tried the alaskan brewing's smoked porter and rogue chocolate stout over the weekend. both were very good. really enjoyed that smoked porter, unique flavor and pretty delicious.

 

picked up a few beers i am very excited to try:

ska brewing rudie session ipa

breckenridge avalanche

odell's levity

 

i got those because i have been drinking a lot of heavy stouts and porters and wanted something lighter that i could drink over a longer period.

 

but i still could not resist getting breckenridge's vanilla porter and tallgrass' buffalo sweat vanilla bean. both of those are extremely solid with really good flavor. i particularly like the vanilla bean for the coffee notes.

 

a friend of mine also gave me a bottle of the boulevard/odell silver anniversary ale. i think that will be pretty solid.

 

should be ready for the NYE celebration.

 

 

Well, how were they?

 

i just sobered up from drinking them all.

 

but i really liked the anniversary ale. i only had a small glass since i shared, but i thought it was pretty good. a lot of people on the internets were not impressed and expected something bolder, i guess. but i thought it was pretty solid.

 

i preferred avalanche to levity, but they were both very good. i also really liked rudie. i can see why people would not like this beer because it tastes very watered down, as opposed to just lighter. but for some reason i really enjoy it. you get the hops flavor, but it does not linger and become overbearing. which is what i want in a session ipa. for instances, founders all day ipa is a really good session ipa, but it really just tastes like a normal ipa, a very good one, but i do not think you would know it had a lower alcohol content just by drinking it. rudie is much different in that it does taste like a light beer version of an ipa.

Idk, I've had some very s****y beers that were ice cold and were still very s****y. Has to be a decent beer to begin with...

Name some s****y beers.

I'm just amazed that Beer 30 Light is not #1. We got that a few times in college. We stopped buying it because no one would drink it, no matter how cheap it is.
