Chic-fil-a Sweet Tea
right now i'm drinking....
Peak Brewing Alb Weiss Wheat beer, and as a taste test comparison to be followed by Emerson's Weissbier and then Emersons Dunkleweiss dark wheat beer. 
And that get's me to enough empty bottles to start brewing my next batch of home brew.
Which should I try making next a
Pilsner
Indian Pale Ale
Strong Belgian ale?

Well, I'm having a Captain and Coke right now. I purchased a 6'er of Sam Adams Blackberry Whitbeir and a 6'er of Blue Moon Pumpkin Ale. Should be a good night!
I came across this at the UT state liquor store a couple nights ago. It was a "NEW PRODUCT!", $12, and said "bourbon" on the label. I like to try all the crappy bourbons, as from time to time you'll find a a decent one (see: Ancient Age). It also helps that I'm a bourbon whore. And things lacking detail on the label intrigue me.
Anywhosawhatsit, when I got home, I took a sip neat and realized that I'd purchased not bourbon, but bourbon liquer, as per the label. Given that it was 100 proof and disgusting, I downed half the fifth in order to hurriedly dispose of it. Later, when much more intoxicated, I wiki'd the stuff to discover it is the favored drink of American fighter pilots, and generally only sold on/around fighter bases.

It tastes like fairy butt pee, but has an awesome pedigree, and reminds you about itself the day after. I'm also convinced that if I showed up to a sorority house with a handle of it and a gallon jug of lemonaide I'd be whiskey-dicking my way through an orgy within three hours.

I rode the fart out of my bike today, then had a steak sammich with a Stone Sublimely Self-Righteous IPA at the post-ride eatery. Damn...that was a tasty beer.
That stuff is awesome. I feel weird calling an IPA because it's defiantly not pale, I guess it is a "black IPA" or whatever though.
Had a SN Torpedo, a Flying Dog Gonzo and a Sam Smith's India Ale last night.
Yeah, black IPA. It definitely had the smell and taste of an IPA, but a thick mouthfeel. I love seeing stuff like that on tap.

Was that the first time you had it? It's a favorite of mine, keep it around semi regularly.Yeah, black IPA. It definitely had the smell and taste of an IPA, but a thick mouthfeel. I love seeing stuff like that on tap.
Cool. Any other recommendations for the style? Port's Old Viscosity is pretty awesome too, and I thought I liked it better than SSR at one point but then I realized I was wrong. Haven't really had any other black IPAs.
I have not had a lot of black IPA's at all. This might be the third one I've had. Given the choice, I'd always take a double IPA.
Hey man, when the gal wants to drink something other than wine I do my best to make her happy. She enjoys the Blackberry Whitbeir and the Pumpkin Ale isn't a pumpkin-flavored ale but more of just a Fall seasonal. When she wants either of those or Bud Light Lime, I make sure the BL stays on the shelf. She'll get a fresh bottle of wine soon and I'll get myself something nice. I'm still putting myself through school so it's kind of hard to afford really good beer. Sometimes I must sacrifice a bit

Unacceptable.
LOL
I drank Molson Ice when I was in school.
Right now: Maibock homebrew. Quite good.

Ah, classy!
At least I stick so semi-decent beer. 
I haven't had it yet but I've ran across Laughing Dog's Dogzilla Black IPA a bunch around here...
Beer Advocate gives it a solid B with 149 reviews up...
Emerson's Bookbinder ale.
Clos Vougeot Grand Cru 1990.
Damn smooth.
Damn smooth.
I can't recall seeing it anywhere around here, but I'll keep an eye out.
Upslope IPA. Quite good.

I'm pretty well catered to in that regard as well, though a lot of the places here tend to pretty much just do CA stuff, plus a few bigger east coast/ Colorado breweries (DFH, Victory, Avery, etc).
