newbreedbrian - 7-30-2009 at 04:44 PM

maybe it's just all the really big russian imperial stouts i've been drinking lately, but it's no problem to put back a few of these. smooth and only 5%.

BDx13 - 7-30-2009 at 04:51 PM

Lets Get Pissed!!!!

DAK - 8-8-2009 at 05:29 PM

Me mum made a enchilada casserole, baked beans, mac n cheese, a cake, and brownies for my brother and my birthday dinner. I am enjoying a few beers before supper. Cheers!!

Enyo - 8-8-2009 at 06:43 PM

LOL... I am going to get shit faced on the most girly drink possible... Malibu Bay Breeze. It's coconut rum, pineapple juice and cranberry juice.

Woohoo for getting drunk and UFC!


DAK - 8-8-2009 at 08:01 PM

I am drunk and full.

JawnDiablo - 8-8-2009 at 08:08 PM

I'm jealous of Dak's dinner.
I have 2 golden monkeys, and a half case of lionshead cat piss.
I'm drinking till the pain stops.
A pulled groin is no laughing matter, although it does open up the floor to many masturbation jokes.

Jason the Magnificent - 8-9-2009 at 06:29 PM


newbreedbrian - 8-9-2009 at 07:59 PM

Nice. I still have yet to find any Three Floyd's stuff. Someday......





BDx13 - 8-9-2009 at 08:58 PM

bought three cases this weekend:









Vanilla Gorilla - 8-9-2009 at 08:58 PM

I have had a few Three Floyds and the were good i think one was a Brian Boru amber, and the Alpha King Pale Ale, I always look for the Dark Lord Imperial Stout and will probably never find it unless I go to Indiana at the right time, so it looks unlikely.

Jason the Magnificent - 8-10-2009 at 01:03 PM

Yeah, FFF is hard to find outside of the immediate area much less the greater midwest and almost impossible to find in points beyond.

Luckily it's about a 40 minute drive from me and about 5 minutes away from my tattoo artist (and my P's) so I'm there every 4-6 weeks.

Good luck on the Dark Lord...I have a stash of 6 bottles left from Dark Lord Day...and I'm having a hell of a time justifying drinking any of them.

A lot of their best stuff doesn't make it out of the area at all and some stuff is taphouse only.

The Apocalypse Cow though is an amazing DIPA and the lactose sugar smooths it out nicely. Right now they also have bombers available of 'Blackheart'...an English style IPA that rediculously good.

I just looked and they actually finally revamped their website...all the beers are listed
http://www.3floyds.com/beers.html

newbreedbrian - 8-10-2009 at 03:42 PM

Yeah Dark Lord is not something you'll find unless you trade for it, buy it on eBay, or go to Dark Lord Day. Still haven't had one myself. I'm a big Russian Imperial Stout fan and it sounds like something I'd love. I'll track one down sometime in my life hopefully. That DIPA sounds pretty good as well, another style I love a lot. Unfortunately the brewery is a verrrrrry long way away from me so I don't see that happening anytime soon unfortunately.

Jason the Magnificent - 8-10-2009 at 04:14 PM

Always up for trades =)

newbreedbrian - 8-10-2009 at 04:21 PM

I'd be up for a trade for sure, just unsure about the border issue. I've done trades with people across Canada no problem but haven't taken the plunge with cross border yet. There's quite a few Canadians that do trades with Americans on a regular basis but it's not a 100% guaranteed thing that it'll get there every time.

Jason the Magnificent - 8-10-2009 at 08:07 PM

I'm certainly game to try. PM me with any tips on how they do it or a forum link to people discussing it.

BDx13 - 8-12-2009 at 12:38 AM

had one of these tonight while i was out.
DELIGHTFUL.


Otter Creek Russian Imperial Stout
http://www.ottercreekbrewing.com/otter_creek/beers/Imperial_...

The style was first brewed in England for the Russian Czar and it is the king of stouts. Plenty of big malt flavors- chocolate and roasted- and high alcohol with lower carbonation and mild hops.

We brewed this beer with double the malts and four times the hops of regular stouts!

Otter Creek Russian Imperial Stout clocks in around 10% ABV- a beer to be savored responsibly. True to style, this beer will last for years so you may want to stock up on a few bottles for your cellar while it's available.

Russian Imperial Stouts pair well with creamy cheeses such as camembert (we recommend Vermont-made!), decadent chocolate desserts, or a hearty meal.

Malts: 2-row, Munich, Extra Special Caramel Malt, Chocolate Malt, Dehusked Roasted Barley
Hops: Magnum, Willamette
Soft Brown Sugar


newbreedbrian - 8-12-2009 at 05:20 AM

Had one of those a couple months ago. Pretty tasty stuff

(i may have one of these stashed at home):thumbup:

BDx13 - 8-12-2009 at 09:00 AM

i was stoked cause it was on tap!
i was at a small local restaurant i'd never even heard of before.
check it: http://www.ronsoriginal.com/microbrews.html
will be back soon!

newbreedbrian - 8-12-2009 at 09:41 AM

You lucky bastard! That beer selection is great. Pretty much every restaurant here only has the same old macro swill.

BDx13 - 8-12-2009 at 09:38 PM

anything on that list you'd recommend?

*oh shit* just noticed that growlers are available. ugh...i'm so thirsty!

Vanilla Gorilla - 8-12-2009 at 09:48 PM

Bear Republic Hop Rod Rye is good if you like hoppy beers.
I saw the Victory Baltic Thunder on the list if you try it let me know how it is. I haven't had a bad beer by Victory.

BDx13 - 8-12-2009 at 09:52 PM

hop-heavy beers are about the only ones i'm not a fan of. recently tried both victory's hop devil and lancaster brewing company's hop hog...no go for me.

i'll try the baltic thunder, but will wait until i'm at the victory brewery - it's only about 10 minutes from my house. (lemme know when you're ready juan. bring the fam!)

Quite a few things on there actually D, but it depends on your tastes. It's a pretty good mix of stuff. There's some really good Belgian/Belgian styled beer, some killers stouts, some big IPAs (though it sounds like that's not up your alley), and a bunch of other goodies.

BDx13 - 8-12-2009 at 11:58 PM

i'll report back after my next visit.
perhaps sometime next week.
