What beer are you drinking now? #685

Nightcap. Founders Curmudgeon. Always a pleasure.....

 

Welcoming Boulevard to NJ. Cheers!!!

 

In the glass at the moment you ask? Spiteful's newest creation, Whale Tickler. A 9.2% mango infused IPA that's crack. It's tropical, citric and addictive. Dangerous as a matter of fact.



@jhartley has me jamming to some old school joints I haven't heard in ages...but between those offerings plays Mastodon.

 

Goose Island Bourbon County barleywine. I swear it gets better every time I drink it. Obviously opinions vary.

 

bummer - I have a bottle in my fridge, I was looking forward to it my first three floyds anything...

 

Tonight, I drink to my financial situation, with an appropriately named beer.

 

Full Pint Rye Rebellion. Shared with the wife... she chugged her half. Damn good.

 

As IF!

 

Boundary Bay IPA from the cask.

 

Extra in a recent trade in the glass my wife bought me on our honeymoon.....anyone know if Granville island beers are available in the states (Pacific Northwest maybe?) if so it can trade lots of CCB for some.

 

A little coffee - vanilla Narwhal +

 

Cheers, sir

 

Next up, and this isn't bad at all. Nice crisp taste.

 

What did you think? I thought it was horrible. Especially for a $20 BBA Imperial Stout.

 

When the palate is wrecked ..... reset the senses by returning to an original

Don't move back up the ladder until you are in sync with simple beer greatness. I haven't been down this road in awhile, and I needed it. Many, many cheers BAs!

Oops I almost posted the Elvis here, but keeping in theme with my 'originals' request above, I must pay homage to the real master here:

.... 'hound broke down ......

 

Heard that about the first beer more than once...

 

Not horrible. Meh. Expected more. Definitely not worth the price and would not purchase again.

 

Aecht Schlenkerla Urbock. Cheers!

 

Great beer to start with, never fails!

 

Holy shit! Is that a Penny Racer? Haven't seen one of those in years!

 

Goose Island Big Muddy Imperial Stout, drinkable enough, but hope they aren't shorting us on BCBS for this one...

 

You know who I hate? The "I post another picture of the same bomber just to post more music that probably no one will listen to anyway," BA.

 

I really want to crack this bad boy:



But after some hoppy IPAs/DIPAs, I think I'm gonna go with this instead:

 

One of my favorites! Cheers, indeed.

 

I say the same thing every time I move a couch.

 

Pour numero dos of Whale Tickler. Quote from bottle:

"Late hours spent on trade forums.
ISO: whalez
FT: whalez
The thrill of the hunt.
At last it's mine!
Tickle now or tickle later?
Maybe never.
Whale ticklers, drink this on your hunt..."

 

Opening an official birthday beer

 

Whale tickler, is that like the French tickler?

 

Michigan beer...



paired with a Michigan artist. I saw this guy in 1985 in Cedar Rapids, IA, and I fought my way to the front on the floor. He opened for Aerosmith.
\m/ BA!

 

The BA version. Yes. Good call.

Spiteful brews the BA version of the French Tickler while Mikkeller tends to brew BA versions of the Cleveland Steamer.

 

I swear, every time I get a craving for Gandhi, a box shows up on my doorstep from @Roguer. Here's to telepathy, my friend!

 

Zona beer still drinking good after two weeks (he-he).

 

A little on the bland side.

 

Yeah, but bigger.

 

hi Boundary Bay Imperial Oatmeal Stout worth Baskets and Mash, at Boundary Bay Brewery.

 

My wife just slayed the other Zombie from Prager62 (she's loves 'em as much as I do), went with "Plan B".



@Prager62 and @bstyle for the glassware!!

 

This sounds like a fantastic superpower to possess.
