I'm all like this....

How is it?

It's actually pretty good and probably better than I expected. I'd say it's fairly fruity with a little bread. I don't think I taste any hops and it's not bitter at all. This is my first, and the only one I have, but it seems like a really nice summer beer that I'd definitely buy more of.

I've not seen it anywhere in Topeka. But, it is going to be the next beer I try.

The fruity you taste, is the hops. :thumb:

Rogue 5 Hazelnut Brown Nectar for me.

Loving this.

That could be, but I was thinking more orange or some shit. It doesn't seem to have the little hops smell or taste 80 acre does. 80 acre is one of my favorite regular summer beers and I think I'll add Zon to the regular summer list if I can find more of it.

There is probably some orange peel in the Zon as well but most of the citracy profile is hop flavor. Same for 80 Acre which is dry hopped with Nelson Sauvin hops. It is also one of my favorite beers.

I have a hoppy wheat beer I just kegged that is dry hopped with Cascade and Nelson Sauvin hops and you would swear it had grape fruit juice in it.

Tank 7 is an example of a beer with very fruity hops. Pretty amazing what different flavors hops can add, you then couple them with Belgian yeast and you can get really fruity spicy flavors.

It's a fine Merlot for me tonight... My oldest son just passed his Eagle board of review and is, perhaps, still the newest Eagle scout in this fine country...

LIKE!!!

Cantillon Kriek. It's good and so, so sour.

Rampant Imperial IPA ftw

A few different Blue Moons tonight out of the seasonal section.

You guys can pick the next beer if you'd like and I'll give some feedback:

Your call CC.

Well, I started with coke. It got a little strong so I cut it off at about 2. Then I had several shots of water. That got the old pecker a sprinkling. Now, obviously smashed and pissing clear I'm calling it a night.

Lots of free Boulevards last night.

I really enjoy the Short Straw quite a bit. Easily my favorite beer from them and one of my favorite beers period.

Yep. I always get a 'whiff of grapefruit' from Tank 7, one of my fave Blvd's.

I get that more so with 80 Acre.

I haven't tried 80 Acres yet. It's now on the 'to do' list.

You must get it done.

It's excellent. One of my favorites other than Tank 7.

THUNDER....THUNDER....THUNDERHOP IPA!!!!

Laying off the booze. Rocking some hydros tonight. Don't throw them away, mail them to me! :D

Nothing exciting tonight, just a few Coors Lights.

I like 80 even better than Tank 7, upon recent reflection.

Skol and tonics with a bit of lime.

A few beers, casual night at home.

Submitted for my approval.

Same here, I'd much rather have an 80 Acre over a Tank 7.

This.

I'm going to get message board raped, but I'm not a huge fan of Tank 7.

Meh. Its indisputably a great beer, but that doesn't mean you have to like it.

Who is happier than a camel on Wednesday when you think your out of beer and there is one left in the frige. Life is good.

Had a Miller High Life at Matt's Bar (Diners, Drive-ins and Dives) here in Minneapolis today (and a Jucy Lucy burger). Very awesome...

I had 1 Michelobe Ultra with dinner. My fat ass needs to get off the couch and get another one.

I enjoyed that one.

After trying a few different Blue Moons from the current seasonal batch, that's probably my favorite. Rounder belgium pale ale was also pretty good.

Still love a normal Blue Moon was an orange though. Just perfect.

OK, now I'm with you. I found a 6 at Walmart today and these taste a little different than the single I had. The smell and taste on these is more of a "hoppy" fruit and there is a hell of a lot more shit floating in them. Can't see through these at all. Bottle date says they're a month younger, but either way they're still pretty damn good. :thumb:

Trying Dead Guy Ale, Sam Adams Summertime Ale tonight.

I'm gonna say this is the best double IPA beer ever made. Heady Topper by Alchemist-Vermont

http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o...psdd16b8f3.jpg

http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o...ps629688d2.jpg

Bohemia and Carta Blanca beer.

Heady is awesome, enjoy it!

Did Old Fashioneds all night long with Woodford Reserve. All. ****ing. Night. Bad news is my brain is a little sluggish today. Good news is that work is WAYYYYY SLOOW this week. Best news, whole thing was a work expense. So that was a couple hundred bucks on the ol' expense account.

Depends, if I DVR the game and go fishing I’ve got a couple of Boulevard PA’s and some Miller Lite. If I stay home and watch the game in the man cave it’ll be Cuban Libres.

I went to Vermont back in June. Heady was quite good, but I found it overrated. I had a couple of double IPAs from Hill Farmstead that were better, IMO.

Sailor Jerrys rum, enjoying every drop right now.

LETS SEE BRAY

GREAT STUFF!

I know you say it's overrated but when one brewery only strives to make one beer and perfect it you have my attention. The grapefruit aftertaste also got my attention. Truly the most unique DIPA I've ever had. Living in Montana I'm exposed to plenty of IPAs and this one sticks out the most.

I only say overrated in terms of its ranking on Beer Advocate's Top 250 list. #1, btw. Out of all beers. The beer geek community is overrating it in my opinion.

That said, it is absolutely world-class. There's only a tiny handful of double IPAs I've liked more.

Man, this bottle of Eagle Rare I bought yesterday is goooooood, especially for the price.

Art of Neurosis from 2nd Shift Brewery, then on to Two Hearted Ale.

Are you still in Bama? I'd love to get together and sample brew with you.

No homo.

Angry Orchard

Hamm's the beer refreshing....

Captain Morgan, and LOTS of it!!!

natural light. Stayin' classy fellas and fellettes,

You are a stud... I suspect you have a huge dick and missed you calling to star in porn flicks!

Yeah, man. I still live in Tuscaloosa. Why...are you visiting the state right now?

The Captain for me...

AAAARGHHHH MATEY! Thar be bad decisions in thar!

Yes, yes there is.... But now I can blame them on the contents of the bottle and its maker when I look in the mirror and am honest with myself! ROFL

Picked up the Boulevard sampler with their Westside Rye Ale and Mid-Coast IPA in it. Doing a little preheat at crib before seeing Havok tonight \m/

VVK gentlemen. Always.

Heading to a wedding with open bar. Drink of choice? Everything.

Speaking of, those samplers don't seem to be coming to Alabama. I might need someone to ship me a Westside Rye & a Mid-Coast IPA.

The Alex Tanney Crow Drink.

nice.havok is some solid thrash. oh yea... I will be drinkin some sierra nevada summerfest.

Sweet Tea Vodka with a slice of lime. It's hot as **** here today!

https://www.mrkegs.com/images/seagramssweettea.jpg

Dry Tanqueray martini with two blue-cheese-stuffed olives.

Boulevard Pale Ale to go with hot wings for dinner.

Going to a get Bloody Mary when get to the bar.

I really like it. It tastes just like tea when mixed with water and also mixes well with 7-up. Can get dangerous so switching to beer after a few of them.

And yea...hot as shit here for the past few days!

I've always liked Smithwick's. Having one now, watching the Royals. Going to need more as I am watching the Royals.

http://thedish.restaurant.com/wp-con...smithwicks.jpg

I made a Boulevardier for the first time last night (Basically a bourbon version of a Negroni). 1.25 oz. Bourbon, 1 oz Campari, 1 oz sweet vermouth (I used the King of vermouths: Carpano Antica). It was tremendous. A new favorite cocktail to make at the house.

hell yea...smithwicks is one of my absolute favorites on draft.

Beer. Nice sitting outside weather here.
