The Beer Thread

Wake · Mar 4, 2016

There are alot of beers on there that I haven't tried so I would be jumping around. But from what I've had on the list, 90 Minute is the tops followed by the Delicious IPA. I'm alone in thinking the Grapefruit Sculpin is just ok. The Southern Tier Porter is solid if you want to go darker.

Starr Hill Brewery

Solid IPA

Paladin · Mar 4, 2016

Virginia's best brewery right there. Love me some Starr Hill when I'm back east.

I've been thoroughly enjoying Founder's All Day IPA. Delicious.

I have a friend from college that recently became a sales rep for them, I've wondered how it was.

Had a few Boddington's last night, had been a few years since I had this beer, it's a good every now and then try.

I bought a 12 pack of Bass bottles last night. I think it's my new favorite beer after trying it at a podunk bar in the middle of nowhere that didn't have much else in their beer selection while I was traveling for work. What a great accident.

Your just now trying Bass? I thought you were a professional.

Hey man…it's hard to find around here. I thought that the bar that did have it, had it in their cooler since 1991.

I didn't enjoy it all that much myself. I think the normal sculpin is much better but also thought it was well below the likes of stone, 90 minute, hopslam,etc

Bass is still one of the best beers out there even with the craft craze.

If you can find it on tap it's even better. Everyone here dropped it for some crap IPA

I can't agree any more with your last sentence. Seems to be the new "it" thing. Even the historically bad hole in the wall bars around me are now gourmet beer places. And even if you magically stumble upon one that you like, they only have it for three weeks…

Bass is by far the best value beer out there. It sells for like $25 a case out here, whereas all the other IPA's are in the 40's. And it's one of the best beers out there anyways IMO

jdtox · Mar 5, 2016

Damn you guys really making me want to have a Bass today now. It's been a while.

IPAs are definitely the new thing. I went to a beer tasting last night and that's pretty much all there was. None of them were on the same level as sculpin or hopslam not even close. I like a good IPA but the whole craft beer thing is getting crazy.

I had a couple of bottles of a dark Belgian beer brewed over oak called Rodenbach with dinner tonight. It was beautiful and was kinda Cider ish in taste.
I'm going to have to look for a few more bottles to keep at home.
