The Beer Thread

Tonight I got a six of Loose Cannon for $12. It was $9.50 at the old liquor store.

Still can't pass it up on a hot summer weekend.

Damn!

You can get it around here, (Baltimore area), everywhere for $9.99, tops. I'd take my money elsewhere, if they're stickin' it to you like that.

Try the Victory Hop Wallop, next time you throw down big like that.

I've got a keg of Hop Devil in the kegerator now, which is excellent. I haven't tried the Hop Wallop yet. I'll have to grab a sixer, to see if it's "keg-worthy"

Also had and loved this guy:

Really smooth. Much more chocolate than I was expecting. If you ever want to spend $13 on a beer this will not disappoint you.

Wow, that head looks like a grainy chocolate milkshake!

Jeez, everything is so expensive in Montgomery County, this place sucks when it comes to alcohol. I have to start doing big beer runs outside of this area.

Go to the montgomery county liquor control stores...great deals!

I bought a bottle of Van Winkle for $35 bucks when other places were charging around $50....the White Oak store was huge.

If you come to the ES tailgates, shoot me a PM a week or so before a game.

Tell me what you want and I'll check the prices around here.

If you think that they're reasonable, I'll pick some up and give you the beer at the tailgate. We bring so much crap, I can probably only fit a case.

[d0ublestr0ker0ll]

I'll definitely keep that in mind, SF.

My dad isn't a big beer drinker, but for fathers day I had to get him a bottle of this:



Still the best beer I've ever tried. I also got this stuff for myself:

Just curious what did you pay for the Ruiniation?

I found this place in Hagerstown that sells these beers for dirt cheapn 9.99 a 6er. I picked up a 6er of smuttynose ipa for 6.99 and a 6 er of Lancaster Hop Hog for 7.99. They have ridiculous prices on beer with a very good selection.

Tonight I taste and review the #10...I'm looking forward to it.

[d0ublestr0ker0ll]

$6.99 for 1. pt 6 oz. bottle.

$6.99 for 1. pt 6 oz. bottle.

Ouch, this place is priced way low. If you make a trip to Frederick/Hagerstown you should hit this place and stock up. You can even mix/match sixers, and it's way cheaper than the other place I always mention.

[GoSkins561]

Forgot, they had several Brooklyn brews for 7.99 a six pack. They had a mix and match brooklyn 6 pack for 14,99.

The Lancaster Hop Hog is just "okay". It doesn't even taste like an IPA, IMO.

Agree...100%

It's pretty bad.

I bought a 6-pack and was very, very disappointed. It should be called "Malt Hog".

I couldn't even finish the 6-pack.

I used it to make beer-battered coconut shrimp, and fish & chips.

I was wondering if they mis bottled a nut brown ale.

Was a fantastic beer night for yours truly... Shared half the Fritz & Ken's stout with the ole man, had a one year old DFH Midas Touch, a couple Loose Cannons, a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale and I'm about to have the Ruination...

Stone Ruination IPA



Very cloudy dehydrated piss gold with a barely off-white head that sits strong as a mother****er. Aroma is a pretty strong stench of floral and citrus hops.

Woah, the taste woke me up right away. It's a punch in the face of sweet hops, but it's definitely not as bitter as almost any worthwhile IPA I've ever had. Citrus, floral, grass, pine, earth, Marlyn Monroe's breasts, a perfectly mixed Slurpie, Omaha Steak...you name it. The lacing on the glass looks like Luray Caverns.

The key to this brew is that there isn't much bitterness at all, relative to other IPAs. You do get a little in there, but the taste of the hops is top of the line yummy. Highly drinkable, not much carbonation, medium bodied without much malt at all. Fantastic.
