I've got my eyes on a Brother Davids Triple Belgian-Style from Anderson Valley Brewing Company. I had the Double last weekend. Very tasty and very strong. The Triple weighs in at 10%.

Here are my favs:

Rebar, you must try this if you like IPAs

Best Beer EVER is:

 

[BeerMan]

that reminds me. it's time to raid the local BevMo!

 

[Rebar71]

Have you tried the Ruination version? I think it is better.

Of course I have. There isn't a beer made by Stone that I haven't tried. I like it too - I just wish they made it in a 6er.

I have one of those (empty) bottles sitting next to my computer. My wife got it for me last X-mas. I savored it and drank it over three days.

Perhaps we need an LGK beer club. Here's a link to a place that will ship Bridgeport and other Northwest beers, but they advise that it is best to order large quanities, 5-6 cases. I have a loading dock right around the corner from my office, but I don't know how the unversity would feel about a shipment of beer. But check this place out:

Another of the fine Bridgeport Ales which I brought home with every intention of sharing last year.

 

[Azagthoth]

Don't be so mean. We rely on Az's Bud expertise.

LOL.

As far as Budweiser goes, I could take it or leave it. It's an ok beer to throw in the mix every now and then but it's not what I normally drink. Too much of that stuff gives me nasty headaches the next day so if I'm drinking to drink a lot I go with Sam Adams or a Miller product. If I can only have 6 or so then i'll go import (New Castle, Heineken, San Miguel, San Miguel Dark).

There are much nasteir beers out there than Budweiser. BTW it's not an urban myth about the Czech origins.

If we do that I'll buy a case or two and give it a shot.

If I get two, you get one, and KJ gets one, then we have 4 total cases. I'm sure others would do it too.

just got back from BevMo.

the only Bridgeport they have in stock are the IPA and the Pintail Copper Ale. I grabbed the IPA.

I also picked up Dixie Beer (slow brewed). I've had their Blackened Voodoo and the Crimson. both are great. I had the Dixie Beer in a rib place, of which did not impress me at all, thus I've forgotten about how the beer went.

somehow, a bottle of Stone's Ruination IPA followed me home.

with any luck, the reviews will be up at the end of the weekend.

cheers!

I really like the Bridgeport IPA, it wins top homors at a lot of brewfests all over the world. The Pintail Ale is every bit as good as KJ said.

Not sure if this one is good but they have a game:

Their IPA is damn good, but the Pintail is their best beer. Be sure ot grab some Pintail next time

Those are the only two Bridgepors you will find at Bevmo

 

[BeerMan]

Pintail Copper Ale? not exactly what you were talking about in the first place, but yeah I'll pick that up next time.

 

[Obediah]

Sign me up for the LGK Beer Club. A-FRODOG will be the mascot.

Alesmith X Ipa is pretty good stuff that they brew locally here in San Diego as well worth a shot if you like real hoppy beers like Stone.
