That would be a good question. With all the crap in my house, I have no pilsener or ale glasses. So I go at it the unrefined way, straight from the bottle to my mouth. This is going to change shortly. I am picking up the beer for the fishing trip, so I am going to get some new stuff to try. If they have this, I will get another one.

i need to do the same ...
chest freezers first, though ...
even that kit beer i made was pretty great ... pretty stoked to see what i can homebrew!
done well, a long time, although it continues to evolve in the bottles to varying extents ...
i think a year's not too much trouble in most cases, but i defer to any of the folks who know better ...
it was pretty exciting to drink it ... was better than i expected.

Got to love it when your local guy holds onto something for you...
It's awesome ... and now one of my fav stout, ever ...
Going to have another one of these tonight after my two Lagunitas IPA's.
I guess it's time here, too ...
rdwhah ...

At 10.6% ABV you can feel one of these after drinking it. 
What beer is that Grant?
Sorry if you already mentioned it and I missed it. I had the roughest physical labor work today of my life I think and I am 53!

it's a grapefruit honey ale (from brooklyn brew shop) ...
so, i dunno ... 32oz of <= 6.5% beer is actually a pretty reasonable serving as it turns out ...
i was a little apprehensive of buying the 32oz swing-top's instead of the 16oz ... but it makes bottling/handling a couple of gallons really simple, and on any given night where I want beer at all, 32oz is about right ...
i think i'll go ahead and pick-up a set of 16oz too, though ... for the bigger beers.

That stuff is *VERY* tasty (to me) ...
it reminds me a lot of that Founders Imperial stout. I love the texture. Its honestly like drinking a dessert.grantmichaels said:
I picked up a Hop Devil in a pick your own 6 today to try it out. I said I need to give IPAs a more concerted effort so i followed through.JayT said:
The initial bitterness of the first drink always takes me by surprise. But I have to say that it is pretty good. The IPAs with an overpowering coriander taste are ones that I will never be able to come around to. Which is funny, because I love cilantro.
Still looking for my gateway-to-IPA beer, too ...
