just picked up some more wet hop. Looked like a fresh delivery.

Imo....

Already ran through my Oaktoberfest, I'm now into my last few Primus from last year.

Texas is going to kick the shit out of USC.  Trojans ain't nothin' but a buncha prophylactics.  

 

The End.

This may be the beer talking but I love you brother and I want to believe.......

Out of wet hop and it’s only almost halftime. Fuck.

Didja see what happened?  Uh huh.  Giddyup.

As I couldn’t find any L.A. specific beers here in Dallas to consume during the game, we went with the California based Alpine Duet as we also recreated the bacon wrapped hot dogs they were selling on the street outside of last year’s USC game. Good times and hook em, bitches.

Second of my four pack of peanut butter Temptress. So decadent. 44e33a29bf98cceb0fa7617d75d8740f.jpg

Brazos Valley Brut Ipa. Brut is now all the rage. Expect trips at your local taproom.

My wife will be in Houston briefly on Friday for work and I always try to work those out of town trips to have her bring me back any good local beers not available here in Dallas.

Are any of the SpindleTap IPAs (other than Hop Gusher, which I’ve already had) generally available in stores)? Any other generally available local recs? I get the impression B-52 are taproom only? Assuming Brash are likewise.

Also, she’ll be in the downtown area and then traveling back up 45 to Dallas. Any recommended store that happens to be right there on her way? Always try to make this process as simple and less ass whippy as possible for her.

TIA

Spec's Downtown has Spindletap Houston Haze IPA generally when available and some other Spindletap seasonals. Check their website on the Smith Street location to see what is in stock. If she is going to be downtown, that may be the easiest.

I happen to be in Denver today and I just found out earlier it’s the Great American Beer Festival. Picked up a pair of single day passes for tonight. Any breweries I should look for? I get unlimited samples with my ticket.

4 hours and 39 breweries and 171 beers (if I counted correctly) later. GABF is so much fun. I would plan a trip around it. Culmination from Portland, Horse and Dragon from Ft Collins iirc were my favorites. Some Sasquatch stouts from a brewery in Sherman were awesome as well. I think it was call 903 or 930.

Is there any place in Dallas that would still have the peanut butter temptress or am I out of luck until next year?

Webb Chapel Beer and Wine maybe.

Had this with AUTF 7 months or so when they first released it. This second batch that was released last saturday is just as good.

Easily the best IPA ive ever had and maybe the best IPA in the world. No hyperbole, this beer is perfect.

DDH Ghost is incredible. I was in Broussard last weekend for the release. Visited Bayou Teche as well up in Arnaudville but wasn’t that impressed.

Crazy how they were a mediocre brewery for a few years, then changed gears and are now one of the best breweries in the US. Almost everything they have released over the past 2 years has been extraordinary. Not good, not great, but extraordinary

Congratulations on drinking every IPA in the world. 

Uhmm, ABGB just won GABF large brewpub of the year FOR THE THIRD TIME IN A ROW.

This is America's best brewery.

Many other Austin breweries have medaled as well, including ABW, PHP, and NXNW. 

On my phone at a tailgate so apologies for the brevity w specific awards

PHP won alpha king for fully adrift. 

Almost time for TCU vs. Texas on the field! Off the field and in this beer nerd’s beer stadium, it’s Fort Worth’s Martin House vs. Austin Beerworks. Who will win?

Well, based (solely) on this “head to head” matchup, we gonna kick they ass!

Martin House’s “NE IPA” with lactose is surprisingly bitter AF. Like wreck your palate for the rest of the day unless you eat something to get rid of it.

Interestingly, this beer had an initial (& admittedly very early) Untapped rating just a few days ago of something crazy high like 4.33. It is now currently sitting at 3.88. Don’t think I’ve ever see a beer take such a ratings dive. Avoid or, if you must, only buy a single can or naybe it’s better/not bitter on tap.

When I think Greenspoint, I definitely don't think hyperbole.

You saw my post.

You saw the score.

You are welcome.

This is the way Black Butte should always be.

Any beers made in Manhattan Kansas?


Tall grass? Although think they went back to being just a brew pub and closed the distribution brewery.

Turning Point Beer in Bedford. Come for the bad ass IPAs, sours and other styles you can have on tap. Stay for all the great cans of those you can take home. Or is it vice versa?

8 ABV IPA smooth then hot.  I split this w my FIL tonight

Reuben's Brews (SEA) and Three Magnets Brewing (Oly) are steady at the top my WA favorites

Slightly odd question:  can anyone elaborate on Mosaic or El Dorado hops?  I like IPA and Pale Ale beers, and I've noticed that I tend to have an almost immediate negative reaction to certain IPAs.  It happened last night with a NXNW Zombie Dragon, and also recently with a Tupps IPA.  I get terrible heartburn and a bad itchy taste, almost as if I'm allergic to something in the beer, which wouldn't surprise me, as I have several food allergies.  I started looking into the hops used in those beers that cause a problem, and Mosaic seems to be the most likely candidate.

Is this a popular hop?  If it's the culprit, I'm kinda fucked when it comes to trying new beers unless I can clear them beforehand.  El Dorado was also in the NXNW brew, but I don't see it used almost anywhere else.  I think it's the Mosaic hops.

It would be just my luck to have a beer allergy.

Mosaic is very popular.  Maybe the most popular hop in the world.

Hop hipster: I like hops you’ve probably never heard of...

 

Also, I would assume Citra might be the most popular hop but I equally love Mosaic (just like I equally love both of my kids).

 

Spotted Cow up in Wisconsin. Not bad at all.

Tried this last night. Reminded me of Yellow Rose, in a can.

Would you say it’s the best pale ale you’ve ever had? Possibly in the word?
