Tampa, FL has this newish bar/brewery called Cigar City. Best IPA around! And at 8.5%/$5 pint, something you should not missss

Drinking Erie Railbender Ale. Good beer with hideous packaging, and 6.8%.

holy cow this.
― strongohulkingtonsghost, Saturday, 16 October 2010 04:50 (thirteen years ago) link
certainly not an every day beer or even something i'd drink more than one of in a sitting but that was one tasty beer
― strongohulkingtonsghost, Saturday, 16 October 2010 04:51 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah, apparently 'gansett did an oktober this year. gotta find some, says the lover of perversity inside me.
brooklyn's oktober was watery + blah. tried spaten's, which was too what? winey? sweet? I dunno, I just didn't like it.
hear good things about hacker-pschorr's.

new Brau Brothers Hundred Yard Dash is the shit if you can get it. That and the Surly Wet are good contenders for best overhopped things ive had in a while.

Troubadour Magma. Holy hell that was good. The smoothest, most drinkable tripel IPA I've ever had.
― Jeff, Sunday, 17 October 2010 19:33 (thirteen years ago) link
i agree with the sam octoberfest, i think recipe changed a bit this year. Dogfishhead Punkin....so great.
― definatelypoopsmcgee (chrisv2010), Monday, 18 October 2010 15:09 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah the dogfish punkin is far and away the best pumpkin-y beer i've ever had. the others i've had have been pretty bad, so the bar isn't too high, but I really loved the dogfish.
― tylerw, Monday, 18 October 2010 15:12 (thirteen years ago) link
of course 10-11 for a four pack is a bit steep, but again...its dogfish
― definatelypoopsmcgee (chrisv2010), Monday, 18 October 2010 15:17 (thirteen years ago) link
i know shipyard pumpkinhead is not a popular beer around strict beerists, but i love it.
― definatelypoopsmcgee (chrisv2010), Monday, 18 October 2010 15:18 (thirteen years ago) link
Agree on the DFH. It's like it is brewed with pumpkin as opposed to just squirting pumpkin flavoring in it.
― Jeff, Monday, 18 October 2010 15:21 (thirteen years ago) link
New Holland Ichabod is the only pumpkin beer I've had that didn't make me want to retch.

split a 6 of this w/my dad on saturday--definitely good stuff imo.
― call all destroyer, Monday, 18 October 2010 18:26 (thirteen years ago) link
yes, that is some tasty brew. i dread winter though as i am yet to find a "winter warmer" i like. any suggestions?
― definatelypoopsmcgee (chrisv2010), Monday, 18 October 2010 18:30 (thirteen years ago) link
i hate all winter seasonals!
― call all destroyer, Monday, 18 October 2010 18:31 (thirteen years ago) link
sam winter is a bore; harpoon winter tastes like a christmas tree.
― call all destroyer, Monday, 18 October 2010 18:32 (thirteen years ago) link
im getting the feeling i hate winter brews too. sierra nevadas celebration ale makes me gag, a lot of my friends love it. it tastes like leather crossed with santas choad.
― definatelypoopsmcgee (chrisv2010), Monday, 18 October 2010 18:33 (thirteen years ago) link
sick! (tho i kinda like celebration when i tried it last year)
― tylerw, Monday, 18 October 2010 18:35 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah its good for maybe one or two sips and then it instantly makes me feel like i have to take a dump.
― definatelypoopsmcgee (chrisv2010), Monday, 18 October 2010 18:36 (thirteen years ago) link
celebration is sticky-sweet to me. i can have maybe one.

Tastes are tastes, and I know a person can't possibly convince another that something is "delicious" when it triggers the reactions described above, but man... I could pretty much drink Celebration every day for the rest of my life.

Was in Michigan over the weekend and had a good Saugatuck Singapore IPA.
― jaymc, Monday, 18 October 2010 19:11 (thirteen years ago) link
Also, steer clear of Bell's Oarsman, which was like drinking a Triscuit.
― jaymc, Monday, 18 October 2010 19:13 (thirteen years ago) link
(Coulda been the tap at the brewery, who knows.)
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.
― Santa's Choad (Dan Peterson), Monday, 18 October 2010 20:21 (thirteen years ago) link
love your name.
― definatelypoopsmcgee (chrisv2010), Monday, 18 October 2010 20:23 (thirteen years ago) link
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.
― only ad hominem strawman can troll me (Edward III), Monday, 18 October 2010 21:29 (thirteen years ago) link
but I'm kinda focused on autumn here guyz
im still focused on autumn beers too...just anticipating the winter beer duldrums.
so if you had to pick one lawnmower beer what would it be?
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.

disagree summer and autumn for beer drinkin! haha.

the only seasons I like to drink beer in are summer, spring, winter and fall

i don't mind having ipas or more summery beers in winter, getting drunk makes me feel v warm.
― I see what this is (Local Garda), Tuesday, 19 October 2010 16:20 (thirteen years ago) link
winter time beer drinking must be done by my wood stove. cozy beer.

'GANSETT 'FEST OBTAINED

i like flying dog dogtoberfest but the name is so stupid. also i will never drink a beer called "a little sumpin sumpin."
― john water (harbl), Wednesday, 20 October 2010 22:39 (thirteen years ago) link
