I was kidding about the Everclear, lol

I agree, had some last week.

I've got a guy in Chicago sending me some GI Bourbon County Brand Stout in a couple days; cannot wait to try it!

I have a friend that has a DFH 120 pack. I'll be paying him a visit this evening, I think.

I was looking for a box around the office, opened up a cabinet that's been next to my desk for 2 months. Open it up, BAM! Lagunitas Imperial Stout bomber sitting there with dust on it. No idea who's it was, but it's mine now.

Reps, Ten Fidy FTW. Deviant Dales is also great. Their flagship is pretty damn good too actually.

Worst. Beer. Store. Ever.

Wish you guys knew the Indiana town I was in right now. PURE white trash town. Only good thing (ONLY) was a 6er of Fat Tire. Rest was Busch Light and liquor. Can't believe I drove out if my way for a god damn 6er of fat tire!

Ten Fidy is incredible. It's basically alcoholic motor oil. I've liked their other things as well.

New Castle or Smithwicks for me. Although George Killians is right on par.

Does anyone here drink a Euro beer called Strongbow? I have a friend who went to Ohio State who said everyone down there drank it. I tried it once at Eleven on High Street. The beer tasted like it was concocted out of capri suns, starbursts and no beer. Mitt Romney would love it. To each his own, I guess.

Strongbow is in my realm of drinking, not the manly men on here. It's an English dry cider. I personally like Angry Orchard and Woodchuck better, but can get by with Strongbow. Definitely not a beer.

I picked up a sixer of Saranac pumpkin ale (I've probably drank damn near a hundred of those this football season), a 4-pack of Sixpoint Autumnation and a bottle of Woodchuck Private Reserve Pumpkin and a Great Divide Hibernation Ale.

Ah. And funny you should mention Woodchuck. That is my friend's other favorite "beer." Haha. Since I am not familiar in the slightest with those varieties of drinks, apparently like my friend, I just wasn't sure how to actually define it. It's been awhile since I had it and I just heard it mentioned today so I thought I would see what others thought.

Yeah, those are all hard ciders. Woodchuck and Strongbow are the 2 most popular as Angry Orchard just came out this year, but those are my types of drinks. Woodchuck and Angry Orchard are both sweeter but to me they cover the alcohol taste as I just don't like any regular beer.

I keep being told I need to try Woodchuck. I might just do that now the next time I am out somewhere that has it.

Crispin is probably my favorite cider, not sure if you can get it in Ohio or not.
