I agree with this. A have a friend who always wants to homebrew, I'm like why spend the time to mess it up when there are so many quality beers out there to try.Curly J;1198330 wrote:Actually I appreciate his brewing knowledge as I don't home brew. People say it's enjoyable, and I could see why as I somewhat tried it once. For me it's too much work. I figure I'll buy my beers and support the hard work of others in the Craft beer industry.

Yes. I know I had Cardinal Ale of theirs before but I can't remember anything about it. I just remember cleaning that label off for my brewing. I'll have to give it another try.Curly J;1198978 wrote:Anyone had anything from Ohio Brewing Company? I don't believe I ever have.

Goose Island Juliet; let me know if it's worth dropping $15 a bomber on.Curly J;1198936 wrote:Found the beer list for the Jungle Jim's Beer Fest I'll be hitting this weekend. (Both Days) Any suggestions ??? --> http://www.junglejims.com/beerfest/pdfs/beerlist.pdf

Not $15, in my opinion. Only GI brew I would have paid that for is Night Stalker, but since that has been discontinued ... no Goose Island for me.BORIStheCrusher;1199024 wrote:Goose Island Juliet; let me know if it's worth dropping $15 a bomber on.

I had Night Stalker twice and remember liking it but not being very impressed; kind of thin and boozy. I like most of their Belgian line; been picking up Fleur a few times lately and I have a 2 year old bottle of Pepe Nero on the shelf. Read good things about Juliet but I'm trying to cut back on spending, and that would be the complete opposite lol.O-Trap;1199074 wrote:Not $15, in my opinion.

I like a little boozy for some of my stouts, hence my love for Dragon's Milk. You can about taste the whiskey from the barrels.BORIStheCrusher;1199108 wrote:I had Night Stalker twice and remember liking it but not being very impressed; kind of thin and boozy.

Love arrogant bastard. One of my favorites for sure, with Double Bastard being a top 10, maybe 5 beer for me. You won't be disappointed.
Oddly enough I had some arrogant bastard tonight.

That's a pretty good description for Dragon's Milk. Picked this up for the first time last winter. Besides Alltech Bourbon Barrel Ale, this was one of my first tastes of a barrel aged beer. At the time thought the whisky flavor was overpowering, but since have had a couple barrel aged offerings from Founders(KBS and Curmudgeon's Better Half) and thought both were outstanding. Will have to give Dragon's Milk another shot.O-Trap;1199266 wrote:I like a little boozy for some of my stouts, hence my love for Dragon's Milk. You can about taste the whiskey from the barrels.

Better Half. I have yet to have this, but I will taste it tomorrow. I've read about it on Founder's website and looking forward to it.

I like Hobgoblin, for the price you can't go wrong. Its like $4 here.O-Trap;1199678 wrote:Having a Hobgoblin and a Cain cigar for "lunch."
I got off work early today, and waiting until my flight this evening. Picked up a Stone Self Righteous and Green Flash Imperial IPA on the way home. Figured I'll save money over an airport beer and drink better beer. That's what I call a win win.
