wow. can’t begin to describe how much this beer sucks. ah.

This is a beer I really prefer to enjoy when I am camping. I will put that disclaimer out there right now. In front. Just being honest.

It has been said that this beer set about the Great American Beer Revolution. While that fact is not in dispute here, what is must be the question of ‘What price does that honor weigh?’

This beer has been waiting to be reviewed. Finally corraleed Nicole so we could sit down and try this beer together. Only fair… since I did buy it for her.

The Dogfish Head 120 Minute IPA, brewed in Milton, DE is an American Double / Imperial IPA. 21% ABV. This is single most extreme beer I drink.

Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout. Damn, this is a beer I wait all year to drink. Brewed in where else… but Brooklyn, New York by the Brooklyn Brewery. As usual with Russian Imperial Stouts, this one is a little on the kick your ass side, 10.6% ABV. This is one of my favorite styles of beer…

“Oak Aged Stout Fermented with Vanilla Beans” ok, so that sounds good. This stout is legendary. I’ve heard people rave; read tremendous reviews on beeradvocate.com… so I figured I owed it to myself to see what the fuss was all about…

Stoudts Brewing Company is a Pennsylvania brewery that I’m hoping to one day visit. I’ve heard a lot of good things and I’m excited to try my first Stoudt’s. Brewed in Adamstown, PA… this tripel is parenthetically described as a “Belgian Abbey-Style Ale”. 9.0% ABV.

I purchased an entire case on a whim. I’ve been drinking this for a few weeks now. The Great Lakes Brewing Company, from Cleveland Ohio, makes this Winter Warmer as a seasonal offering. 7.50% ABV.

This offering from the folks at Jacob Leinenkugel Brewing Company (Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin) is a Winter Warmer that comes in soft at 4.90% ABV. Again, Leinenkugel misses the mark for me.
