 

had this years nosferatu last night. good as always.

 

While picking up at Alesmith I had a chance to try my 1st speedway variant.
Arabian Mocha Java. That was a good beer.

Cheers!

 

I've been looking for some red ales I enjoy lately because it's not a style I've had good luck with, and decided to try Lakefront's Fixed Gear American Red Ale despite not having had good experiences with Lakefront in the past. It's a very hoppy red with a lot of citrusy notes, and I really enjoyed it.

 

2nd on Smuttynose, it's easily overlooked by me and I usually go 2H, but Smutty is just an outstanding non sexy IPA.

 

I would say that Saisons/Farmhouse ales, as a style, would be a FOUND for me...I used to strictly go for a solid IPA, a IIPA, or a porter or stout...but recently I have been seeking out and enjoying Saisons and Farmhouse ales...

Given my love for IPAs though, I tend to look for hoppier versions of the sytle - so suggestions are welcome!

 

Tumbler came back and I enjoy it allot.

 

Pumple Drumkin from Cisco just hit the shelves again. I had forgotten about that beer. It's a great pumpkin beer.

 

I just had an Elysian Night Owl the other night. I forgot what a great pumpkin beer that is. Never had the Pumple Drumkin though.

 

Two Hearted.

Not worth, it, I poured it out after about three sips.

GROSS.

 

My son went to Cleveland over Labor Day weekend and I had him bring me back a case of Nosferatu...

I ♥ Nosferatu!

Leon was awesome, too bad I only have 2 bottles left for myself . . .
I was disappointed by new Belgium belgo ipa, not a bad beer, but it does not live up to its name

 

Seconded on Lakefront's Fixed Gear American Red Ale! That beer is fantastic.

 

Mine was Curmudgeon as well! In fact, it has me seeking out more Old Ale's, which has proven to be a tough task.

 

I got Stone IPA recently- first sixer in quite a while. I was intrigued by the new packaging and freshness dating, and saw that it was only a few weeks old. I gotta say, this may have been the best sixer of that beer that I have ever gotten, and it came very close to a fresh draught pint. Much enjoyment and fist-pumping ensued. Welcome back to my world, old friend, sorry it's been so long.
