Mass-produced lagers are often made with cheap, starchy adjuncts like rice and corn and even flavorings, and are honestly bland and devoid of almost any nutritional value … Craft beers for the most part are made with only malted barley, hops, yeast and water. They offer rich, full and diverse flavors and provide protein, potassium, niacin, folic acid, and B vitamins,” Thibodeau said.

It's wonderful as I've had it before, but it wasn't much more than a sip.

Had a White Russian Christmas last night. Just like a regular White Russian, but you also add in some peppermint schnapps. It was really good.

Drained the last growler of Oaked Arrogant Bastard at my brew pub. It it is a sad day.

On the bright side, there is a keg of Stone Russian Imperial Stout coming up.

check out this outlaw! lol

I love beers during the work day - over did it once and drank an entire pitcher of yuengling. I locked myself in my office when I got back and put on my best sober face. I didn't turn in any work that and the next day when I checked it, it had a shit load of mistakes ha.

I wear it for teh lulz, but if I'm drinking good beer, I don a monk's robe. Monks always knew how to make some good brew.

Gotta draw the line at shaving a bald spot in the middle of my head, though.

Seriously, though, I'll never get why enjoying quality makes one a snob. My taste in wine sucks, but I don't call wine connoisseurs snobs.

Or why don't I ever get called a cigar snob or Scotch snob?

Starting my 'vertical' a little early. Drinking my Stone VE 09-09-09 right now and liking it quite a bit. A very unique beer, like a belgian stout with strong chocolaty, fruity and hoppy flavors. I'd buy more of this if Stone brought it back as a seasonal.
