irl lol at Triscuit Ale!
I've been drinking Victory's Yakima Twilight, which is billed as a Dark IPA or a strong ale, but to me seems akin to a barleywine like Bigfoot. 8.7 ABV, so it's strong, and malty, yet with a hop finish that lasts for like 10 minutes.
I've been looking for Surly Wet, haven't tried any yet.

I like Anchor's Christmas Ale, but never so much as the first time I tried it. They do change the formula from year to year.
― nickn, Monday, 18 October 2010 20:32 (thirteen years ago) link
problem is come winter time i get stuck drinking budweiser because i dont like winter brew.
― definatelypoopsmcgee (chrisv2010), Monday, 18 October 2010 20:36 (thirteen years ago) link
any dark or brown beer does it for me in the winter. fuller's london porter or wolaver's brown ale f'rinstance.

Miller High Life for me.

i also love thinking about beer at 9:46am.

Winter is like the best time for beer drinkin' -- stouts and porters and all things dark and malty.
Though right now I'm loving Lagunitas A Little Sumpin' Sumpin'. Super hoppy, but more citrus/floral than aggressive bitterness.

i don't mind having ipas or more summery beers in winter, getting drunk makes me feel v warm.

winter time beer drinking must be done by my wood stove. cozy beer.

I know! they say if they sell a million cases this year, they'll reopen the RI brewery. we could use the jobs so I guess I better get started on polishing these off.

So I'm doing this thing where I drink the whole beer list from my neighborhood bar. It's going to make me drink a lot of beers that I normally wouldn't even think to order. Like porters, because I hate porters. Here's what I've had so far:
Stone IPA3 Floyds GumballheadLefthand Milk StoutTwo Brothers Domaine DupageGreat Lakes Dortmumder GoldTyranena Rocky's RevengeDark Horse Reserve SpecialO'Fallon Smoke
I started with my favorites but quickly realized that I need to get the unfamiliar ones out of the way first. Actually like the porter, which is surprising. The Tyranena is a brown ale that was really good and a style I don't normally like.

Add Metropolitan Flywheel Lager to the list. Too light and fluffy though.
― Jeff, Thursday, 21 October 2010 23:18 (thirteen years ago) link
lately... coors, bud. in 16 and 24 oz cans. dark times.

Cool project, Jeff. I should try that!
Currently enjoying a BridgePort IPA. Solid if unspectacular.

i always want to send ian $20 in the mail when he posts like that
― john water (harbl), Thursday, 21 October 2010 23:29 (thirteen years ago) link
you can paypal me, harbl! ;) it's not that i don't have money actually, i just spend it on food and weed and records and so lately i have been trying to keep the beer budget low.
― not everything is a campfire (ian), Thursday, 21 October 2010 23:32 (thirteen years ago) link
For some reason I really am not a fan of Bridgeport's IPA - it tastes like the homebrews I've made which isn't a good thing.
― joygoat, Friday, 22 October 2010 00:18 (thirteen years ago) link
Still drinking the list at my local:
New Holland The PoetFounder's Red'sNew Holland Dragon's Milk
All good! Surprised by the poet since I don't normally like oatmeal stouts.
― Jeff, Friday, 29 October 2010 00:08 (thirteen years ago) link
Finally tried Founders Breakfast Stout. Was enjoying it until someone I was with had a sip and said it tasted like soy sauce.
― jaymc, Friday, 29 October 2010 00:26 (thirteen years ago) link
Also, what do you consider yr local, Jeff? Delilah's?
Dmk burger bar. Because they got this drink the list thing, I'm here like every other night.
Turn anything into a game/competition and I'm hooked.
― Jeff, Friday, 29 October 2010 00:28 (thirteen years ago) link
Ha. I think Sheffield's has something like that, too. Anyway, we should hang out there sometime. I loved their salmon burger.
― jaymc, Friday, 29 October 2010 00:33 (thirteen years ago) link
(DMK, that is.)
A byproduct of drinking the beer list is that I'm most likely going to end up eating the burger list as well. Somehow that seems less glorious.
Let me know when you want to go.
― Jeff, Friday, 29 October 2010 00:40 (thirteen years ago) link
Oh no, not in my home bar!!!
Green Flash Le Freak. Tasty, potentially deadly.
― Jeff, Wednesday, 3 November 2010 00:47 (thirteen years ago) link
North Coast Pranqster. Drinkable. Tasty.
Wow, I suck at describing beer. Especially while actively drinking beer. Just try everything.
― Jeff, Wednesday, 3 November 2010 01:14 (thirteen years ago) link
I had a Le Freak a few days ago. Will drink again.
