This sounds very interesting:

King Crimson brewed by Church Brew Works with Draai Laag and Eleventh Hour. Described as “a hoppy Brett” [sour, from the presence of two types of Brettanomyces] red ale with 7 percent alcohol by volume.

I trust Draai Laag but not really CBW.

Interesting. NoDa that low is ridiculous alone, but below Hoppyum and Sweetwater? Sculpin also relatively low.

Had the Elysian Spacedust IPA on tap the other day. Definitely good -- real strong presence right out the gate, and the aftertaste is nice too.

I'm not good at describing beer. :P

Good day today. FINALLY found enjoy by and delicious ipa by stone. I can't wait and shouldn't have spent $20 on a bomber and six pack but that's the alcoholic side of me making me do it

DL is generally pretty awesome, CBW is so extremely hit or miss. DL being involved though helps. I'd try it.

BadWolf Brewing Company's ESB... a bitter. A type of beer not often seen in the United States but very common across Wales and southern England. This one is really good, and fairly dark in color. Had I realized I was going to stay up for last night's Pirate game I'd have had another pint of it.

I very much enjoy ESBs. They are rarely seen here and rarely done well, but there are some good ones out there.

Never had a beer before? Better try one of the best, strongest quads in the world. She probably poured it down the drain too :scared:

the worst part is that she hated the smell. rochefort 10 is a dozen roses in a glass.

per c2i, I picked up some Old Rasputin. It's getting way too hot, so I needed to try that out before mid April Summer hits.

I'm planning to start my weekend with Dirt Wolf. If the 8.7% isn't enough to inspire the Pens to victory tonight, at least I'll be feeling alright.

Dirtwolf is very good. The Enjoy By which I finally tried was also a smooth drinking beer for the 10% abv. Did dirtwolf put a dent in your pocket? Not sure what the PA crowd pays, I'd assume maybe cheaper because Victory is in PA.

Found little sumpin sumpin.. $8 for a sixer.. not bad

I forget what it cost exactly, but it wasn't obscene or anything. I just got a single bottle though.

This was enjoyable, but definitely not up there with Ten Fidy.
