The Perfect Brew........!

[Black Dog]

He lives in west-central Nebraska, and one of the liquor stores there has a pretty good selection of craft beer. I forget what the label was on the beer but it was ok at first and then I couldn't finish it. Even the chile in the bottle when we pulled it out had an aweful taste of chemicals and garbage and the hotness of the chile tasted artificial. I think that stuff is more of a novelty meant for frat boys to show off to sorority girls with.

I'm an avid homebrewer. Any others here? Had to crack the lid on my fermenting coffee oatmeal stout last night so I took a picture. It'll look better in the end.

If my engel/twozone tailgate kegerator plan ever sees the light of day I'll definitely have to write it up on here.

I'm also thinking that "Modus Hoperandi" is the most outrageous and perfect name for a beer within this thread!

Carry On!....:friday:

I like being a beer geek. Last night in the grocery store I was deciding on a brew for this week and there was a yuppy looking guy with one of the store employees, and the guy was really frustrated that the store didn't have any wheat beer. But literally right in front of him there was Belgian White, Shock Top, Blue Moon, and a couple others, all wheat beers.

Thanks for the welcome. Homebrew was so frothy it blew the lid on my fermenter. Hungry bugs!

Seems like distributing in cans is more popular in CO than CA. I like it.

All hail to the GUBNA!

Oskar Blues is a local brewery/pub here in Boulder Colorado area. They have of the best beer around. My favorite is the Gubna, 10% ABV! Here is the link to their site http://www.oskarblues.com/the-brews/gubna. If you have the opportunity to try any of their brews please do you will enjoy. They also make Gordon, Dale's Pale Ale, Old Chub, Mama's Lil Pils, and many more. All great, all available in a can. :coffeedrink:

I just picked my ingredients for a coffee stout!

 

[1speed]

Bell's Expedition Stout.

Perfect name, perfect label. I nominate this as the "Official ExPo Beer"! :beer:

10.5% alcohol, unlimited shelf life (can age it like a wine), thickest, darkest, stoutest (is that a word?) beer I've ever had.

It's seasonal and expensive at $16.99 a six pack, but worth every penny.

Alaskan Amber ******

Alaskan Amber ******

I am very curious about that beer. Guy came into my old work and back of his Dodge (which he drove from Alaska to NC for daughter's wedding) was 24 pack of that.

 

[ss_storm]

Alaskan amber is pretty fantastic
BUT
the Alaskan Oatmeal stout is amazing. (seasonal)

 

[Ala5ka]

you should try it from tap...no comparison, it was my first drink upon turning 21

PS you can now buy Alaskan Brewing products from Safeway, or order their Smoked Salmon Vodka online. You cannot get their glacier water Vodka outside of Alaska which is one of the most pure products in the world, Alaskan brewing is considered the great American import
