My first infected beer tonight. BA Smoked Porter from Asskisser Ales. Straight sour as shit. Drain poured. Moved on to a Clown Shoes 1.5 hoppy feet and all was well.

Anyone know where I can find someone or someplace from which to buy KBS and have it shipped somewhere? I'd like to send a buddy of mine some.

Picked up some Double Trouble and having one now, and damn I almost forgot how awesome this beer is. For some reason I don't think I bought any last year and DT is one of the seasonal beers I generally buy every year. I think it has the most amazing aroma and now remember why this was my favorite DIPA for a while.

One of the most citrus-y DIPAs I can recall. VERY tasty.

I apparently missed some by a day. A guy I know sold a four-pack yesterday. FML

Got some Dark Horse Plead The 5th. Very nice Stout. Was kinda surprised by it.

Another couple bottles of Fantome Saison. My big score was 2 bombers of Founder's Doom.

Won't open it tonight as it is not chilled enough. Sometime in the next few days it will be drank.

And you are welcome for the non Face Pics. ;)

Really curious about Pleead the 5th.

I went with a Vampire Slayer by Clown Shoes tonight <insert clown porn gif joke>

It was decent, got a lot of trucker stop coffee bitterness. Lacking on the mouthfeel though. Wouldn't buy again.

I liked that one, but Brown Angel and Pimp are my favorites by them. They have a russian imperial i'd like to try but I haven't seen them sold at my local stores. </insert>

Haven't picked this up yet but heard good things, might have to try it out soon.

Picked up a 6 pack of Southern Tier Live last night and had a few. Liked it quite a bit; good beer for when the weathers nice and being outside.

I'll look for that ST live. Thats what I like about this Founders Session ale, nice and hoppy and really nice for great weather.

OMFG! Awesome malty hoppy double IPA, then you get the vanilla bourbon kick. Seems like an odd combo, but it's delicious!

That shot of vanilla in the finish surprised me at first. Does have a hint of oak on the finish. Can't miss the Bourbon in this one. Founders delivered once again.
