Support your local breweries! Find out where they are and go hang out in their tasting rooms and fill some growlers. :toast:





This. Unless you are drinking above 8% freshness is a major factor.
Also your local brewery needs you. If nobody buys locally made high quality beer, we will never get rid of this swill made from corn and rice that the macro breweries are calling beer.

Try some of the Russian Imperial Stouts from Firestone Walker.



:whathesaid:




:puke:



Firestone Walker has a good barrel program.

Parabola is a world class BBA Stout.
Im hoping to find a few bottles of Velvet Merkin soon.

Can't go wrong with Firestone Walker wherever you are. But, if you're in the Midwest like me, I'd check the dates on the IPAs which are much, much better fresh.

Russian Imperials are (usually) too sweet for me. I'm very partial to scotch ales for my maltier beers. Unfortunately they aren't nearly as popular, and outside of Founders (which doesn't distribute to TX IIRC) they are few and far between.
I do enjoy a great stout from time to time, almost always barrel-aged.

Dragon's Milk is IMO a great year-round barrel stout I have every once in a while, but again I'm not sure the New Holland brewery distributes to TX.

I drink IPAs most frequently as they are refreshing all day, every day, but I sit down with a couple maltier beers once or twice a week.
Usually some scotch ales (Founders dirty bastard, and soon Backwoods Bastard :grin:), maybe a strong ale/barleywine (Stone's Double Bastard is a great one out now), maybe even a nice stout.
:thumbup::thumbup: if any of the above are barrel-aged.

A lot of double/imperial IPAs have a very decent malt backbone to boot IMO.
I have a few friends that will drink Enjoy By and Hop Stoopid at every chance I offer, but not dare ask for a Sierra Nevada Torpedo :lol:.
Speaking of, Stone's next Enjoy By shipped out yesterday :grin:

If you want a nice refreshing lager, I'm partial to Anchor Steams offerings. Shiner bock and their black lager are pretty good too IMO.

Parabola is one of my favorites, but really hard to find.  When it comes in they only get a couple cases and it sells out fast.

Much better than velvet merlin IMHO

I really don't like their DBA (double barrel ale).  Tastes like ground up bugs or something to me.

I've apparently never had the regular DBA (english pale ale), but the BA-english barleywine "Double Double barrel ale" is a helluva beer. I generally won't touch english barleywines unless they're barrel-aged, and even then they are hard for me to get down unless they have some age on them.
I get flashbacks to being constantly sauced, drinking 99c 12.2% camo cans


:puke:
I mean, there's your good lager, OP :tongue2:

No check out the "Post your beer" thread in the Beer forum.
40 pages and growing of quality beer and beer talk.

Never seen it, but from what I can tell about it by reading the web page I think I would like it.

I am currently in Mexico and there is no beer here.  All the beer tastes pretty much the same, except for Sol which everyone hates.    Stouts are really hard to find here and are usually imported.

Well, I like fresh Tecate more than any other AAL :lol:
I like negra modelo all right too :thumbup:

Shame about the lack of beer though :sad:

Not nearly the same thing, but I was REALLY pleasantly surprised at how much great beer was in New Mexico, and AFAIK only in New Mexico. I think La Cumbre brewery is now distro'ing to Colorado, though. :drooling:

Speaking of good stouts, Perennial's Abraxas is 2 days away :grin: :drooling:
I'm a much bigger fan of the barrel-aged version, but you can't beat great local brews


@Watermelon mon
Definitely check out the beer forum :thumbup: you'll have a completely different selection of beer being in Canada but there is some world-class stuff being brewed up there.

Duvel

La Chouffe

Any kind of Leffe

Link are to the breweries and their history. Leffe have your pick :smile:.

Remember that this is real beer though La chouffe is leaning a bit more to the "sweeter" side if you must:smirk:
