arrogant bastard ale
yep, drinking arrogant bastard right now. last night, i went outside to take a leak - we are getting an additon on the house, and the new toilet isnt installed, yet they ripped our old toilet out - could have gone upstairs, but chose not to.. at anyrate, walk outside to piss, and forget that the last step off our new addition is about 15 inches, since it is not fully finished. turned my ankle, sprained the shit out of it, fell on my back, said the F word about 127 times, got some ice, advil, went to sleep. what does this have to do with this beer, you may ask yourself? that was last night. today it is still hurting, but hurting less thanks to the ale that is the arrogant bastard.
reddish color, tan head that goes to the bottom, states on the bottle: fizzy beer is for wussies, or something. yeah, if you are not willing to try beers that are beyond the typical macros in this country, you should avoid this one. for those with an open mind and a need for something more in their beer, this is a good starting point. pretty offensive hop flavor in it, but the malts balance the beer so much that you could almost gulp it. its fairly low ABV (7.2%) comes across a little stronger than you might think. ive caught a decent buzz thus far and i still have about half the bottle left.
comes in 22 oz bottles, this was 4.99. stone isnt distributed in all states, but i know its in TN, OH, NY, CA, CO, and some others. Got this one in TN.
pretty good stuff, should go pretty well with some spicy foods..
