Looks like the dogfishhead namaste is out at the local craft store.

Must get.

I actually prefer their Sah'Tea.

I spent the day tracking down my favorite beer, Founders KBS. It was just released and is already probably gone from Charlotte. With the bottles I found and some bottles I traded for, I should have a total of nine (after drinking one last night). That's plenty, as I only have them every few months or so.

Tonight I had a Bootlegger's Black Phoenix Chipotle Coffee Stout. I got it in a trade after wanting to try it for a while. I love coffee, chipotle and stouts, so it just made sense. It was a really nice stout. The coffee was subtle but very flavorful; I couldn't detect much of the chipotle, though.

Got some Guiness and Smithwicks for consumption.

If you know of any places I can try the KBS in ATL lemme know!!

[The Saltman]

Because you dont like one of their beers?

[The Saltman]

My first Dogfishhead was a 60 minute and then 90 min double IPA and fell in love with them. You cant just give up on one...they are one of my fav beers.

I was just about to get a post up about that festival on Charlotte Beer.

just got home from Pizza Peel. One of my favorite places to drink beers.

Shazam...Sexual Chocolate on the menu...but. Of course, they just ran out tonite...

So i order a Founders Imperial. Second disappointment. All the high gravity beers are now 8oz pours. But doesnt look like they lowered the prices at all.

Kind of sucked.

First Unibroue...wonderful Tripel!!

That sucks indeed. How'd you like the Founders Imperial Stout, though? I think it's one of the best of the style.

First Unibroue...wonderful Tripel!!

Yes, it definitely is! I've been on a Tripel kick lately myself. I recently had Flying Fish Exit 4, which was good but a little bit different (there was some flavor I just couldn't put my finger on -- almost like basil).

I also picked up Anderson Valley's Brother David's Triple. Instead of taking the beer shop guy's word, I probably should have looked up reviews first. It's got a B- on Beer Advocate. Oh well, it's just one beer and I'm sure I can find something I like about it.

Cheers!

Founders==Winning

Yeah, that little piss poor glass was a disappointment. Not sure when they started that. Its been almost a year since id been there. Havent had many chances with the new kid and all. I can tell you, i will definitely be less likely to go back. Last year we went quite a bit.

$6.50 for an 8oz pour sucks

5 Bud Ice tall boys on the menu tonight....and they're my chasers BTW
