Picked this up yesterday but haven't cracked it open yet.

That looks pretty cool. If I had some of that I would crack it open for the start of the new season

Nerd! Nerd! Nerd!

 

 

 

 

 

That's when my wife and I are going to drink it.

Tried to make a black and tan last night. Guiness Stout and Bass Ale. It didn't take. Turn out medium brown throughout. Tasted good though!

Drank the Fire and Blood Red Ale. It was ok. I think that my beer tastes have changed . . . it was a little too Belgian-y for me.

Personally, I'd flip 1 and 2 but I can't quibble with the rest of it. Colorado does have some fantastic brews.

new belgium is probably my favorite, but that is mostly because it is safe. all of their beers are very good (except for some of their experimental beers, those are hit and miss). but they do not have that beer that knocks your socks off, like a claymore scotch ale.

It's probably more like 1a and 1b for me. New Belgium makes what might be my favorite beer (la folie, as a sour you'll either love it or hate it) but I like every single Odell beer that I've had.

 

Either way I'm very jealous that Fort Collins is home to both.

No kidding. What are you up to now? 10 breweries? 11? There's too many to hit in a weekend . . . no matter how hard I try.

And that. No partaking for me on that front, unfortunately.

I'm at Trinity Brewing Co in Colorado Springs, drinking their fantastic 7 Day Sour

Brought some home after our long weekend in KC last week. First time I've had it, (I've had their other offering of Brown Ale), and it didn't disappoint.

I have a Pile O' Dirt Porter from Crow Peak Brewing out of Rapid City and Laudenbock Maibock from 612 Brewing in Minneapolis that I will be drinking this Saturday. Really looking forward to it.
