Pumpkin Ale aged in Bourbon barrels.

Dark beer weather. Delicious.

Primus, @slorch. Primus.

At Specs on Westheimer in just west of the beltway, they have a very nice beer selection, and all I saw for Live Oak was the Pilz, in 2 facings on the bottom shelf of a warm, seasonal selection.  I move one and see their Oaktoberfest.  I move that one and find 2 Primus sixers.  Production date: 10-31-22.

I bought them.  Can-conditioned, right? and how the fuck does this even happen?  SMDH.

Any danger in drinking  year old beer?

@utee94 doesn't drink any beer younger than a year.

Samuel Adams Winter Lager.

Been a while since I've seen this one on shelves. I'm a fan and prefer it over their Oktoberfest.

I'm drinking the year old Primus last 2 days.

No explosive diarrheas... yet.

I liked the Fezzlewig or however you spell it, in the Winter multipacks.

512 IPA for me, Shiner Cheer for the missus, this after a pitcher of Blood and Honey

Henrietta James is like "another fucking beer?!?!?"

"Daddy, why do you pass out on the couch at 5:30 PM every night?  Is it all the burgers and beer???"

 

(It is possible that I have been asked this question before...)

Trying a local, this is the first beer I've had in probably 2 months

Best Tripel, imo.

Because I am a tightwad, I like the New Belgium Tripel for the spend.  That right there is a different experience though.

For American-made Belgian tripels, you can't beat this one, IMO:

That was one of my early 90s gateway beers. Always something new to try at Crown & Anchor, but I remember this being ubiquitous. And then never seeing it again after 1995.... Until now.

It looks like Division Brewing is the only option around Jerry World? Is it worth a visit?

it's better than nothing, but don't expect much. 

I may have missed it but did Jester King really up their production in the last few years? Whereas we never got Atrial in Dallas before (and I believe it was always only available at the brewery via a long line), now it’s here in big bottles and with no limits.

That or they’re not selling as well as they used to. Saw it at Central Market yesterday.

no one lines up on release day any more and sour beer as category is waaaaay down.

Btw went to Buenos Aires a couple of weeks ago and there’s a legit craft beer scene there. Like, if you’re in a hip area, like Palermo, you’ll see bars everywhere with a large tap selection. They’re about ten years behind the US though. Like you won’t see crazy stuff like you see in the US like bourbon barrel aged brownie batter stout or hazy ipa with azacca & Apollo. Most of the time you’ll just see simple stuff like Baltic Porter, IPA or Scottish ale. I liked everything I tried. Apparently there’s a town called Bariloche in the Patagonia region which is known as their craft beer capital.

Best brewery I went to in BA was one called Strange Brewing. Had a sour that was flavored with feijoa (pineapple guava). cfb80dc84326471b43445768fa916d33.jpg
