Just finishing up a FW Parabola 2012. These guys know how to brew and how to barrel. Amazing stuff.

Why hello there, Hopslam!
I had a few Hopslams during the Superbowl. Man, is it ever good. Tonight is starting with a Napa Smith Hopageddon.
Having some Ommegang Aphrodite. A bit fruity for my taste, but a good way to start the night. Generally I'm a pretty big fan of Ommegang.
I am not content with saying "when it's gone, it's gone" - I would like some to enjoy down the road.

Drinking a bomber of Revolution Double Fist DIPA.
I'm drinking an Epic Santa Cruz Brown Ale. This has a lot more hop presence than a typical brown, kind of pushing into the black IPA range. I've had three releases so far this year, they change it up a bit each time. This one and the last have some flaked oats in the mash which gives the beer a very nice body.

Enjoyed the heck out of a bomber of Pipeworks Galaxy Unicorn IIPA tonight. It's no wonder that Pipeworks was named best new brewery of 2012 in one site's reckoning....

Did a little flight of beers last night: Firestone Walker Union Jack IPA, Deschutes Red Chair NWPA, O'so Hopdinger and Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA and back to O'so Hop Whoopin' IPA. All great in their own way and worth seeking out. I sure am glad O'so has finally made it to Illinois.
