I'm bringing Sam Smith Taddy Porter to an Olympic party tomorrow. I know they will have SS oatmeal stout, pale ale & nut brown ale there also.

Conway's Irish Ale tonight. No idea how or why but I found some in my closet. Chilling right now. This should be interesting.

Had Weyerbacher Whiskey Barrel Aged Imperial Brown Ale last night. It was awesome. Monk's Tripel by Abbey was also a highlight of the evening.

Goose Island makes some decent stuff, wish they wouldn't have sold to Inbev though.

I concur...and that's why I don't drink them anymore. (Not that I ever drank a lot of them in the past years)

It's all over the place, you don't need to pick up Goose Island in Chicago. You need to pick up Three Floyds over there.

The Alphadog was light on the taste. It was ok, but nothing special, wouldn't buy it again. First Golden Monkey on the way....

Started with Brooklyn East India Pale Ale. Shared this with The Wife as we were waiting for some beers to chill. Moved on to a couple of Summer Shandys. Went back to the Brooklyn and it just tasted weird. Ended up finishing the night with a couple of Perpetuals.

I've always liked the Brooklyn IPA in the past, but I've found as of late if you have something flavorful before one the Brooklyn changes flavor and tastes weak. Same thing happened when I had some Two Hearted before it the other night. Seems like this has become a drink this beer only type of beer or drink it first.

Troegs Perpetual IPA for me today.

But while at the store, I remembered to get some photographic proof of something I mentioned about a month ago...

JAFB trip complete. Had the Wooster Paved IPA, Wayne County Cream Ale, and All Wooster New Stout. (5.2, 5.7, and 6.4 respectively). Damn good, fresh stuff. Pictures below are the cream ale, and IPA with my wife in the background, and the stout all by itself.
