I just got a mixed pack of Flying Dog beer, these are the ones with the crazy labels on their bottles. They have amber ale, pale ale, IPA, hefeweizen, porter, maybe one more... These have nice distinct flavors unlike some other mix packs I have had before where each "different" kind of beer tastes about the same.
I don't know how I missed this, Here's my current selection from the Kegerator On Tap Left Hand Milk Stout ****So freaking good its out of control****** As soon as I'm done with it I'm getting the Youngs Double Chocolate In Bottles Sweetwater 420 Sweetwater Festive Ale Black Sheep Saparo Big Hoppy Monster Dog Fish 90 Minute IPA (on a search for 120) Fullers Vintage Ale(1 bottle) Various BS like bud, bud light etc...for friends when they come over. Beer that I can't get and I'm really pissed about SWEETWATER DONKEY PUNCH.....WHY LORD WHY....WHY WOULD YOU TAKE THIS SPECTACULAR BEER AWAY.....WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY I SAY A LITTLE PRAYER EVERY NIGHT BEFORE I GO TO BED....PLEASE LORD BRING BACK SWEETWATER DONKEY PUNCH. I picked up about 30 single bottles the other night at TOTAL WINE on Barrett, I'll report back if I find any I like. On another note I'm about 12 beers away from getting my Stein at Taco Mac.
big hoppy monster is back in season? fuck yeah!!! havent had the left hand milk stout, heard good things about it, but I did have the left hand oktoberfest and it was the best oktoberfest i have had this year
I have a keg of Bass now in my kegerator, and it is damn good! It is way better than I ever remember it being in the bottle.
Green's has 60 and 90 available on their keg list. If 120 is available in keg form, Green's can definately get it. http://www.greensbeverages.com/keg-atlanta.shtml 404-872-1109 .
I have found 120 minute IPA, the problem is they won't ship it to GA, so I may have to ship it somewhere else then here. They only brew it three times a year. They have a Brew pub in Deleware and I have family there so if they have it at the pub maybe I can get them to pick it up.
A few freinds and I just started brewing our own beer. We started wiht an IPA. It'll be ready to drink tomorrow. I'm excited
According to their website for 2007 they brewed it in Jan, May, and Sept. Hopefully they will keep the same schedule. If so I say road trip!!
http://www.jointogether.org/news/headlines/inthenews/2004/georgia-raises-maximum-for.html If it was this law, it shouldn't be an obstacle any more...
120 Minute IPA Availability: limited - 3 releases scheduled for 2007 Release Date: Jan, May, Sept. 2007 Too extreme to be called beer? Brewed to a colossal 45-degree plato, boiled for a full 2 hours while being continuously hopped with high-alpha American hops, then dry-hopped daily in the fermenter for a month & aged for nother month on whole-leaf hops!!! Our 120 Minute I.P.A. is by far the biggest I.P.A. ever brewed! At 20% abv and 120 ibus you can see why we call this beer THE HOLY GRAIL for hopheads! 20% abv 120 ibu In case you care... the average 12 oz. serving has 450 calories. The problem is that the law only goes to 14%. The 120 minute brew is 20%.
Ahhhhh, so its more than the now legal 14%. Not too many beers fall into the category, which begs the questions, why did the legislature even bother limiting them?
Attention Milo I have found your 120 minute brew in Atlanta. It's at the Green's on Buford Hwy.:beer: Enjoy
or you can order it from the online beer stores... Greens shouldnt have it since you cant buy beer that has higher than a 14% content in georgia... I got 4 of the 120 minutes from a store shipped from Oregan.. It's tasty, its almost like eating a bunch of hops, and it sure feels like 20% abv. The website is http://www.liquidsolutions.biz/main/ shipping is by the box, but the prices are fair. and it took just under a week... I still have three left, thoes are for New Years Weekend!!!
Numbers ale is brewed specifically for concentrics restaurants. so you can get it at One Midtown kitchen, Two Urban Licks, Trois, TAP, Lobby, Room, Stats and piebar.
ummmmm beeeeeeer.(quoting homer simpson) I too am a fan of-Yuengling.I smuggle I mean I purchase it from another place that is not here.Next guiness,than Bass, an occassional Rolling Rock(where did that come from?),and ??.No girly beers here.If it has the word light in the name it is not beer.(just mho)
New one for any of you that like wheat beers, Leinenkugel's Sunset wheat. It is very similar to Hoegarten, but brewed here in the States. If you like the sweet stuff, they also have berry wheat and honey wheat, but those are a bit sweeter than I care for. Website for those of you that want to know a little more about it. I never had heard of it until I started working for Northeast sales, but it is good stuff!
sunset wheat isnt bad. really strong blueberry flavor. i enjoyed ABC's version of a hefe. reminded me of the hop aroma of hoegaarden without the spices. estery finish and pretty fruity
Personally, I am not a fan of the Sunset Wheat. IMO, it has way too many flavors trying to overpower each other (plus, I am not a big fan of fruity beers)
i tried Full Sail Amber this weekend. I was yummy! and Abita has a high gravity now called Andygator and a IPA called Jockamo I.P.A. you can try them at The Depaux (sp) in Decatur. good stuff. the Andygator is quite mild for an 8-9% beer.
I tried it and it's 'okay'. Would I buy it again? No. Would I drink it if given to me....I'll drink most any beer that was given to me...haha.
I have had the Jockamo (at Taco Mac) and it was ok, but nothing special. IMO, there are better IPA's out there (Sweetwater is one)
I wanted to buy some when I was at the brewery a couple weeks back but was too broke at the time. In another couple weeks when I'm back up there to move my little sister out of her apartment I'm going to bring some bottles back, lemme know if you want any.
bobby bring back a lot of other random shit they make. i want to try their liquor de malt (complete with authentic brown paper bag)
I just got back from FL. I have 3 bottles of raisin d'extra, and a 6 pack of 120. Had one of each for the first time last night. What a buzz!!
i agree, no the best. one of the more mild flavored IPA out there. but abita makes a low flavor beer all the way around. even the high-gravity beer is mild, relatively. i think the best IPA i've had in GA was made at Twain's. the brew mater made one that was more of a RIPA. Red, India Pale... it had an amazingly smooth body with a nice crisp finish. i was the perfect beer to watch a football game to. yummy! i'm not sure if he's still brewing that particular beer, but he really made a great flavored IPA. we should start a G2G at the different brew houses in atl. i know i see a blue WRB bug-eye wagon almost everyday in the decatur area.
OH YEAH, i found a place that sells Dale's Pale Ale by the 12 pack!!!! Jax Package on College, just past Sam's Crossing toward Avondale. They carry the whole line of their beer. Here's the brewery's website http://www.oskarblues.com/
Like I posted in that other thread CoolRex, check out all of the Stone beers. The Ruination IPA is my favorite, but they are all good
