Beer

Finally went to this one. http://biguglybrewing.com/

Not really impressed at all. Was a little over $5.50 per beer. One of them was decent, I couldn't see myself ordering any of the other 4 ever again. The food truck was really good though.
 
I wish I could have PTY but PTE is amazing. Cousin lives in SD and one used to and we did a beer exchange, homebrew for PTE when they came to Jersey.

The best brewery I've ever been to is DuClaw in Baltimore.

DuClaw is a very solid brewery. I think they miss the mark for technique on a lot of their beer, but they're very creative.

Everyone goes bananas over Sweet Baby Jesus, but it's very mediocre. IT's the kind of beer people who like cosmos would drink. No real backbone, just lots of peanutbutter and chocolate smells and flavors.
 
Carton 077XX is just so pimp.

The beer itself is just so freaking fantastic great balance of malty sweetness, hop bitterness and dryhopping dankness. It's only "fault" as a beer is that it's an IIPA with 5 SRM. Where it's per style supposed to be from 8-15. It's kind of nitpicking, but it's something to knock it a little.

But they plain get it. THeir can design is epic. Their tap design on point. They just do everything so well.
 
Finally found an IPA I really enjoy. It's actually a Belgian IPA. And the best part? It's brewed right here in Tennessee.

Black Abbey's, Brother Maynard

This is my new favorite brewery. Every beer I've tried so far has been fantastic. To my knowledge, I don't think they bottle their beer, so I have to get growlers at a local craft beer shop. If you're ever in Nashville, I highly recommend stopping by this place.
 
Stopped by the liquor store on my lunch break today on a whim. Little did I know, Victory's Summer Love just came in this morning. Will probably be drinking this the next ~3-4 months.

No clue why Ben Franklin is eating a hoagie. But this **** is my jawn!

Nugget may be one of the finest hops out there.
 
It could be. Looks like lettuce to me but I guess it could be cheesesteak meat too. But then it would be a geno's style, and they're not as good.
 
Assuming no annoying appeal wins, The Alchemist will be opening it's 14000 squarefoot brewery/giftshop in Stowe. What that means is more beer. Not just more Heady, but more of their other offerings. Reason why I'll say most of you won't care, is because I'm pretty sure it won't expand it's current distribution by much.
 
Just drank four Cigar City Jai Alai, now working on my third Lagunitas NightTime.

How is nighttime? What beer would say it's kind of similar to?

It's ostensibly a Black IPA, but it leans heavily on the IPA side and just sort of finishes with a burnt-sugar sweetnesses, which (along with the color) justified the "black" appellation. I like DayTime better, but Lagunitas rarely makes a beer that isn't—at minimum—solid as hell.

Nice, I haven't had either yet, but they're at the local beerery. I coudln't get it because I already have way too much beer at home. I know that shouldn't be a problem, but at 3+ cases yeah it's slowly becoming one.

I want to try Daytime in the summer. Had Pinner just today, really interesting. Not a classic session IPA.
