The Booze Thread

[Susquehanna Birder]

The great thing about our weekend is that we stayed at the motel that is literally 2 doors from the brewpub. Drink and stagger home is the way to go. My son and I closed the place on Friday night. I think the employees wanted us to get the hell out, but we nursed our beers as long a possible.

That's the same company that own's Ram's Head Tavern on West Street, whatever they call the location on General's Highway that used to be Rudy's, and the movie-theater-cum-nightclub Ram's Head Live in downtown Baltimore.

Their beer is alright, but doesn't compare to Brewer's Art or Heavy Seas, both in Baltimore.

Well I'll most definitly have to try those two if you think they beat Fordhams.  They must be really good.

Brewer's Art just started selling their signature brew, "Resurrection Ale," in cans.  You might be able to find it on the Shore in a large store that stocks specialty stuff.   I think Heavy Seas has broader distribution than Brewer's Art, so it should be easier to find.  The Heavy Seas beer I know best is called Loose Cannon.  Very good.

If you're ever in Baltimore, the Brewer's Art bar/restaurant is a great place and of course they have several of their beers on tap.  My favorite of theirs is called "Ozzy."

Be warned.  Their alcohol content is higher than most.
It was touch and go Tuesday morning.

Margaritas are good.

I usually wait til lunch for the stronger brews. Try a nice lager for breakfast. I don't like Fosters all that much but for some reason it goes well with oatmeal.

I love drinking in the morning, drunk at 2.  Followed by a nap.  Then dinner and early to bed.

F'n nice day.

Never had the Hellhound. The Immort I had once on tap. Can't remember how much I liked it, so I think I liked it

[hbionic]

Where is that brewed?

[Munson]

Dogfish Head is a Delaware brewery, and I would probably guess one of the more famous "small" craft beer breweries. They had a show on one of those Discovery Channels for a while, and they're beer is pretty widely distributed. Not sure how much of it, if any, makes it out to CA though.


If you're into beer that's a bit different, and strong, you'd like it. The Burton Baton is 10%, the Hellound is 10%, and the Immort is 11%.

I've had dogfish head beers before, but I've never seen any of those.

[Munson]

They're more widely distributed ones are 60 Minute and 90 minute IPA, Midas Touch, among a few others. That picture is beers that are only brewed and released a couple times a year. I think the Immort Ale is only released once a year. Easy to find here in DE, probably not so much the further away you get. Though I have a friend who lives in Chicago who frequents a bar that gets some of their other harder to find brews.

[Susquehanna Birder]

Some of the more limited beers from Dogfish only come out in the larger "bomber" bottles. I scored a bottle of Black and Blue, and I'm hoping to enjoy it before long. We also have a bunch of different limited release stuff. It's actually starting to build up to the point where the bottles are getting in the way. We're going to have to actually drink 'em, I suppose.

It's kind of fanboy-ish to just collect them, don't you think?  Cheers!
