A Silky American Stout delicately aged in 2005 Bourbon barrels for approximately 60 days. The malt sweetness is perfectly balanced by the roast barley and a nice hint of bourbon flavor and aroma. The bourbon barrel stout was first brewed December 22, 2005.


I had this at Fredericksburg Pub in Fredericksburg VA...outstanding beer. Very high alcohol content and they wont sell it in SC. Pub imported entire bar from britain...run nitrogen in lines...clean them every month completely. Plus bartenders and waitresses all wear Catholic School Girl short short skirts for women. For Brian, the guys are in kilts...hahahahahaha





Did anyone catch the Brewmaster show on Discovery done by guy from Dogfish Head Brewing Company...last night they poured $500,000 worth of 120 IPA down the floor drain.

Sounds like a flying saucer style place..... besides the kilts.

If you are ever in the Salisbury area, I highly suggest making a stop at Salty Caper: Welcome

This brick oven pizza joint is not your ordinary pub. Andy, the manager, always has unique beers on tap or RARE beers in bottle. Last week I enjoyed two of "Wake Up Dead Imperial Stouts" from Left Hand Brewery. YUM.

That sounds really cool.

This one fits in many categories, but I'll post here. I saw a heep advertising this website on my way up to New Jersey for Thanksgiving and had to check it out.

Arctic Alchemy - Discoveries of the Red Hand

Seems they're doing(have done) a documentary on an expedition motorcycle trip up to North Canada to brew a batch of this beer, and tell the history of it along the way..

Best of both worlds...

God damn, I love beer. Where to start...

After sampling many types of beer throughout college, including Pabst and Keystone in various forms , I have decided that my favorite genre is the India Pale Ale. I have had a pretty decent number of them. Here are a few of my favorites:

Most recently I've had the Breckenridge 471 IPA. Without a doubt, the most flavorful IPA I've ever had. Deep earthy flavors, slight hint of malt and moderate hoppiness in the taste, earthy aroma, slighty bitter aftertaste. Delicious:
471 IPA - Breckenridge Brewery - CO - BeerAdvocate

Dogfishead 120 Minute IPA
Strongest IPA I've had to date. Extremely hoppy, high alcohol content. A 6 pack would do me in for a night:
120 Minute IPA - Dogfish Head Craft Brewery - Milton, DE - BeerAdvocate

Long Hammer IPA
Traditional BIG American IPA. Always a solid choice.

This has been my favorite of late. Dogfish Head pulled out of Indiana altogether. That sucked, as it was one of my favorite breweries.

Is it bad I go to most places and can't find a beer I haven't had now??

Southerntier 2X IPA. Best IPA out! I love IPA's. Jonny, never knew they had the 120 minute, must be sold in 2's cause the 90 minute is amazing and I buy it in 4 packs

 

[lt1fire]

I'm starting to feel a little IPA'd out.

Right now i've moved on to belgiums for a while and then i'll most likely hit something else as my fall back beer.

 

[custyota]

I don't like real strong beer. All I kind find here in cali r ipa and stouts. Did have a tangerine flav wheat beer from lost coast brewing that was good.

 

[JohnVee]

Gotta give a shout out to some locals - Queen City Red from Four Friends Brewing, a good Irish red ale. Hafta go check my recycling bin to jog my memory on what else I've been drinking. Lots of Stouts and Porters.

Stopped by the Triangle Wine Company today at the corner of McCrimmon and Davis. Holy crap do they have a huge selection! They even have beer on tap for you to enjoy while browsing
Google Maps

I picked this 6er up to enjoy on this relaxing evening. Pretty mild for a high percentage beer. Not bad at all, but I'm not sure I'd buy it over Dog Fish Head 90 or 120 min.
