Not really, you have to drink it all that night, at least that is what I tell my wife.

You can stick one of those wine bottle stoppers in there.
Wouldn't try to keep it too long though.

Fbd is a southern star pro-am . Its an imperial ipa weighing in at 10% abv and full of west coast style simcoe hops goodness.

Where does this brewery rank in the South? It has to be one of the top ones. Everything I have had from them has been outstanding!

oh okay. I'm sure it'll be fine, I can work it in. Unless I don't like the beer.. then it's a commitment But hell, I didn't like Guinness the first time I tried it but after the 2nd one it wasn't so bad.

No way to pick just 6, but those were the first 6 that came to mind. 2 from each of my favorite 3 styles.



No worries guys, I'm keeping an excel spreadsheet with everyone's recommendations and I will try them out, mark them off, and whether I liked them or not.

Make sure you revisit a few as your taste buds will change with time. Hoppy and extreme beers are an acquired taste and you won't like some of them overnight, but once you get a taste for them they are excellent.

Not sure. I just recently discovered them. St arnold get a lot of the pub in houston and they have a bigger lineup than ss but ss ranks high in quality in my book. I loooove their pine belt ale

There are lots of stouts that you will like better than Guinness. Old Rasputin, Stone Imperial Russian Stout, and of course Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout come to mind.

I agree with hoopy beers being an acquired taste. For me it was like drinking beer for the first time again. Its a totally new taste...I didn't like it at first but now I'm a card carrying hop head!

FBD was a Parish Canebrake after a speedy 6 mile run.

SBD and I'm keeping it Parish.

Absolutely. Get a rubber wine stopper and it will last for a few days.

Sbd is a Gubna imperial ipa from oskar blues.

Just accidently snorted half the head on this one trying to take a whiff and half of the froth went up my nose. Talk about a jolt

Hulkk try some stouts at first like others have said, Old Rasputin is great. Stone also makes good stuff like Sublimely Self Ritghteous. Sierra Nevade Pale Ale is a good intro to something hoppier.
SBD another Endeavor
