    It was between parabola and sucaba. I went with the second, I haven't had yet and need to live vicariously through you :grinning:

    Show love to Indiana and drink a Cutters Empire Stout.

    I agree with Outbespoken. I don't know ANYTHING about the Indiana beer scene, but drink something from your home state. Just my opinion. I don't think much about milestones for the most part. I mean, I don't plan what beer to drink for a specific review. But I still agree with him.

    I was going at a similar pace, but then I stopped ticking crap from the macros as much. That and taking 18 credit hours this semester also doesn't help.

    It should. Your beer consumption should be doubled with those hours.

    My guess is a balanced, drinkable, and quality English-style, barrel aged strong ale.
    But what do I know? :wink:

    I would seriously downvote DDBA. It was my first taste of the Firestone barrel aged series and I was very disappointed... I thought it was sickeningly sweet with almost no compelling complexity at all. I'd say go with a more well established beer (aka any of the other ones). They're all complex and interesting, and you'll be able to use your 200th review to show how your palate and beer-reviewing abilities have developed

    50/50
    50% parabola
    50% sucaba

    Ya ya ya, you're all gonna say I'm crazy, tiiiiillll you try it.
    Plus this way you 200th review could be for essentially 3 beers.

    That's hardly crazy. You're creating a blend. Isn't that what Firestone does for their anniversary? ;-)

    Actually, I found this one pretty good for a 'Malt Liquor' it was very beer like, and not terrible.
