Actually neither do I. I can't wait until the one opens in Bethel Park. Only about 5 minutes from home

I've been really enjoying Left Hand Milk Stout Nitro, anyone have anything else from them?

Also thought the Alaskan Brewing Co. Hopthermia DIPA was excellent, something I wish I saw more around here.

I was in Texas this week, and I tried a few different beers.

New Belgium La Folie I have had before but had to order. It is such a good and drinkable sour.

Karbach Rodeo Clown DIPA - okay but not great. very sweet
Austin Beerworks Einhorn (Berliner Weisse) - paired this sour with a seafood mac n cheese. yum. really good
Brooklyn Ridgy Didge (saison) - wasn't a huge fan but do want to try it again. it seemed to cross the line from "complex" and venture into "too much going on" It had grassy elements, fruity (pear, citrus) elements, phenolic aroma, hop bitterness, heavier oily mouthfeel, etc. The component parts never seemed to come together well.

Nein. Or at least I've never had one that I would ever consider drinking again.

Drinking a White Horse Brueder's Thal (brown ale) on tap. Bartender told me that they're a new brewery and that he basically runs shop from his garage.

So far, so good. :thumb:

I'd like to get into kolshes, but there just aren't many available in PA. It does not seem to be a particularly popular style within the american craft community in general. At least from what I've seen.

I have liked several. The best one I had was the Double Mountain Kolsh, which is a Hood River area brewery. Around here, I think I've only seen the Stoudts Karnival Kolsh and Reissdorf Kolsh.

I'm looking for suggestions on a cereal pairing on a domestic can. I can't read the label, but it tastes like freedom.

I would assume cinnamon toast crunch, but that didn't go well last time, iirc

Speaking of chocolate, my friend got a Boulder Shake Chocolate Porter. Tried some, it was basically chocolate milk

You're trying to pair with Pabst, I assume?
