Is Bonfire Blonde the stuff that tastes like Stag mixed with liquid smoke?

Something like that. I only had one swig

Dang, Swirls, I hope those flights were 2oz pours.

3oz pours. $20 for a high gravity flight. I did two separate flights for $40 total.Regular non-high gravity flights there are 4oz pours for $10.

Jim would be beside himself if someone told him it cost $20 to sample four different beers.

Bought a sixer of Stone's Xocoveza. It's... interesting. I need to down another bottle or two to get a better idea of my overall thoughts on it.

I did the exact same thing last weekend. I really dig it. But I'm a sucker for sweet stouts, in particular the whole Mexican chocolate thing. It's definitely a late fall/holiday season product.

Outrage in Texas today, one of the more respected microbrews in Houston, Karbach Brewing, sold out to AB-Inbev.

Have you had any of the Clown Shoes spicy chili stouts? If not, try their Luchador en Fuego. Amazing.

I have not, but I will now.

Enjoyed Innis and Gunn beer. Variety of oak barrel aged. You get that flavor and sweetness but lower Abv and drinkable.

Well, that sucks.

Had a bottle of Unibroue La Fin Du Monde last night. Not my favorite Belgian style, but still really really good.

WHAT?? Unibrow makes great beers and FDM is one of the best.

All the foreign beers selections look the same on the shelf, but I remembered unibrow from this post. Delicious.

Weird, I used to dislike Belgian Ales and Abbey and all that skunk funk. Don't know if it is more of my taste changing or selective luck with finding some good ones
