RaoulDuke79 Posted June 9, 2017 Author Posted June 9, 2017 Bought a case of Dogfish Head Flesh Nd Blood last week. Working on finishing it up. Pretty good stuff. On a side note my wallet is taking a beating on the craft beer as of late. Picking up a half barrel of Budweiser Saturday
RaoulDuke79 Posted June 22, 2017 Author Posted June 22, 2017 Picked up a case of Troegs Nimble Giant. Had it once last year and was amazed. Had to pay cash, as I can have no paper trail of this for the wife to see. Gonna try and ration to the best of my ability.

YoloinOhio Posted June 24, 2017 Posted June 24, 2017 (edited) Not sure if this has been mentioned but had Silversmith in the Falls in March and want to buy some when I'm back in the area. Anyone know where I can buy it? Only in Canada? Edited June 24, 2017 by YoloinOhio
Kirby Jackson Posted June 24, 2017 Posted June 24, 2017 No gose fans, eh? Hm. I had a Watermelon Gose from Terrapin on Wednesday. I like Terrapin as a brewery but wasn't a fan of the Watermelon Gose.
Kirby Jackson Posted June 24, 2017 Posted June 24, 2017 Not sure if this has been mentioned but had Silversmith in the Falls in March and want to buy some when I'm back in the area. Anyone know where I can buy it? Only in Canada?There are some apps like "Tap Hunter" that can be useful. I don't find them to be great because they have a limited number of places. If I want something that is a little hard to find I either go to place that I know has a large beer selection (usually looking for like 200+ beers) and check online to see if they have it. I may even call. I also go to that craft beer store that I keep plugging and talk to the owner. They ar really plugged in as to what's where and what's coming out. As an example, Parish is the best brewery in Louisiana. They are pretty small still though and excel on hoppy beers. Their most recent batch of Opus Vert (one of their best) is supposed to have made its way here last week. I haven't seen it anywhere except on tap at a couple of the "beer" bars. I'm going to watch LSU - Oregon State this afternoon and put back a couple of those. As an aside, Parish did their release for "Ghost in the Machine" yesterday (or Thursday I can't remember). At any rate, it's a GREAT beer if you can get your hands on it. https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/24822/113403/ It is not easy to find. Lastly, I would be interested in doing some trading on some of these if anyone is interested? We are all in different parts of the country and can come across some pretty good stuff. My brother-in-law and uncle are beer geeks and we send around different stuff that we can get our hands on that others can't.
RaoulDuke79 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Posted September 10, 2017 (edited) Stopped by the Troegs brewery in Hershey today and picked up some LaGrave. Good way to wind down the day with some college football. Edited September 10, 2017 by RaoulDuke79
Kirby Jackson Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 I'm having a Great Raft "Grace & Grit" at the moment. It's a really nice double IPA. This was a really good batch. https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/33324/107719/ I also have DDH Envie in my fridge at the moment. I get some whenever I see it. https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/24822/257387/
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 Had some pineapple sculpin from ballast point the other day. Was underwhelmed.
flomoe Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 If anyone is into the Oktoberfest beers at this time of year, this years Sierra Nevada version is absolutely delicious. It's a "one-time" collaboration and Worth a try!
RaoulDuke79 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Posted September 10, 2017 Had some pineapple sculpin from ballast point the other day. Was underwhelmed. I love that stuff. Generally only get it for special occasions though. $60 a case isn't good fornthe wallet.

Yo no se Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 Just picked up WGRs 550 game time. I must say I'm pretty underwhelmed.
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 I love that stuff. Generally only get it for special occasions though. $60 a case isn't good fornthe wallet. For having the name "pineapple" in it, it doesn't even have the slightest hint of it. I figured it would balance the hops a bit, but nothing.
Buffalo Barbarian Posted September 10, 2017 Posted September 10, 2017 Thought this was about BeerBall.
Fan in San Diego Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 "you can have any beer you want....as long as its a corona" That used to be my beer. Sometimes miss having one.
