It's a damn good beer. I've got one more in the fridge. Tried to find some more tonight, no dice. I ended up with Double Wide IPA from Boulevard Brewing Co. Really good find. Strong at 8.5%, but unnoticeable. Dark, hoppy and heady, it was a great beer. Along the same lines as the Blindfold.

blindfold and double wide sound really good. there is a bar in baltimore i like that is a converted double wide trailer.

the beer camp is cool. my fav so far is (surprisingly) a tropical malbock and a pale ale from cigar city brewing. the russian river contribution was a belgian style blonde which is by far my least fav type of beer and i didnt personally enjoy the russian river version. got about 8 more types to go. def adds some fun to drinking beer.

beer camp is pretty cool - apparently they are brewed by sierra nevada but in conjunction with the various brewers in two places - chico, CA and in NC. that is how they are able to get limited distribution beers like russian river to be distributed to all 50 states. all the labels are specially made beer camp labels.

Finally had Firestone Walker Union Jack IPA. Very good. Enjoying one as we speak. Also has a Stone IPA and a Anthem Golden Ale by Union Craft Brewing, which was better poured in a glass than out of the can.

Always thought Pete Wicked was kinda nasty. Back then I was drinking more Dominion and Foggy Bottom around the DC area.


Anybody had the Sierra "Flipside" Red Ale?...not bad

Flipside Red IPA | Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. | Chico, CA | BeerAdvocate

Winter beer: Anchor's Christmas Ale is always good. I've probably listed some good winter beers in posts past in this thread.

Here is the list of beers I had over the last few days:
Little Sumpin’ Sumpin’ | Lagunitas Brewing Company - My first Lagunitas for what it's worth. Awesome beer. Very enjoyable.

Blue Moon Harvest Pumpkin Ale - Wife picked it up. Decent offering from the macro side. Not as full flavored as most pumpkin beers, but drinkable.

Pumpkin Ale | Schlafly Beer - One of my favs (along with Southern Tier Pumpking). This is your pumpkin pie in a bottle beer.

This place brews a smoked porter that will knock your socks off.
