Looked for this at the wine company yesterday but couldn't find it. What type of brew is it? I'd like to try some.

Yesterday's celebratory bounty. Couldn't get through all of it!

FYI busy bee has this on draft right now

 

[michaelharrisco]

Crap I screwed up that quote... Was referring to the founder backwoods which busy bee has on draft right now. Better hurry though

 

[lt1fire]

That is currently on draft at growlers, world of beer, dillengers, and flying saucer in case any charlotte peeps are wondering.

 

[JohnVee]

Yes...I was wondering. Thanks, Al. Say goodbye to the rest of my sobriety for a while.

Triple C Smoke Amber. It was on Tap at Mac's Speed Shop. Really good and easy to drink. Too easy! I have also been enjoying some Thomas Creek Pumphouse Porter with this dip back into cold weather.

Picked this up on the way out to CO. Not bad, not bad at all.

That wasn't a bad pale ale either.



Well on Monday Brett, Cinder and I went on an epic beer day at 7 tap rooms or breweries. 8 if you count the loaded drink I had at the Breakfast cafe we started at.

First up

Avery Brewery

http://averybrewing.com/our-ales/

I had or tried these there

This last one I can't find a pic of till I upload it from my phone. It was only available at the brewery and was called Wee Turtles after grounds keeper willie and was a scotch ale

last one was a 16 percenter it was pretty bad ass

Next up was Boulder Beer Company

http://www.boulderbeer.com/

a copper ale

Kinda blue

and this good stout

Next was Oskar Blues

http://www.oskarblues.com/

Old Chub.... great scotch ale

Ten Fidy

Up next was Left Hand

http://www.lefthandbrewing.com/

Here I had Fade to black

Wake up the Dead Stout

After that we hit up the Cheeky Monk which is a bad ass tap room

Here we had a food break and I had an Irish Coffee to get a little boost and then had the MOTHER OF ALL IPAS

PLINY THE ELDER (haven't had one of these on tap since I left LA, so glad you could get it in boulder)

From here it was on to Great Divide Brewery

The Yeti had a Yeti

and then a Claymore

Last stop of the day was Denver Beer Company
http://denverbeerco.com/

Here had a lime wheat

and a graham cracker porter

Old Chub is my favorite. I had no idea this was such a cultured bunch.

When it comes to beer, we're quite refined!

 

[GLTHFJ60]

Jesus Al, I'm jealous!!

 

[mtweller]

Reminds me of the Hillsboro Hike - on steroids. I guess if you replaced all those beers with some domestic light beer, and the breweries were dive bars, they'd be exactly alike. Nice trek Yeti... and Bret.
