We can't let the coffee drinkers and tea sippers hog the forum.

Buzztimers were meant to consume alcohol - at least after noon hour.

Offer each other Good Cheer.

Any comments, thoughts and tasting notes about your favorite libation would be appreciated.

Tried this one while watching the superbowl:

Beau's All Natural Lug Tread Lagered Ale. Very nice. A lagered ale means that it is top fermented like an ale but then cold aged like a lager. The best of both worlds. Too bad they will be dumping the cool ceramic bottles and switching to glass soon :cry:

sorry about the size of the pic but the other photo I have is blurry

Ain't no tea sippers allowed on the coffee drinkers thread. Image

Anyway, this is a thread I can get behind. Here is a pic of the inside of my custom made kegerator...

I had a 1/6 of Fat Tire & a 1/2 of 1554 in that pic. I currently have a 1/6 of Sam Adams & a 1/2 of Stone IPA. Yummy. Image

Oh yeah, this is what it looks like from the outside... :mrgreen:

You are correct sir! A Bourbon "Barrel" Porter to be exact. I soaked a couple ounces of oak chips in some bourbon for a few weeks and threw them in the keg to secondary. Turned out nice. :)

What is it, $4 Billion a year California could make if it legalized pot? I think it is about time. And lower the drinking age to 18-19.
Beer recommendations:
Bell's Double Cream Stout
Bell's Porter
Founder's Porter (my personal current favorite)
Pilsner Urquell
Michelob Porter
Michelob Marzen
Three Floyd's Gumballhead
Various European lagers and pilsners like Spaten, Paulaner Premium Pils, Weihenstephaner, Stella Artois, and Peroni
New Belgium 1554

You have excellent taste, MRBRNS! Image It is also a favorite of mine. I think the best beer I've ever had was Troegs' Nugget Nectar, although it's very hard to find if you're not in or around PA...

We don't stock that here. The same company owns EVERY package store in town and Walmart and CVS don't have much of a selection. Gonna try Hopslam and the new Blue Moon, whatever it's called, tomorrow (payday), as well as buy some more Founders and the Sierra Nevada Glissade, sounds like it might be interesting. The somebody Milk Stout is supposed to be good too, it might have to wait until next time though. The Boat, Sport, and Travel show is coming this weekend, gotta have some $ for it.

The "55" is only 2.9% alcohol I heard, making it a near beer. Drink up, kiddies! They served Kingsbury Near Beer in my dorm once. Donk!

My Mrs. prefers MGD 64. When I drink water, it's Coors Light. I never became a fan of the whole MGD thing. When I can find it, I'll choose old school Miller High Life over MGD.

This weekend I brewed an Altbier and an "American" Pilsner... Maybe I'll post a couple fermentation pics tonight and pics of the final product in a month or two. It's been a while since I've been able to brew so it felt great to bust out the kettle this weekend!! :P
