hsif Posted March 22, 2016 Report Posted March 22, 2016 That was horseshit, she didn't even drink half that beer. What beer? Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted March 22, 2016 Report Posted March 22, 2016 That was horseshit, she didn't even drink half that beer. ...there's beer? :unsure: Quote
LGR4GM Posted March 24, 2016 Report Posted March 24, 2016 Taking some delicious Tropicalia to some folks in Charlotte. Let's see what they say. Also had a very delicious and smooth drinking Irish Red Ale on st. pat's. I loved that this brewery did that because it was like 70 out and a heavy stout did not sound as appealing. Quote
LTS Posted March 24, 2016 Report Posted March 24, 2016 Had to take a trip to the Boston area quickly over the past two days. Decided to drive.. hit up Julio's Liquors.. glad I did. I'll have a lot of new brews to sample over the next few weeks. Can't wait. They had some Wicked Weed there as well. The few bottles they had were in the $18-$20 range which is basically a no go for me. (It's just beer and I can make my own). But it was cool to see a lot of new stuff. Great prices too overall. Cool on Deschutes. I would imagine that it's only a matter of time before it ends up in WNY which would be great. Fresh-Squeezed IPA and Black Butte Porter are absolutely fantastic. Quote
hsif Posted March 25, 2016 Report Posted March 25, 2016 Spent some time in Houston recently, and tried a Fetching Lab - Bound and Determined Stout (chile stout) on tap...... nothing overbearing, and a nice chile pepper finish....... I didn't think I would like it but whaddayaknow...... Quote
LGR4GM Posted March 28, 2016 Report Posted March 28, 2016 OMB out of Charlotte has some good beer, copper was quite tasty, but Heist out of Charlotte has this great blonde ale I'd recommend. Quote
Claude_Verret Posted March 29, 2016 Report Posted March 29, 2016 OMB out of Charlotte has some good beer, copper was quite tasty, but Heist out of Charlotte has this great blonde ale I'd recommend. OMB brews only German style beers. I believe the copper is an alt. I was at a beer festival last fall and parked myself at their tent. They had a huge sign that said: No we don't have any pumpkin beer. No we don't have any IPA. Thus the traffic was very light at their tent and I got to hang out and chat with the brewer as he began giving me full pours of some great examples of Helles, Pils, Alt and schwarzbier styles. Quote

Man, a good alt and a good pils are things of beauty. So underappreciated in the states. *so thirsty for Alt now* Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted March 29, 2016 Report Posted March 29, 2016 I have an order of Founder's KBS to pick up Friday. I'm excited. Quote
Weave Posted March 29, 2016 Author Report Posted March 29, 2016 I have an order of Founder's KBS to pick up Friday. I'm excited. Where are we drinking? Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted March 29, 2016 Report Posted March 29, 2016 Where are we drinking? Somewhere public. Wouldn't want you to rob me and take it all for yourself. Quote
Weave Posted March 29, 2016 Author Report Posted March 29, 2016 Somewhere public. Wouldn't want you to rob me and take it all for yourself. Forget it. Noone wants to be seen with you in public. Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted March 29, 2016 Report Posted March 29, 2016 Forget it. Noone wants to be seen with you in public. They don't really wanna be with me in private either :cry: Quote
Weave Posted March 29, 2016 Author Report Posted March 29, 2016 They don't really wanna be with me in private either :cry: *crickets* Quote
darksabre Posted March 30, 2016 Report Posted March 30, 2016 Man, a good alt and a good pils are things of beauty. So underappreciated in the states. *so thirsty for Alt now* Anytime I come across a micro pils I drink it. You are right, underappreciated. I had a great one during the summer at Rohrbach's after the air show. Sublime. Quote
sabills Posted March 30, 2016 Report Posted March 30, 2016 For those who haven't heard my stifled crying from here, Blue Monk is officially closing April 16th. It's a sad day for me: that place was expensive and usually packed, but its become one of my favorite places to go in the city, especially for when people come in from the suburbs or out of town. I've been lucky enough to have it just a 10 minute walk from my place for a few years now, and I made use of it. No lack of places to get a beer in this city, but its still a loss for the beer culture here. Quote
LGR4GM Posted March 30, 2016 Report Posted March 30, 2016 OMG had a Porter that was really fantastic if any of the Charlotte folks end up there. I literally forgot about it somehow even though I drank that and their ALT mostly. Quote

LGR4GM Posted March 30, 2016 Report Posted March 30, 2016 is it me or does Buffalo do a poor job of having craft beers at more placeS? Quote
Claude_Verret Posted March 30, 2016 Report Posted March 30, 2016 Check out Moor Pat in Williamsville in lieu of Blue Monk. It's another Shatzel bar, and although very small and not nearly as extensive of a tap list you will find some really good craft beer to try. Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted March 30, 2016 Report Posted March 30, 2016 is it me or does Buffalo do a poor job of having craft beers at more placeS? When was the last time you were here? There's craft beer basically everywhere. Quote
LTS Posted March 30, 2016 Report Posted March 30, 2016 Mike has said that he was in some kind of bad relationship on the Blue Monk situation and it forced him to close to save him the headache. He's going to look to bring something like it back but not sure when or where yet. Quote
