Berghoff Sundown Dark. Not bad, but for the price I couldn't resist (~$9/12-pack).
Tonight's flavor,
sam adams boston lager.
alaskan winter ale.
had a New Glarus Coffee Stout & a NG Uff-Da Bock & a couple glasses of Finca Antigua Cab last night.

Some beer I picked up this evening, from left to right:
New Glarus Coffee Stout, Central Waters Bourbon Barrel Stout, New Glarus Organic Revolution, and New Glarus Uff-da Bock.
Current drinking the Bourbon Stout, and it's very, very VERY good. Might make it on to the Coffee Stout later tonight, will have to see. Have had the Bock and the Organic before, but looking forward to the Coffee Stout (along with the rest of the seasonal and "unplugged" specials that occur throughout the year). Hmmm, I think I might be acclimating to 'sconi culture...
edit: Holy crap I'm starting to really, really like Wisconsin...

Sierra Nevada Torpedo Extra IPA. Brand new offering from SN. Stronger than an IPA, but not quite a double IPA.
Faaaantastic!
Faaaantastic!
SN making a hoppy IPA? I never, ever would've guessed...
Have just finished the Coffee Stout, and is quite tasty. It's a little, uh, light after the Bourbon Stout, though, so I wouldn't follow one after the other next time...
sam adams irish red .
New Belgium Mighty arrow.
Not very mighty.
Not very mighty.
Mmmm... must find Torpedo.
High Life.
Harpoon Imperial IPA. Right now, my favorite beer on the planet.
Shouldn't be too hard to find after the initial buzz dies down. It's a new offering, but will be a year round beer. Comes in sixers unlike their Harvest Ale and the like.Mmmm... must find Torpedo.
Speaking of Sierra Nevada....
Bigfoot barleywine.
:beerjam:
Do they make anything that isn't good?
Smuttynose IPA
Can't go wrong with a Smutty. Their latest "Big Beer", Gravitation (a Belgian Quad), is quite good, ableit sweet.
alaskan winter ale.
Hairy eyeball.

Old Rasputin, who thought a guy like you would have any taste.
Fvck you.Old Rasputin, who thought a guy like you would have any taste.
And it is TASTY. I think I might have another.
alaskan winter ale , again.
Had a Furthermore Knotstock last night. Which is a pale ale with black pepper. Damn tasty too.
Also had a Furthermore 3 Feet Deep stout made with peat smoked malt. More
good stuff from those Furthermore guys.
Also helped La polish off a bottle of Presto, a cheap Italian brut rose.

highland oatmeal porter.....asheville's finest
Long Trail IPA and I don't have to work tomorrow so I will have a few
NG Stone Soup. Good, not my favorite (and yes, I'm becoming a NG whore...). Picked up a 4pack of the iced barley wine, not sure when I'm going to try that but I'm definitely looking forward to it.
I really like New Glarus although spotted cow is my least favorite. Tried the Stone Soup with lunch, it is very nice & they can totally pull off an abbey style ale. I am not a big barley wine fan but I liked theirs.
Can you get Furthermore beers?
I think they may be my favorite WI brewery. Their Thermo Refur is the bomb. Supposedly 2 of the 4 barrels they made are here in Milwaukee & I can't find it in a bottle.
Shouldn't you be drinking Pinot? I mean, with so many great ones in your hood.
Wait...are you even drinking age?
Crap, wish I'd read this before heading to the Old Fashioned yesterday. They have 30 Wisconsin beers on tap, plus about 300 bottle varieties, and I'm positive that the Thermo Refur was on that list (can't remember whether it was bottled or tap). Tried their Knock Stock last night (definitely an excellent beer) along with Tyranena's Sheep Shagger's Scotch Ale (excellent brew especially considering the fact that the bar had it on special for $2.75/pint).I really like New Glarus although spotted cow is my least favorite.

The best part about the beer list was that they have two full pages of WI beer on tap, and then list Bud and Bud Lite as their "Imports"...

Couldn't have planned a more appropriate 1000th post.
A litre of Magic Hat #9 for 5 bucks. Not a bad deal. IMHO.
I've been making Bulliet Old Fashioned's a lot lately.
