That seems like a terrible deal.

Also. I'm drinking a DFH India Brown Ale right now and holy fuck is it delicious.

I grab 2 bottles of it every time I'm there and will do so until it's gone. Hopefully their supply will last about a month.

Understandable Pants, but She's as much as a beer snob as me or the rest of us on this thread. No harm, no foul as I know I can get more. (you've seen the picture) Oh and she's also a HUGE College Football fan. She's a Nebraska Girl. Corn Fed !!!

I had the Stone's 15 Anniversary last night. Phenomenal !!! It's a Imperial Black IPA, but has some Porter/Stout tendencies. Big hops presence with a little coffee and smoke flavor in the background. Interesting combination that I loved. Just put another bottle in the fridge for tonight.

Justin, the Jungle has LOTS of DFH Punkin set out. The have a huge display set up, according to The Wife who was there last night.

I still haven't had my Pumking yet. I've decided to lay off the booze this week since I'm going to be getting all sorts of fucked up this weekend.

I picked up some Smuttynose Pumpkin last night. Pretty good, never had it before. They had a few others brands that I'm going to try but the Smuttynose was rated the highest on the site I searched on my phone while standing in the aisle looking like an idiot blocking the lane so people had to scurry by me while I was also debating about buying some 1 pint 6 oz bottles but decided I was too cheap so I didnt buy any of them even though I looked at them for a really long time.

I spend like half an hour in the beer aisle of any store that has a decent selection. It's a bit ridiculous.

Yeah they had some individual bottles I wanted to try but though they were over priced (paying $13.99 for one bottle seems a bit to me) and I didnt want to wait to refridgerate them.

I've been spending a lot of time in the beer aisle also but it is mainly because there are A LOT of beers I have yet to try and I want to make the best decision.

In our short time rating different beers, here is our list the best beers we have rated thus far. We are pretty harsh and conservative on our grading scale. I am not a fan of stouts nor pumpkin, so you might not see much of that on here.

Stevens Point Nude Beach Summer Wheat Ale (Wisconsin) 14.5/20
Estrella Damm (Barcelona) 14/20
Kronenbourg 1664 (France) 13/20
Maumee Bay Brewery Amarillo Brillo 13/20
Tire Bite Golden Ale (USA, Maryland) 13/20
Hopping Frog Boris Stout (Akron, Ohio) 13/20

That's pretty high considering we (there is two of us) have not given above an 8/10 for either of us and I dispise stouts.
