I just finished my bottle of Supplication and holy crap is that beer good. I can't think of anything more articulate to say about it at the moment.

I've been reading what people have been saying on here about this beer, I have to try it. Any where I can get it in the south hills, preferably

I think its accurate to say that literally the only place you can get it within a 200 mile radius is House of 1000 Beers in New Ken.

Samuel Smith's (obviously), Anderson Valley has a good one (might not be in season), and also Breckenridge has a good one that might be a year round one. If you want my suggestion for a stout if you haven't had it yet (it's not oatmeal, but still) i'd go with southern tier double milk stout.

Sam is my go-to, but I'll be on the lookout for the others. Pretty sure Jiggle has Shakespeare, and maybe Young's and the Southern Tier dms.

Not bad, but it hasn't dethroned DogFish Head IPA 60 from its perch above all other IPAs
You do realize that you can go surfing right there?

Yeah, there's so much to do out here. I feel really really old. 10 years ago I'd have surfed, run, biked, rollerblades etc.... Now I'm just drinking beer and surfing the net from high above the pacific...

My advice... Get off yer AZZes youngsters and embrace life while you still have the fitness and energy ;)
If you are still in the SD area, Pizza Port!

Boulder Obovoid is a good one too. I know Hough's has that on nitro at the moment.

About to open my first Aventinus right now.

Just finished the Southern Tier Oatmeal Stout. Gooooooooooooooooooooooood beer. Great rec, thanks all.

Also picked up Stone Russian Imperial Stout. Unfortunately, Jiggle was out of Shakespeare.

I do not. Wheat/hops is not my thing. Hence, Aventinus was not for me. I'm just a malt guy, that's all. Couldn't get through two sips of the A. Just a personal preference.

The Stone Russian Imperial Stout was quite good. Strong, full, some hop notes but well tempered, as the clavier.

This sentence would be great if you removed all the surrounding context.

I shtrate-up know that loads of beer nutz here are more on the hops side, so I fully disclose my pref for the malts and don't hate at all on the other side. Pretty much every beer that's cited here is quality in one way or another. Just comes down to taste.
