Now Drinking thread

my roommate just put his RyePA (rye ipa) on draft a few nights ago. it came out awesome, super hoppy but still on the lighter side for summer.

i ♥ rye beers.

i wasn't a regular drinker, would descend into usage over a period of weeks then stop for months. Starting out with tea and then going for the heavier stuff. Funny thing is that it never actually pepped me up, i could feel it affecting my blood pressure and weakening my ability to focus (no really), that's it. But when i would then stop i would be tired for the next few days, until my system had recovered.

Nasty stuff.

Shame that they don't make decaf tea, (maybe they do, can't see how though).

This -

Some $5 red wine from Trader Joe's. I'm actually glad I'm not a wine connoisseur.

no doubt. I quit a few years ago for similar reasons.

they make lots of decaf teas but green tea is pretty much decaf on it's own.

I could fill my fridge with 2 Buck Chuck with the change I find in my car seats!

And finish all of it on the 4th. Gonna do it.

It's still got caffeine innit. It's all poison i tells ya, the thin end of the wedge.

Stoli and crystal light.

Stone IPA (6.9% alcohol)

happy july everyone

yep, just the glass though. i got it from a bar in mont tremblant about 5 years ago. the contents of the glass was my roommate's homebrew, which is a ryePA.

My mate just bought me back a bottle of this 85% rocket fuel. I'm going to a house warming in a couplt of weeks so I think I'll take it there and destroy some people.

Edit: I did try a sip the other night. You feel the burning all the way down. It's extremely similar to heartburn.

had some Sierra Nevada Torpedo Extra IPA last night....its ok, but man if you want the best of the best:

best ipa ive ever had by far. i need to get my hands on a pack of 120 min.

got a brand new bottle of Hendricks today. had a few martinis with cucumber and basil. then grilled some pork and pineapple tacos with chipotle tomatillo salsa.

120 is just way too much, borders on gross.

I like cleaner pale ales -- Lagunitas IPA, Bell's Two Hearted Ale, Half Acre Daisy Cutter, New Belgium Ranger IPA

what did you think of the 90min though?

most ipa's have the bitterness, but theres no flavor, just bitter.

the 90min IPA has just a tint of sweetness and fresh hops.
