    Having the luxury of living next to Cigar City Brew Pub I occasionally pick up a gallon of Paulina Pedrosa (brown ale). I wish when the next season comes in I will be able to try their Hunahpu's Imperial Stout.

    True but their Black & Tan is decent and readily available. It's my fallback beer if I can't find anything better in the porter/stout department. One could buy Guinness but I just don't find it enjoyable (at least the ones available here in the US).

    It's the most wonderful time of the year!
    With apologies to Andy Williams, but it is the wonderful time of the year when Anchor hits the shelves.

    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    I very very very highly recommend Deschutes Chasin' Freshies Fresh hopped IPA. This is absolutely in my top 10 favorites of IPA that I've had. I have had well over a hundered different IPA's. It's a phenominal IPA and everyone who like IPA's shout try some.

    I'll put the Deschutes on my list. Looks like a limited seasonal so I doubt I'll find it here in Pa. That won't stop me from scouring the countryside though.

    First impression of the Anchor.....not as good as last years. Having said that, I drank the Anchor shortly after soaking my gullet with an IPA from Sixpoint. Clocks in at 103 IBU's so my palate was definitely skewed. I'll have a Christmas Ale this afternoon after I rake my leaves.

    Love Shiner Bock, and the Xmas brew from Shiner just hit the shelves, can't make a beer run its snowing like crazy, so the sixer of Rolling Rocks being chilled on the deck will have to do tonight. I will look for that White Wing on the next run.

    Not my fridge, but, I like almost all beer, even if it's considered to be water by others. It's still beer flavored water, after all. (especially in hot weather, when I don't want some dark, heavy, stick-to-your-ribs porters or stouts) I'm just finishing a case of Octoberfest by Saranac. (yummy,IMO) Some Arrogant ******** is on deck after that. Burrrrrp ! :)

    Lots of breweries have their seasonal mix paks out.

    I'm sampling the 12 beer "Snowpack" sampler by Sierra Nevada...mmmm....tasty variety - and on sale!

    I keep buying those 12 packs for the Boomerang IPA. That stuff is really good.

    I have a nice variety of brews in my fridge....Maybe 10 or so different beers/ales.I came in this evening after spending the afternoon trimming some shrubs in the warm SW FL air... What is it that made me select a stinking Corona and a lime to quench my thirst... There is something about being outside sweating and craving a Corona that I don't understand... Anybody?

    Bottled a 5 gallon patch of dark Scottish Ale last night. 3-4 weeks until carbonated but the taste was quite promising with a hint of smoke. I wish I had added a little anise in the wort but this will have to do for now.

    Got a variety 6 pack as a present at Christmas and had the black lager KCCO last night. Never heard of it(not that it matters), had a nice full body dark beer taste with a crisp finish...may have to look for this one.

    The abv is 9%. The brats were just "ok". I'll revisit them in the near future and try different toppings and condiments.
