The grolwer thing being "hey bro, lets stop at the brewery in the hip part of town, and get some fresh beers to go" instead of just getting a six pack
Typically people like tap version better than bottle/can version, just in general. And if you are going with an IPA it would possibly be considerably better for the same brew.

Samuel Smith's Imperial Stout is definitely tasty, but nothing spectacular.
Not sure I get the 93 rating on BA; seems more like an 88.

Good times were had at beer fest. I'll comment on some beers later today when I'm more sober. :thumb:

I managed to earn 8 more badges on Untappd so I guess I did something right without really trying. :lol:

Newcastle Black Ale is to be avoided.
I unfortunately have five left and I don't even know if I would want to use it for cooking.

Got a Founders variety case, dirty basterd scotch, pale ale, Centennial ipa, and Porter. All were awesome, Founders makes some great beers. I got rocked too.

Almost got a growler filled with green flash palate wrecker, but $27 was too rich for me. Anyone try that?

Centennial IPA is good stuff. I believe Corvidae described it as "tastes like west coast, goes down like east coast". Probably a good description.

I tried Green Flash's West Coast IPA last night. It was pretty good, about as hoppy as I like. The vendor was appalled that I got "just the IPA". Lulz.

I believe Old Curmudgeon is due out in March. Can't wait to try it.

I'm driving a couple hours today to take columbia sr. out for his birthday at their local brew pub. I don't have the highest of expectations, but several Czech pilsners will be consumed.
