Let's get this NYE started right.
Very good. I taste chocolate more than maple, but I likey.
May have to grab another one at the store.

 
Smoked rye porter with maple syrup. What's not to like?
I checked their distribution, and they are supposed to be available in the Chicago area.
Says that it pairs well with BBQ, so I know just where to go and try it the next time I'm there.

Yeah 4Hands is based out of St. Louis.

Starting today this tasty brew is $12.00 a rack of six,Im gonna miss it . . . . . . (the beer wars have begun)

Extremely fruity aroma. Pretty tasty. I still want more of Ska Brewing's Rudie though.

 

[Ozzy2001]

That's crazy.

 

[D3monic]

It's really, really, good. I highly suggest it. Going to try their Modus Hoperandi next.

Definitely good, but I want another Rudie.


This probably has some simcoe and or Amarillo hops. If I hadn't just had the Rudie I would probably say this is great.

 
I have a can of this in my folley pack in the fridge. I didn't see the rudie there.

You all should try Caldera Brewing's IPA.  It may have been mentioned before in the previous 99 pages, but hey! 
 
If you like citrusy beers with not a whole lot of malty flavor this one is great!  

 

[Ozzy2001]

Interesting taste on this one.

 

[Ozzy2001]

Not bad, not great though.  Smells really good.

Fortunately, I bought the last 6er of Rudie at the liquor store.  If I have another tonight, I'll have one of those.

time to DRINK

 

[grantmichaels]

from when I wake up, until at least about 4 hours later, the rest is game ...

 

[Ozzy2001]

Best peanut butter flavored beer I've had yet.

Really tasty. I may buy some more.

 

[grantmichaels]

I'd try it ... but I'm finding that I'm losing the taste for dessert-themed beers of late ... even the good one's =(

 

[The Hot Pepper]

Gettin kinda crazy with beers like that... Kitchen Sink beer.

 

[grantmichaels]

They were the only beer I liked getting going, so I feel a bit hypocritical, but I haven't been enjoying them as much for a month or so now ...

I blame DIPA's ...

 

[grantmichaels]

A personal favorite right meow ...

Coconut for sure, but finishes like a good toasty, dark beer ...

 

[The Hot Pepper]

Drinking:

Coney Island
 
Overpass IPA
 
Very good reminiscent of Sculpin Grapefruit but the citrus notes are from the hops but super grapefruity imo, good stuff.
 

 

[grantmichaels]

Sounds good ... I just scoured the net to see if I could find out the hops, but couldn't ...
 
There's a lot of hops w/ those flavors, now, anyways ...
