Picked up two of these this week...Hopefully I live another ten years when I open it. [emoji38]
I have one being sent to me. Excited to try it.

Did anyone try the cherry, coconut, coffee and barrel-aged cold smokes this week?


Had the blueberry lactose IPA from smelter in anaconda this last weekend. And the guava gose. They were good. Surprised something good came out of anaconda.

Those sound intriguing!

The imagery this thread invokes with all you well-healed bastards talking about the Hun's Purity Laws and digestive problems when it comes to beer.

I can imagine the low rumbling of a built big-block 383 as it idles outside your homes at dawn, under the hood of Booby Dildo's Dodge Powerwagon. In the box of the truck, Snap impatiently awaits any sign of life outside your homes to start winging freshly emptied PBR bottles at your heads while questioning your manhood. In a blink of the eye, the assault is over as the 60 series bias-ply tires squeal to life. You`re left on the ground of your front lawn wondering what a cold pack of Schmidt is going for these days.
:clap:
I don't hand these out. That one gets it. POTY nom.
Solid top to bottom.

A much-needed dose of reality, Ursa. Thank you. It's not hard to imagine Titleist, PeauxRouge and the rest of these fruit-beer drinking rollerbladers kicking back with a huckleberry/pomegranate Gose and tapping their feet to the milquetoast vibe of "Casino Royale" by Herb Alpert. Ugh.

You're a terrible human. Get back to your White Claws!

Had to google "White Claws"...that shit looks fantastic! Got about a case/case-and-a-half of Zima to throw back, but I'll definitely be checking out WC ASAP! Thanks for the hot tip, Mr. T! :thumb:

I tried the barrel aged Cold Smoke and it was pretty good. It actually made Cold Smoke drinkable.

Not a single one of those is worth drinking, thread continues, enough said.
 
Been casually following this thread ... just to get some possible ideas. Seems clear by now that tastes in beer differ too much to ever reach a consensus. And here's another point: "It depends" ... upon the situation. Say it's a baking hot day and you've been ripping dead bushes from your back lot -- well, even a wimpy Bud Light is going to taste pretty good.

So I gave up on that, but here's my favorite beer story (in a nutshell). Back when I had a "day job," I made a trip to Vienna, Austria (presentation to the IAEA, if you're interested). One evening we went pub-hopping with a guy (American) who'd spent about five years there ... and he knew all the good places. Every place we visited (and there were more than five) had its own beer, brewed on the premises or by special order locally. And every one of the beers was outstanding ... different, but outstanding. Pretty much heaven for a beer junky.
 
1. Headwall IPA - Tamarack
2. Lagunitas Sucks - Lagunitas
3. Lagunitas Waldo's Special Ale - Lagunitas
4. Alien Amber - Roswell Brewing
5. Festivus Ale - 2nd Street Brewing Co. (Santa Fe, NM)
 
snap wouldn't waste an empty PBR *can* aka "silo" on such dishonorable pursuits.

The 335 hp of the stock 383 in most of those years made for a monster in sound only. Most Mopar guys threw those in the recycle bin and dropped in a 440. I have a small-block 350 Chevy for instance, with 50 more hp, factory, in a much lighter vehicle with lower gears. Booby and snap
have argued about this for years, small vs big block, hp vs torque. He actually drives an '04 Forester right now.

FYI

Guinness
Flathead Cherry Sour
Bayern Amber
Moose Drool
Axe Handle IPA

I appreciate Rheinhesgoboht purity bets, and experimental beers equally. Wish I were oin Missoula to try Tyne various cold smoke varietals, especially the barrel aged version.

Goses are fantastic, and I believe fall under German purity laws.

Gose's are great summer beers. Otra Vez from Sierra Nevada this year... whooboy, gonna drink a lot of those this summer.

I have been looking for those here in Montana and couldn’t find them at all last summer. Great brew.

I know what you are saying but if it is so dam hot out that you feel like killing yourself with mass produced slop, don't. Every local brewery makes some version of Pilsner/lager that is 100x better then bud/coors/miller. Not too mention they are your neighbors, not South Africans or Belgians.

Well, you have a point. And actually, I don't give the mass-produced crap space in my frig. But if you're cooked and someone hands you one, you're not going to turn it down. ;)

In my opinion, these aren't even The best beers made by each of those breweries.

Word. The two best types of beer: free and cold.

Bingo! :thumb:

Another favorite beer story. The setup: My Ph.D. research prof spent a sabbatical at Oxford. He's a beer guy too. Story happened at a faculty–grad student mixer (long time ago, as you might guess):

My Prof: All the pubs in England have very good beer.

Another prof: Yeah, but I hear they serve it warm.

My Prof: Not quite. They serve "room temperature" beer. By no stretch is that "warm." ;)
