My F thru N or T beers will be Budlight. From there it will be Dewar's on the rocks. Provided I can't get the IV started.

FBD is The Lost Abbey & New Belgium BrettBeer

Collaboration and Lips of Faith Series

Not amazing but very solid. Was scared of the Brett yeast, but am not getting the funky kick on back end that I expected. More of an earthy flavor.

Solid price at $5.29 for bomber. Will buy again.

Last minute decision. FBD is a Parish Canebrake.

I really like this beer. Canebrake was FBD and SBD at Bulldog. Home now contemplating TBD. Have I mentioned that I just finished a rough week at work?

Today was only the second time I've tried it. A really solid beer. Not super complex and I am not sure I would peg it as a wheat beer if I tasted it blind, but it really is a good drinking beer.

TBD is a Ballast Point Sculpin IPA. First time tasting it and I think it lives up to its rep. Wonderful nose with grapefuit/orange citrus and piney hops. Nice mouthfeel and taste. Super complex and full of flavors. Damn this is good.

Live Oak hefe is damn good

Might try the clone as my next homebrew if I feel confident I can keep it fermenting cool enough with ice blocks and a bath

I remember the 1st time that I had it, the waitress stopped by to ask how everything was and I had only taken about two sips at that point and said, "I'll have another"

I haven't homebrewed since the move to Texas. My brother and I used to have a pretty good system going back in Louisiana. I just saw that FirewWheel Brewing is getting cranked up... I should try to corner the market out where I live before it is too late

Guys at live oak are real laid back

They made a small batch schwarzbier that was righteous. The shelled roasted malt made all the difference

The hef has a lot of banana and clove flavor to it that seperates its flavor profile.

I agree.

TBD is Independence Bootlegger Brown

By far my favorite brown ale. If my homebrew is anything similar to this i'll be extremely happy
