I'd also wager that my "perfect beer" will be a hoppy red, as my favorite beers (SN Celebration, Founders Red's Rye) have a much more substantial malt than many "paper-thin" IPAs that pour looking like a lager





I love red ales that taste like copper.




:yesnod: :drooling:

Lucky for me, it seems like hoppy reds are really starting to catch on. Red's Rye next year will be "Red's Rye IPA", Sierra Nevada replaced their fall seasonal Tumbler with "Flipside Red IPA", and O'Dell just released "Runoff Red IPA"

White (wheat) IPAs are another newly popular thing, super easy drinking and lets the candy/fruity flavors of the hops shine. New Belgium's new winter beer "Accumulation" and Deschutes "Chain-Breaker" for example.

Man, craft beer evolves at such a drastic pace it's hard to keep up at times. Can't imagine where the industry will be in 10 years.

This beer comes out once a year in the midwest (I think). Comes out around march and it's 15 for a 6 pack but it's one of my favorite beers ever, and I am not even a huge fan of hoppy beer.

Imagine an IPAs older brother and it clocks in at %10

I used to work a liquor store and this shit gets a straight craze. One guy came in and dropped 1.5 grand on almost all of our stock.

Sounds like he got a few cases :grin: Hopslam's the pinnacle of the "easy-drinking, strong, imperial IPA". It's the only popular one brewed with honey too, but a somewhat-comparable idea is Lagunitas Brown Shugga brewed with brown sugar (10% and goes down as easy as their 6% IPA)

It ships out to MI Monday, IL/MO/OH/KY/WI on the 13th, and to the rest of their distro on the 20th :dizope: Available now at the brewery

Damn, I love lagunitas. I thought they discontinued Brown Shugga.. I'll definitely be picking that one up.

This thread has got me craving beer and I devote my stomach to bourbon XD

most bar tenders that still use a 3 sink will use some of the house gin to moisten their hands after washing dishes.

but yea, it may work up intill the breath test.

Yeah it's weird. Gin by itself tastes bad to me, and so does tonic water, but combine the two, and it's the most delightful beverage. What alchemical wizardry is this shit?

Tanq Rangpur is distilled with ranqpur limes, which have the same flavor (terpene) as purple weed :dizope: :drooling: That fruity pebbles taste.

Tart of tonic+heat of booze= delicious :drooling: Club soda is great too if you want the flavor of a drink on the rocks that IMO almost tastes like straight liquor on the rocks. IME Making it last longer=drink slower= little safer for me, or especially anyone driving. Gin and tonics are easy to pound.

Disclaimer- I drink most everything with club soda these days, but occasionally still a gin and tonic. I also only drink ~200mL of liquor a week, and almost all neat bourbon/rye/scotch. Gin is a little rarer. Usually only 100mL on a couple ice cubes with ~50mL of scotch

Brown Sugar is :yesnod: Probably still on some shelfs! Is here at least
I think it was 2011? The replaced it with this incredibly easy-drinking 7.7% IPA called "Lagunitas Sucks (Brown Shugga Substitute)" :rofl: and it was back again for 2012

Since you mentioned :beer: :wink:
+:beer: Had this Founders Imperial Stout over the last ~1.5hrs (10.5% and goes down like ~7%)
and just cracked this
+:beer:
Just poured this maybe ~15min ago. Really sweet 8.5% IIPA, drinks as easy a sweet 6.2% Lagunitas IPA. Tastes dead on like a more brown-sugary (malt) tasting Hop Stoopid really IMO
:cheers:

not sure, but i remember reading tonic water use to have higher levels of quinine(now it has just enough for flavor, not medicinally significantly amounts) to fight against malaria, and they started cutting it with gin to make it taste better

after i reading that, i got an idea to make a joke trip report on erowid  for drugs ingested, gin 2oz and quinine unknown amount , but i never got around to it

It's wasn't by accident--them brits were some classy mofos back in the days of ol' fashioned colonial expansion--what better way to take a necessary medicine, than through a gin and tonic brought to you every afternoon by a little servant boy.
