Aureus and Simon Girty are good. I think I had the Gouden Brugge when I stopped there as well and it was good.

Two hearted ale is great. Not a fan of Guinness extra or anything I've had from leinenkugel. What type is ST Live? Probably good since it is from ST.

American Pale Ale, I thought I had it at the brewery but couldn't remember. Haven't had a Guinness Foreign extra since my travels in Belize, didn't know they made it here now. I'm with you on the Leinenkugel, it was for my wife (although their Summer Shandy isn't bad on a hot day)

From the same Brewery, Wilco Tango Foxtrot is an amazing brown -- from a non-brown fan. The first bottle was $6.99, found it on sale at a local mom and pop, $4.99. Stocked up with 8 bottles.

It has to be like 110 degrees for me to be able to stomach anything from Leinenkugel's, and even then I'm not a big fan.

Having Hercules Double IPA from Great Divide. Very smooth with a sweetness I haven't had from a double before. Quite good and unique.

It has many parallels to a barrel aged stout. Right when that touch of bitterness starts, the sweetness comes in.

I went to H1KB today to get some nicer stuff to celebrate the beginning of the playoffs and end of the semester. I had planned on splurging on some Russian River Supplication, but they didn't have any. So, I picked Cisco's Lady of the Woods and Evil Twin's Disco Beer as my splurges.

Anyone try a new Albion ale? I think it's from Sam Adams, but bottled under a different label
