Let's talk good beer

[over the mountain]

i had a good beer weekend.

went to DTC, got 15 day old tasmanian ipa and 43 days old sculpin cans and a sixer of laguinitas sucks.

i was surprised to still see a sixer of sucks (since they stopped making 6ers) and more surprised that it was so fresh. i think i read that lil julian date wrong (223) bc it tasted like the malt had time to resonate a lil too long. sucks turns sappy or something when it sits too long. sappy isnt the right word.

adroit theory - they had the bottles out but it was like 11:30 and no rep was there to give me a pour. sucked bc their selection looked unique. beer types ive never seen before and i wanna try before dropping money on.

GABF Winners - Great American Beer Festival

list of winners from the great american beer fest. read that ppl would wait in line for 1 oz of pliny, drink it then turn around and get back in line. lol. i hope that line wasnt long. pliny is great and all but at 1 oz, russian river can go fuck themselves.

-----------------

port city brewing out of alexandria va won in a few categories. happy to see saucony creek win something w a beer ive never seen from them. another VA brewery won as well.

congrats Port City on a really good showing.
