I have had all of these GS.
Several are very good.

Nice collection! Which is your favorite PMD? Never seen half of those, didn’t realize there were so many. The Imperial Red was good, wondering which I should buy next hop Stoopid or Maxiumus.
I'll take your advice this time. Just don't tell me how to raise my kids.TNKS said:
I really like Hop Stoopid Ale and the Nightime Ale but I think its seasonal, not sure.Grass Snake said:
Victory Brewing Dirtwolf is now my current fave IPA/double IPA.
Ask me tomorrow, and my fave will probably change.

I drink two Lagunitas IPA's a day and although it's not the best IPA out there it is still not bad for $24 a case at Costco.

The standard to which all others are to be compared in my humble opinion. It's not an "IPA" but it is an American Strong Ale which is similar. Maybe one of our resident brew-masters could enlighten us on the differences.
No Clear bottles
No Green Bottles
No Twist tops
No ABV below 6%
Malty,Hoppy etc the more you venture into particular brew styles the further you advance your "taste" preferences.
What taste good "ice cold" may taste better up around 50*F(warmer)
Yes I know that scares the shit out of people in the States that all believe that beer needs to be near ice to be "good".
Aint so,"ice cold" generally applies to shit domestic brews that taste like ass the warmer they get
Well crafted beers demand more respect and understanding by the drinker
Myself "personally" approach high ABV and IBU brews towards the warm side of 45-50*F
Most always they shine well above the low 34* of US expectations
You just have to be adventurous and own a decent temp gun
Study brew styles,get an understanding of hoppy verses malty,learn the difference between Lager,Stout,IPA etc
THEN BY A SHIT TON OF BEER and start testing it on you mouth
Like the finest of wines around the world,awesome beer IS NOT to be drank "ICE COLD"
FWIW,there isnt a "wine" on this planet I would give a second look to
B E E R .....is where its at!(really)

A growing local brewery is putting IPA in a can. My initial thought was this is a joke, but I'm curious, so I'll probably pick some up soon. What do you guys think?
I dig this in a can....
It is very much so! They make damn good beers and all in cans.TNKS said:
