Beer for this weekend?

[ChrisMWilliams]

After last night, I need a six pack, or three.

Anything new out there I should try? Gonna run to the store here in a bit.

Some good games the next few nights.

Shocktop is one beer I've just never been able to get into.

After last night I say skip the beer and go right to the hard stuff.

"After last night... "
The Oja at Iowa Brewing Company is (if I remember correctly) 7.6% and is good. Available in a large can at the brewery.

For me, I need something with a little more alcohol after last night. I saw an 18% beer available somewhere, and I liked it (I think it was a guest tap from Backpocket available at Iowa Brewing Company.. and I'm sure its no longer there). May have to settle for Peace Tree's Blonde Fatale at 8._%

When I'm looking for new stuff I grab the sampler pack at HyVee liquor. Good way to try some stuff without buying a whole six pack of something. I'll take a flier on one or two wierd ones and get three or so I'm pretty sure I will like. That's how I found out I like the coffee beers. Who knew?

I've always been a fan of Stone's Go To IPA for a session IPA. Only 4.8% abv and comes in cans now.

Bought a New Belgium Collaboration Variety 12 pack last weekend. 6 different limited release beers that they made with other local brewers. Mostly pale ales and a couple IPAs. All very good beers.

Had something while in Sioux City for work that was one of the strangest beer combinations - yet it was good - Boulevard's Funky Pumpkin. A "spiced sour" worth trying. Haven't seen it around Des Moines yet but I've been looking.

No Busch Light?

Threads like this make me miss the keg shop and their fire sales. Kids today don't know what they're missing out on.

 

[jburke]

[Rabbuk]

Ever clear and Kool aid

If you are talking about for the game this weekend then the correct answer is a lot.

 

[Al_4_State]

Something with a high enough ABV to black the hell out from.

I had Schlafly Pumpkin Ale - 8% and Exile - Oktoberfest 5.1% this past Sunday. Schlafly Pumpkin has been one of my favorites, was disappointed in the Exile though.

Case of Strohs Light long necks... $2.99 plus deposit. Even youth could not overcome those headaches.

Hey CW, is your pumpkin beer power rankings out yet?

Pumpkin sounded horrible to me but you kept at it until I tried the Liene's. Changed my life forever.
