re: FBD: Sunday Funday is like a Saturday today

It's been a long day.

FBD- Boulevard The Calling

2BD - Ranger Creek Dark Side of the Hop

3BD- Hop Delusion- Not as bad as Ham would have you believe

4-6BD Gubna- Ryno confusing me with Jax. I can trade some NorCal beer but I've got nothing on the PNW.

Now I have to throw in extra on our first exchange

3bd- completing the trifecta

So far so good. Next BD Fresh Union Jack.

I bet you did. That sideways rain is a bitch. going noir and abyss back to back has some points and some negs....I'll take the points..good thing I'm on staycation.

Trip to where? I thought you were the same guy?????

staydrunkation?

Figured this would be a good thread to reply in. Just getting started in the craft beer scene and looking for some recommendations. Live in Houston, and find myself waking down the isles in specs on smith and central market overwhelmed.

Don't really have an aversion to any specific beer. Open to all types


Turn me on to some solid beer.

Next BD -moar Hop Delusion and Union Jack. I guess at this point I add I once dated a college softball all American. I need credibility where I can get it.

Pale Ales, Amber Ales and belgian blondes are good starter beers. Karbach, a local houston brewer, makes a good pale ale called Weekend Warrior and it comes in cans. Oasis (austin) Slowride is my favorite pale ale right now....in cans too. St Arnolds makes an amber ale thats decent but if you want to step it up try Green Flash (san diego) Hop Head Red or Bear Republic (northern cali) Red Rocket Ale. For belgian blondes, a good introductory beer is Leffe Blonde. Try Real Ale (Blanco, tx) 4 Square. Its kind of hoppy (bitter) but light bodied.
