I just discovered that one this summer, Rimbaud, and your colorful, impressive interjection is deserved. That's an unusual and very tasty beer. The whisky barrel aging really gives it a distinctive flavor, but not overpoweringly so.

This is such a ridiculously good beer that it almost defies comment.

Is that the one that says "Kill Ugly Beer" on the label? I saw it at Whole Paycheck last night and almost got it. Picked up a double-deuce of Rogue "Kells" Irish-style lager and a sixer of Brooklyn Winter Brew instead.

no one has yet mentioned stone???



in my eyes, they can do no wrong. and for anyone in Michigan, Founders in Grand Rapids is my every week drinking spot.

^Damn, a 10 proof beer. Drink a six pack of that and you'll lose 10 hours of consciousness.

Yes. I blew it off about nine times because I thought any beer with Zappa on it was probably shitty.

Before motherfuckers get down my throat about what I am about to throw down, let it be known I've done the goddamn Kuliminator in Antwerp, bitches. Kuliminator. Not to mention the Delirium Cafe. I've got a fucking six pack of Westvleteren in my cabinet. Fuck you in advance.

Orval tastes like fucking shit. Maybe the worst beer I have ever had. Tastes like I am downing bootleg Giorgio of Beverly Hills I bought by the World Trade Center from a Yemeni selling handbags out of a trash bag, then puked it up into my coffee maker, put rust in a coffee filter, brewed, then drank it again. Shit sucks.

Southern Tier's Choklat stout is fantastic.

Hitachino Nest Weizen beer is now my 1. If you're lucky enought to find it, get it!

Hey there - I can also vouch for the one with the 'Lumpy Gravy' label on it...

(I'll probably make a 'run' on Corral Liquors in Granite City for every bottle they have on the shelf for NYE)
