Societe Brewing San Diego,
Crowe the lamb pita was burned to a crisp and it certainly was not moist. However the chef/owner of the food truck had his first child this week. I do not blame him for his errors. In fact I gave him a substantial tip to be used for diapers.
I mean it could go into the food porn thread, but i'm guessing the brews and small plates here are not super affordable.Quote:

I needed some nourishment and while overpriced and not moist it, the pita did fulfill its purpose.Quote:

I have to see if I can convince one of the craft bars to do a tap takeover on some of this monkish stuff. I went to one for Clown Shoes and it was intense.Quote:

Monkish is quite small and has a very small distribution footprint. It is easy for Clown Shoes to do a tap takeover as they are a gypsy-brewery operation. Same goes with Mikkeller, Evil Twin, Prairie and Stillwater.Quote:

Alesmith San Diego. Alesmith is certainly one of my top 3 breweries if not #1. This is my first time stepping in their new location. I'll admit that I had an orgasmic and euphoric moment as soon as I stepped inside.
Ending the night at Mikkeller Brewing San Diego.
I just cracked one open. The flavor is really good. However it was a bit on the thin side and it hardly had any carbonation.Quote:

Well they are releasing it on a weekday and they don't open until 4. I feel confident that I can pick up a pack or 2 of them when I get there after work.Quote:

I think from now on I am just going to stick with the OC beer scene (Noble, Bottle Logic and Bruery) and make monthly trips down to San Diego.
Fuck waking up at the crack of dawn and driving to Torrance and pay $60+ for 4 4-packs of IPAs.
Yeah. It's just ridiculous now. I'm gonna check out bottle logic after and see how tasty their double ipa is.Quote:

Says ya, it's good but you don't want to drink em all at once. Not insulted at the insinuation, I down the first one like kid drinking a float. Halfway through the second I realized I've never had two root-beers back to back. Taste was great but the sweetness was sickening. Now I've got four left in the fridge and the thought of it has me close to gacking.
What horrible choices we must face.
I've tried a couple of them. The 'not your dads root beer' and some other one. A lot of these micros use a ton of sugar and it just gives you a belly ache after a couple. The lady was right though, you're not supposed to have more than 1 or 2 of those in a sitting.Quote:

I agree I've tried 2-3 of these root beers and they are terrible.Quote:

If you are looking for a peanut butter stout or porter, Belching Beavers Peanut Butter Milk Stout is pretty fucking money IMO. I am not sure if they distribute to wherever you are at but you can get it online at craft city or another online beer store.
Yeah I had to take the day off for something else so I did grind out the shitshow and got a 4 pack. It will be released on draft. I am not sure if they will fill growlers though. I am going to wait a few days for the canning shock to subside. I have I Love It and Galaxy Showers and some Spock It and Sticky Green and Bad Traffic ready to go for this weekend.Quote:

Enjoying that lately. A nice balance of sweet/dry for a cider, with a bit of tartness as well.
Indeed it was. Still have a 2nd 4pk in the fridge.Quote:

almost all of my quality beer drinking is kuntmissioner-influenced, and usually kuntmissioner-purchased. this latest find was something I was going to get him for his birthday, but through the goodness of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, his wife grabbed a grip of these earlier today, and they gave me a few! Happy Birthday, kunt, and thanks!
Tree House Brewing Company. alter ego in the glass. shit's the balls.
my glassware game is non-existent.
It is west coast for sure. The hops that they used have been kept top secret. It is an excellent beer for sure, but it doesn't top Tongue Tickles or Citra/Galaxy Showers. They came out with a small batch variant called Dank you for being Ardi which they put massive amounts of coffee in the brew. Quite an interesting take and quite delicious.Quote:

Posting this for Crowe to give him some inspiration on his glass game. Also I can't think of can art that can beat this can. Maybe something from Hoof Hearted but I can't think of any off the top of my head.
Figured we need some more content in this thread which is one of very few that has not been plagued by autism. Currently enjoying a Ny Verden from Mikkeller. Mikkeller fucking kills it in the bottle art department. Tasty brew as well.
Are you hitting up Monkish, bootsy?
No. The releases have become such a shitshow that I can't justify wasting a Saturday morning sitting out in the sun with hundreds of douchebags.Quote:
