What beer are you drinking RIGHT NOW?

[jmanic]

Usually, I just drink one 8% DIPA, so I try to not buy crap. I have 1 good/decent one and end it.

If I know for sure that I am having more than 1 beer, such as a party situation, then I start with the cheap stuff and work my way up to the good stuff. Otherwise, I can't drink the crap after drinking the good stuff.

On the other half, in a party situation, it is a dangerous game to leave the good stuff, when someone who just likes can art takes the good ones and doesn't appreciate the beer.....or the guy who seems to keep count or just likes to pound beers, decides to try one of the tall can beers.

About 2 years ago, I almost had a heart attack when I had never had a Heady Topper and my sister was having a party and had a 4 pack mixed of it in with the swill and didn't know to quarantine it for me, or at least for a select few. Then you get people who are like "Gee, I haven't had beer from a can since college when I drank Meisterbrow or Hamms so I'll try this Heady What is the name on this big can?"

If I'm at a party, you won't find my beers unless I want you to.
I bring special decoys for amateur hour.

thanks for the hint @KenS - in in some sort of cosmic synchronicity, i parked next to @JDurk at the liquor store.....

haha, John texted me that he saw a bike in the lot next to him and then saw your post. Too funny! Glad it worked out. I bought a 4 pack but saving it for Sunday or something.

Victor's Liquors, Barrington, NJ - they had 4 cases left at 5pm

Just grabbed a few four packs!

 

[jmanic]

It's true what they said, glad I did.

 

[pygmypony]

Nice.
That one is on my radar.

 

[elzoller]

Too bad BARRIER is so far.
Seems to me they don’t GEt much buzz. But they put out some very decent brews.

4.0

Tonewood Fuego

This is excellent. 6.2% Nice full mouth feel - balanced malt and bitters - tones of citrus with that wet pine forest nose.
Sh*t Yeah!

I’ve seen Cypress Brewing distributed at Bottle King. Hopefully they will get this one too.

Hoping to score some of this. The Runway Models was a pleasent surprise. On the other hand, I feel like I wasted some $$ tonight on shelfies. The Ninja was ok for an old school double, but the beer pictured below is tasteless crap...at least for me. Tastes like that Brotherton in the green can, yuck. But at 9 bucks it’s a decent wife decoy (I’m hoping she falls for the marketing).

Can't speak to Fog Monster, but liked Ninja v Unicorn.
Thought it was a pretty good Heady clone, somewhere between Heady and Second Fiddle.

S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y NIGHT!

Greenpoint Publicity Stunt,
again courtesy of my beer ninja.

Brewed with lactose and donuts, kinda as an FU to another local brewer,
since they don't get the love they deserve.
Still don't know how these folks are under the radar.
Everything they do is tight.
Don't tell your friends.

 

[jackx]

Magnify Thing of Beauty. Better not be lactose-intolerant if drinking this DDH DIPA.

Hmmm...didn’t quite get the Heady but will try with a fresh palette tomorrow. Had a crappy evil twin that may have ruined me for the night. BTW, you have the best neighbor ever...fridge full of Jams!?!!?!? I’m jealous.
