Looking at my 1st epic. Going to let it breathe a little. Outside for a cohiba.
Anyone think a middle of the road cigar will ef up your pallette?
Half drunk so I gonna risk it.

Epic is epic! I've already called off work tomorrow. Gonna be an epic night.
3 frogs was awesome had a neat Lille citrusy finish. Would have drank it all night if I Did not know about the Imperial.
Founders was ok, iM used to drinking dbls so it seemed a Bit watery

Fat Head's Head Hunter IPA.
Got lots of medals won and shit on the label so I figured I'd give it a shot.
Not bad (definitely hoppy) but honestly I can't differentiate between good IPA's....only the bad ones stick out

Beer tasting was a success, Pumking fell off a bit from what I remembered. Then again it was bought off the shelf back in dec, and no idea how it was stored in the store. Smelled great, but was a bit thin and the spices were subdued. Smoking wood smelled like smoked pig on wood. Taste was veruy interesting, never had a beer like that before.
The Eclipse 50/50 was AWESOME. After the first few sips, my mouth felt like I had drank a shot of whiskey. The barrel really came through, but I was surprised that I wasn't getting Chocolate or coffee, which is typical of Imperial Stouts. This beer really showed off the BA.

I read a FB post a while back where Stone rec'd a few hundred brandy barrels from Europe last month. This could be Awsome or Meh. Bur I doubt horrible. I have never drank anything from them that I did not appreciate on some level. Biased I guess.Commander of Awesome;1373626 wrote:

It is a truly different beer. The smoke on it was different than most smoked beers. That in itself made it an interesting drink.Commander of Awesome;1373626 wrote:Beer tasting was a success, Pumking fell off a bit from what I remembered.

Last night had a Hoptologist DIPA and Knee Deep IPA both were lovely.
Going to the Andersons on Saturday the one in Columbus this time. I look forward to spending 75 wisely

I bought a bomber of the Hoptologist last night, but drank the White Rajah instead. I'll be having it tonight though. I've had the Hoptologist before and it's a damn good beer.gerb131;1374577 wrote:Last night had a Hoptologist DIPA and Knee Deep IPA both were lovely.

I certainly enjoyed what Knee Deep has to offer. San Diego area breweries are at the top of my beer list these days.
