Local micro brew that TeedUpThoughts bought me for beating him in fantasy football :) Nice hoppy flavor.

In Stowe, VT for the weekend and found myself in beertopia! More info to come
 
Had something called an Albino Stout tonight and it may just well be the best beer I have ever tried. It was from Cleveland Brewing company and it was magical.
 
Had a lot of the local homebrews tonight. RedruM IPA, rum barrel ipa and our local brewery Coffee Porter. I love em dark and not so dank.
 
Had a pretty good list of good beers last night, Jai Lai, Fat Head Headhunter, Coppertail Unholy Trippel, and Cigar City Cubano Espresso
 
What did you think of the Cubano Espresso?
I tried it last week and thought it was pretty darn heavy for me.
 
A friend of my brother owns this brewery...

I really like their Field Point Brown.

I really enjoyed it, but I have developed a taste for heavier beers more recently.

Went to Prohibition Pig brewing last night in Stowe and sampled quite a few of their selections. Ended up getting a pint can to go of Piggy's little helper, it's a porter aged on cocoa nibs, candy canes and Vanilla Beans. Was excellent!

And while in Rome, had a couple of Heddy Toppers from the Alchemist. Couldn't find any to buy in the local stores so my brother in law is going to bring some back next time he comes down.
 
I love most all shiners, but this one was a bit weak in flavor.

The Piggy's Little Helper sounds delicious.

Guinness Extra Stout for me.
 
One of my favorites no matter all the other beers I try

One of my new sales guys brought in a bunch of beers from Blue Hills Brewery, a micro brewer here in MA. Their canned beers are actually quite good.

Awesome looking can russ. I actually prefer the Craft brews in cans and wish they would all follow suit.

When he pulled the cans out (he brought in a few growlers too) he talked for a bit about the newer lined aluminum cans and how they keep the beer tasting better since they don't allow sunlight in. I know that when I brew at home, I always use really dark bottles to keep the light off of the beer.

I have heard the exact same about the cans. It is kinda funny because people think classy beers and assume bottles but for me I think can especially if I want something good and different.
 
Bought a couple of these at Spec's the other day.....pretty tasty

There was an Oskar Blues in Longmont, Colorado right across from my hotel....I spent 3 weeks there last year and almost every night I ended up knocking a few of these down right out of the tap
