Must trys?


Great Divide Yeti - try all variations you can but I like the original the best.
Jester King Black Metal Imperial Stout - If you're in Texas and see it on tap or in a bomber, grab it. You will not be disappointed.
NOLA Irish Channel Stout - might not be the best, but gets bonus points for being local.

do you guys write down all these beers you drink? hard to believe everyone remembers so many obscure brews and often convoluted names. I either write down/type or take a picture of the craft beers I drink.

I write down a lot of them, and take pictures of a lot of them.

Plus sometimes I'll review them on BeerAdvocate.

. I have an app.

I love sour and tart beers, but when I was without my phone and someone at work asked me which he should pick up, I was a deer inthe headlights. All I could think of was expensive stuff or things we can't get here. Eventually I recommened something (1807) that can be found at calandro's.

I went to BA for this one and just hit a couple of stout categeries. Went down the list a couple pages picking a few out.

I've been wanting to try this. I had it on my order from Archer until the dude burst my bubble by changing to that new dumbass ordering format.

Who knows where else I can get my hands on this and some Green Flash Stout?

Samuel Smith's Oatmeal Stout is my favorite one so far. Still a lot more out there to try.

I forgot about the black metal, very good, should be on my list.

I also have an app on my phone, when stuff like this comes up, i look it up.

Recently drank a bottle I had saved from last spring when they released it in 22oz'ers. I will say that the slight aging was very nice.

I know they just released, or will soon release it again. Does anyone know if it will be bottled or only on tap? Maybe cans?

From what I understand, everything-- including seasonals-- should be available in cans by mid to late February.

I think they are doing pint cans of their seasonals, 4 packs.

Photographic memory.

Plus one of the bars I frequent keeps track of the different craft beers people drink if you want them to.
