Let's talk good beer

Had some surly abrasive ale yesterday and it was fantastic. It was like sucking on hops. I think it is only available in MN though.

Another Eastern Shore brewery, http://www.burleyoak.com/ is making an impact on the Delmarva Peninsula and beyond.

No bottles or cans, just drafts and growlers thus far. Was very happy to see my local sandwich shop have a keg of Rude Boy on tap. An Imperial Red Ale that drinks very easy and made me realize that I hadn't had a good red ale until now.

Later this month I am heading to a home brew comp. in Bmore. Couple of my co-workers are submitting beers in the comp. There are also 5 bands and (classic Baltimore) a burlesque show.

Where is this comp? Do you have any information on it? I have a few beers I could enter if the deadline isnt up. On a side not I just picked up a bottle of Brooklyn Black Ops and one of Goose Island Bourbon County Coffee Stout. Pretty excited about both of these.

People better not gripe when they raise the price or you simply see less of their product on the shelves.

yeah, its a give and take. Honestly, never seen them out anywhere. If so, I have no problem trying something new or going with another brand.

Stone Enjoy By 5/17/13 is phenomenal. I highly recommend it, unless you don't like hops or high ABV beers.

ive been drinking the flying dog "raving bitch" alot the past year or so. It is something around 9.1% abv which is great bc i can drink a 6 pack and get fairly close to hammer time but the next morning the only evidence is 6 empty bottles. Its a hoppy IPA which is pretty much my go-to beer if im not drinking some cheap ass can beer.

i also tried a few beers from this nomadic brew crafter Stillwater at this new foody spot "fork and wrench" last week in baltimore. really good stuff. if you ever see him at a brew fest, Id give him a shot.

Anyone got to the Maryland Brew Fest this past weekend? I think it was this past weekend.

Picked up a 6er of Schafly Summer Lager last Friday. A huge step up from your normal run of the mill lagers.

Sipping on a Pumking. It seems they are released earlier every year.

Not a big fan of Fat Tire, but picked up a 6er of New Belgium Rolle Bolle Ale over the weekend. A decent summer beer. Good floral notes. Went down easy.
