Team Adam's Posted November 22, 2012 Author Share Posted November 22, 2012 Going to be cracking open my home-brewed barleywine tomorrow, affectionately known as "Novocaine." It's been aging for nearly 8 months, to say I'm curios to try it would be an understatement. Also picked up a few bombers tonight to replace the ones aging in the fridge that I'll be sharing with friends and family over the holiday.

Z71_Denali Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 just like everything else from this brewery, the Big Wave is amazing! my local grocery store where i get most of my supply calls this a seasonal i told them to bring back the Wailua!!! they pretty much have Longboard Lager, and Fire Rock Pale Ale year round it seems.

THE Mook Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I have been on a Pinot Noir kick lately. I saw a Sour Brown Ale from New Belgium last night, but at $18 a bomber for 5% beer...no thanks. That Abita Pecan Ale would certainly get me to give someone a bottle of BG from my stash for some!

Redbeard Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Too bad it's done until next fall. You should check out Lazy Magnolia's Southern Pecan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc2hill Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Tried this one the other day: Sam Adam's Cherry Wheat ('borrowed' this picture) I did not care for it - it had way too much cherry flavor for me. I don't mind some fruit flavor in my lager - Abita Purple Haze (raspberry wheat) is one of my favorites, but this was too cough-syrupy for me.

My usual pour on my favorite restaurant is Shock Top, but they were out so I tried the Sam Adam's Cherry. I will look for the ST Raspberry Wheat now.

Holder Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 Did someone say Abita Purple Haze? One of my favorite beers, I have a sixer in my icebox at all times. Sometimes you can even see some rasberry floating in the beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loop Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Got my hands on this little treat yesterday: Mmmmmmmm.... If you like that, you should try Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale. Very, very tasty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted December 12, 2012 Author Share Posted December 12, 2012 If you like that, you should try Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale. Very, very tasty! I've had a few of them and don't like them nearly as much as the Bourbon Stouts. Most of the Bourbon Ales are overpowered with the bourbon flavor/aroma. Don't get me wrong, I love bourbon and I love ales, but I prefer to keep them separate. Bourbon and stouts blend together soooo well, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE Mook Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I'll be honest with you, I dont know the difference between a stout and an ale...but I LOVE Bourbon LOL It's the brewing process. Ales come in all colors...golden, amber, white, etc. Stouts will always be a darker beer. Heavier than an ale if you ask me, maybe a little maltier. Back when I was more into the beer and knowledge of all things Barley, I knew a lot more, but I digress, I am old and can't remember. Mook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'World's Best Beer' Finally Available | ABC News Blogs - Yahoo! A year ago I would've been beating bushes for this stuff since I'm down to my last few bottles that I got from the monastery but not now. Sun King's Wee Muckle is a real good substitute. Sun King doesn't brew it all the time but it is a lot easier to get than going to Belgium! A one-hour drive and I'm standing in Sun King's brewery getting my growler filled!
