MLB 51 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Gonna try this latter tonight. Not too bad. Not overly impressed though. A little sour for my taste. Quote Link to comment
HuskerShark Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Couple of holiday beers that helped put up the xmas tree: Seals of approval all around. I have actually had that cherry lambic before. It's awesome! My two favorite types of beer are fruit beers like that, and ciders (if you consider that beer). Can't go wrong with a cider.

The only place I found it was in the Winter Sampler 12-pack. It was quite tasty though! I lucked out by getting into a conversation about beer with the manager of the local liquor store. He'd stashed 3 six packs but had one left over, asked me if I wanted it, and I said hell yeah... Quote Link to comment

It ain't cool to add fruit to your beer. 1 Quote Link to comment

Microbreweries definitely aren't normally my thing, but when I do hit one every once in a while, fruit beers or ciders are normally the way I go. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I picked up some Abita Mardi Gras Bock today, gonna try it later. Quote Link to comment
GSG Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Had a guy give me two 12-packs and a few loosies of Shock Top Wheat IPA. Decent. Nothing to go crazy about, but it tastes better because it's free!! Quote Link to comment
Undone Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Gonna try this latter tonight. Not too bad. Not overly impressed though. A little sour for my taste. It's kind of interesting...when a friend got me started roughly a year ago on the Belgian style ales, I started liking them right away. But at this point, I find that New Belgium Abbey is one of my main "go-to" beers, and when I really want to treat myself I pick up a bottle of Chimay (or possibly another Trappist ale). But it seems like so many of the specialty 750ml singles that I pick up are pretty, I don't know, just "meh." I end up asking myself why I didn't spend the $7.00-$8.00 on a sixer of NB Abbey. The first time I tried NB Abbey, my very first impression was that it was an attempt to copy Chimay Red. Which I loved. Now that I've had more of it, it tastes less like Chimay to me, but is still delicious. I could drink Abbey and Fat Tire any day of the week. I still need to try that Claymore Scotch Ale that carlfense recommended. Quote Link to comment

KJ. Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Ever since the Northwestern game I've been a Goose Island fan. 312 is great, as is Honker's. Quote Link to comment
