Anyone ever try this?

I was eyeing it at the store tonight but didn't pull the trigger. Now I'm kicking myself after reading some reviews. I'll definitely be picking some up soon.

I still remember my first sip of that stuff.. 06 I think. It was one of my first ventures into crafts and micros.. well.. not really.. but when i really started getting into them. The d'extra is good too.

Makers 46 is pretty tasty... I think I might like it even more than the original

Re: Drunk Thread
 

I'm out of Makers (I did get my sweater btw, about a week or so ago), so I might have to pick up a bottle of Makers 46 to try.

Had Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale over the weekend. A nice, hoppy winter beer. For as hoppy as it was, still went down smooth. I feel like Sierra Nevada has really stepped up their game over the last few years.

Re: Drunk Thread
 

46 is super smooth, it's great on the rocks.

Celebration Ale is one of my all time favs. I've gotta stock up before it goes off the shelves until next year.

21st Amendment Back in Black IPA. Canned beers have made a big comeback, and this stuff is absolutely delicious. Had a few at happy hour yesterday.

Grabbed a 6er of Sierra Nevada Ruthless RyePA over the weekend, which is replacing their Spring "Glissade", which I thoroughly enjoyed last year and am disappointed to hear they won't be producing it this year.

I had tried a RyePA last weekend at Brewers Alley, which is one of the [URL="http://www.brewers-alley.com/"]local brewpub[/URL]s in Frederick, and found it very good and hoppy.

Ruthless wasn't as hoppy as the version I had at Brewers Alley, but still had a nice flavor to it. Goes down pretty smooth, but still has a nice little kick to it.

Yep....I got some of this last week, a lot of hoppy flavor mixed with a lot of rye. Might be the most ryeeist (if thats a word) beer I ever had.

Glissade was really good last year. I remember being pleasently surprised. RyePA will go on the list for sure.

Oskar Blues never can go wrong with those guys. Prefer the Dale's Pale, but still very solid.

Tonights the 35th Bday celebration, will be down at dank beer bar in the city. All ready have pulled the menu up to look ahead. Have already text the apologies to my friends and the erased some numbers from the phone.

This is what I dont understand, why I cant get dank beers I used to get in Virginia. Great Divide Brewery has pulled out Va for some reason, cant get their beer anymore...that really effing sux.

Sneaky strong too, I didn't realize it was 8% until I was working on #2. By then I was feeling it pretty good.

yup, Woodbridge to be more specific. Woodbridge isn't that great, but there's always plenty of stuff going on in Fairfax, Alexandria, Arlington, etc. so it's no biggie. Traffic sucks though.

Bleh....comes in a clear bottle.
Every one of those is skunked.

keg selection is key when you hosting, you gotta think what people there will drink. I want something everyone will enjoy...Newcastle Keg would be my suggestion. Easy to drink, easy to pour, taste awesome

Brooklyn consistently cranks out solid beers. I haven't tried anything from them that I haven't enjoyed.
