Got the Sierra Nevada Beer Camp 12 pack. It was pricey, but the 4 beers were all good. (Granted, I passed with half a glass of the Imperial Red in my hand)

was never a fan of sapporo, but the rest of those look good... specifically that hobgoblin

Those bottles have been returned to my store but we haven't received any to sell yet.

What's in it?

An Oatmeal Stout, Imperial Red IPA, Floral IPA, and Imperial Pilsner. They're good in that they don't do anything to extremes. For example, the Imperial Red IPA is more malty which is different for an IPA.

weyerbacher's imperial pumpkin ale does the trick.

but pumking on tap is better

Fuck yes stubby bottles! Makes me feel like I'm drinking in 1971.

Sadly, the beer isn't great. Good, but I'm not sure I'll buy it again. And my cat most certainly did not appreciate having a beer shoved in her face and then the flash going off. Not shown five seconds after this picture was taken, the cat trying to bite me.

Had one of these on my birthday. REALLY enjoyed it. The banana was pretty subtle and came mostly after drinking, but I noticed if I took a quick sip a little banana flavor would come out. About the same type of heaviness as an amber

Okay, Fuller's London Pride is pretty bangin'.

Hobgoblin = SMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTH

Went out for drinks with coworkers for my going-away party, and had a few cool beers. Had the Full Sail Session Black Lager (delicious), the Stone Dry-hoppped IPA on cask (nice, but not as balanced as I'd like) and the Weyerbacher Blithering Idiot (maltier than I expected for a Barleywine; right up my alley). Good shit

Yeah? I think I saw some at my friend's store. Might just have to try some.

Oh, and that Left Hand Wake Up Dead glass you got KICKS ASS!!!! I want, like, ten of 'em.

THIS THREAD NEEDS BUMPING!!!!

This past weekend, I had some great beers while in Raleigh. Took some pix, which I'll upload later, but first off I figured I'd just list 'em while I could remember 'em.

Mother Earth - I'm sure that I had a Kölsch, but I can't find it on their site. Maybe it was a draft-only local thing? Or maybe I'm just hallucinating. Anyhow, had SOMETHING of theirs that was on the light & bright side with lunch, and it was tasty. Followed it up with their Dark Cloud Dunkel, which was mild & smooth. Another nice lunch beer.

New Belgium Fat Tire! Yay! Had a bunch of these, both on tap and from the can. Those on tap were SUPER tasty, but the can was certainly a good mid-afternoon beer. It's been literally over a decade since I last had Fat Tire, and it was good to see that it's still delicious.

Warsteiner Dunkel - pretty damned tasty, dark & just rich enough. And they served it in a big-ass Warsteiner stein. Extra points for awesome drinkware.

Olde Hickory Southern Belle - Belgian-style Farmhouse Ale aged in Chardonnay barrels. I can't remember what it was paired with (fish tacos, I think), but it was a perfect match.

New Belgium Lips of Faith Tart Lychee - my first sour beer! Hooray for me! It was quite delicious, but then, I like lychee. And it pretty much tasted like lychee.

Leifman's Goudenband - my second sour beer! Even more hooray! This was pretty awesome - dark, I think aged in oak. I had it for dessert, paired with a little sweet potato cheesecake. Super delicious.

Reissdorf Kölsch - had it a couple of times on tap. Nothing crazy, but certainly worked as a lunch beer.

Fullsteam Carver Sweet Potato lager - pretty nice. Not too sweet, but definitely more full bodied than the average lager. But I had this at a show, so I was a bit distracted by the goings-on onstage.

And obviously there were others, and repeats, but this is what I can remember off the top of my head. I may have had the Mother Earth Wit as well... I dunno...

I had Fat Tire for the first time myself the other day, both draught and in bottles. While it is very good bottled, I really enjoyed it on tap (probably helped by the fact that I was having a really good meal at the time).

PUMKINGGGGGGGG
