That Upland brew looks good.

Currently in a trade to get 12 KBS's

Sending him a Black Tuesday, Cascade The Vine, Russian River Supplication, and Almanac Pluot.

Mmmm, KBS! And you're sending some great stuff as well. How about those Almanac sours though? Delicious and easily accessible! I think Valley of the Heart's Delight and Blackberry are my favorite so far. Can't wait for the Citrus one that's coming out soon.

You both win. Does he know he can order the Vine direct online? Perhaps not in his state or something though.
 
A good friend of mine had a ownership share in saint archer and he always give me sixers of blonde ale which I LOVE. He gave me 10 bombers of the pale ale. It is so ****en tasty, I'm a wheat beer guy and I love this!
 
Beachwood BBQ & Brewing's Long Beach location just had their 3rd anniversary and released Greenshift IPA. That thing is fantastic! Super hoppy and resinuous. I can't even decide which of Beachwood's IPAs is my favorite anymore because they're all great, IMO.

This thread is so dead. :2smile:

The Bruery was doing growler fills of Sour in the Rye with Pineapple & Coconut today. Such an amazing variant. Definitely prefer it to SITR w/ Peaches or Kumquats.

Picked up the Beer Camp collaboration case at Costo. Sierra Nevada collaborated with 12 breweries to make 12 different brews. So you get 2 of each in the case. So far it has been stellar.

Had the Sierra Nevada Double IPA last night. 8.5% and very drinkable. Good stuff!
 
Anyone else enjoying pryamid's curveball this summer? I been drinking it for a while and between that and Deschutes chainbreaker its my go to on a hot day.
 
I had the opportunity to have a half goblet full of Dogfish Head's World Wide Stout. it came with a whopping 18%. first sip produced a nicely balanced sweetness with slight hoppiness amid a caramel base. the taste did not indicate a high alcohol content but after finishing it, I got up to walk and my legs felt like jelly. DH was NOT ****ing around with that high a percentage.

wish they bottle that stuff!
 
Beerman, they do bottle it. It's very pricey, though. The one time I saw it on the shelf it was about $20 for a 12 oz bottle, IIRC.

In other news, Noble Aleworks Naughty Sauce is friggin awesome. The nose of coffee and hazelnuts always gets me and the nitro creaminess makes it silky smooth. Drinking a Bear Republic Cafe Racer 15 right now. HUGE DIPA.

I have a few random questions for all of the people in this thread. How many bottles are you cellaring? What’s the oldest bottle? What are you waiting for?
I have around 10 decent to really good beers that I'm cellaring for... well I can't honestly tell you because I don't know. I have a few Sierra Nevada beers and a couple random Belgians, but the beer that I haven't the slightest idea what I'm waiting for is the 2014 Firestone Walker Parabola. I somehow managed to find two of these, and Beer Advocate says that the beer is fantastic. I had the 2013 and loved it.

So, what's the one beer you have in your cellaring space that you don't know when or why you'll open?
