Not sure where you live, but the Market District in Shadyside has it.

The liquor, wine and mixed drinks thread is down that way.

pulled a Gouden Noel 2012 down tonight and finished up with a La Fin Du Monde. Aside from the '12 Noel being amazing, I was thinking maybe it would help with my **** sleep pattern.

In the old days of Braddock, those blanks would have been very different.

tried the southern tier rumking. I enjoyed it more than the regular pumpking, but warlock is still my favorite. IMO the price is too steep, but glad I tried it. Also got a 12 pack of Terrapin Moo-hoo, which was great. I love turning a nice chocolaty sweet milk stout up side down into a glass and indulging.

picked up a mix and match today: 2 fresh squeezed ipas, 2 brown shuggas, a GL blackout stout and a brooklyn chocolate stout. Should get me going before the bubbles this evening.

Curious what you think of the fresh squeezed, eddy. They have cases at save on for $51. Think I'm going to pick one up.

Fresh Squeezed is one of my favorite IPAs that I've tasted this year. Super citrusy. Normally I'm much more of the piney/resiny sort of IPA fan, but that one was fantastic. The citra and mosaic hops are very prominent and it has some nugget in there too, but more just for the bittering.

Hit the Whole Foods in Wexford. Picked up a Cru (wild fermented...billed as 'old ale', so i figured i'd give it whirl) and St. August (BSDA) from Drai Laag and a Bacchus.

The Cru is pretty good. I think this is my first foray into the style, so I really don't know how the ingredients and flavors are supposed to act or how to really define what I'm tasting, but so far it's tasty, better than I thought. I think it may need more "funk" to bolster the savoriness and aromatics, but I could be way off.

Kraftster, any clue what the hell I'm talking about?

Were you the 19-year old with a chopper in who had no clue what he was doing and whose dad was buying him beer?

Yes, then I skid-wheeled out of my parking spot, popped a wheelie, jumped over a Subaru, flung the middle finger to the world in mid-air, landed on a BWM, 360-ed, rode straight through Noodle & Co. without getting cut, made the light on 19, and headed out to the highway with Judas Priest blasting on the set.

What did you do? Get some Havarti cheese and read the North Hills News?

So far had my growler of peach cider and Delirium red.

Peach was amazing. Very similar to the pear cider I got earlier this year, but peach.

Delirium red is a sour cherry Belgian ale. I like it.
