^^Beatification:)... Alpine Barrel Aged Token...not good...took an unintended sour turn...infected in a bad way... Bell's Batch 9,000...lightly raisin-y...less so than DFH's two raisin brews...very pleasant/smooth...most times I would prefer a chewy raisin, but this was a nice surprise...better than I remembered... more '11 Founders Backwoods Bastard...great, but I still prefer '10... Surly Coffee Bender...try it...tell me what you think...I've had it a few times & am sold... '10 Deschutes Abyss...dark molasses yumminess...got better as I progressed through the glass...a definite winner... since my buddy opened that Abyss, I decided to open a '10 Darkness for comparison:)...I liked the Darkness better by a slim margin...both were superb...I think Abyss would be the one I'd choose if neither were aged... couldn't resist creating a Darkness/Abyss blend:)...

there used to be a place called South Bay Drugs that'd ship Russian River...they were super cheap, but they said they were moving to a new store then disappeared...

I usually use http://www.beverages4lessinc.com/ for Russian River...they run out of things often, but are pretty good at restocking if possible... like with most places, they ask that you order 6 or 12 bottles...e-mail your order/zip & they'll send you a quote...

hurray for hoppy porters:)...I might grab more tomorrow... having some Epic Brewing Fermentation Without Representation Pumpkin Porter...

Two Brothers Cane & Ebel...

Boulevard Smokestack Series Seeyoulator Doppelbock...like it as much I did last year...cedar goodness...

Brewdog Hardcore IPA....hadn't had it in some time...grandiloquent...

New Albanian Yakima Rye, Upland Winter Warmer, Sun King Westy, Founders Red's Rye & now Sierra Nevada Ovila Quad...

^^cool...I've been thinking of taking advantage of Canon's trade-in program & getting something similar... I'd like to see how it does on video...I l've got a general idea from watching stuff on vimeo...

I drank a growler of Breakfast Stout in your honor... Cheers:)...

starting a growler of Breakfast Stout...

time for me to plan for next season:)... too many injuries to manage...

Happy Birthday!...I'm eager to see what beers/bars you choose:)...

Founders Red's Rye...

^^just filled a free growler of Breakfast Stout:)... we think this other sixtel is Ommegang Kup O' Kyndnes...tastes less plaid than I remember...

I wish I hadn't fallen asleep on the Triple.Fi 10 deal this year...I knew it was coming...they make great gifts & eye-openers for friends...

Bier Brewery DFG IPA, Founders Centennial IPA & Founders Red's Rye...

only have a couple left 'til april... now breakin' into a growler of Bier Brewery's DFG IPA....nothing like a 9.1% IPA that's smoooth & with the proper hop presence...approve:)...

I recommend Dark Lord eggnog:)...

killin' the Bier Brewery Pumpkin Ale growler that I stood in line for yesterday...beautiful color, the body isn't too heavy & it's a great choice for Thanksgiving...

ya...added some Boulevard Tank 7 & Bier Brewery Pumpkin Ale to the end of the night...& some Diamond Kings of Heaven sour when at the Brugge... thanks everybody... unfortunately, my twitter ban continues...

there were two on Audiogon a few days ago for $1295...they must have sold...

How about a used NAD T175HD?...

I'm still going, but barely:)....cheers & have a happy Thanksgiving...

Founders Centennial IPA....a couple:)...I'm old...
