That pumpkinator was probably one of the best beers i've had.


If you're looking for some, I know a specific store here in beer hell that still has some.

Geez, tough to narrow down. I haven't had nearly the depth of beers that some of you guys have had. Or the memory. ;)

So here's 10 of my favorites off the top of my head, some of which you can get in BR. This is in no particular order.

-St. Bernardus Abt 12 (BR)
-Bell's Two Hearted Ale
-Anchor Christmas Ale (BR)
-Unibroue La Fin du Monde (BR)
-Sierra Nevada Life & Limb 2 (could get in BR)
-Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA
-Terrapin Hopsecutioner
-Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout (BR)
-Unibroue La Fin du Monde (BR)
-Southern Tier 2xIPA

Prob why it's beer hell. No one buys the good stuff so it sits on the shelf rotting away

Yeah, when i started brewing beer, i must have had 5 people tell me, "when are you going to make a bud light?"

I did not take the time to learn the craft, spend $400+ so far on equipment, and spend hours brewing beer, to brew a shitty mass produced lager with no taste.

That Monk's Marzen you mention is the beer we had on cask at the Avenue that day correct? If so that may have been one if not the best beer I have ever had as well.

Good, I was hoping no one from the west coast (pac nw in particular) would come here and shite on our parade.

I do not like this beer. It's ok for a hoppy beer but is over hyped. Abita makes better beer IMHO

I know they must have used a triple decotion mash to make that beer. I really want to do that but it takes sooooooooooooo much more work and time. I will probably do it soon though. I want to lager a beer over the winter. Ok enough off topic talk, down to beers.


Overall Beers (INPO)
Westy 12
Monk's Marzen that tetu is talking about
Wisconsin Belgian Red - New Glarus Brewing
Smoked Porter - Alaskan Brewing
Chimay White - For old times sake
