tanstaafl2 Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Came upon 3 more 4-packs of Bourbon County Barleywine Ale so took two of them home and left one on the shelf if there is any interest from local SBer's. Having one to kick off Blizzard Mania 2014, part deux! May take the next one to the hot tub and so how long it takes to get so vasodilated that I pass out...

bingstein Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Had a really strong urge for a good beer so I got a 6-pack of Hopslam. While buying it I had some Zombie Dust. I don't really know much about beer but I'm pumped about today's beer events Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bingstein Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 For not knowing much, you grabbed some tasty beverages. Kick back and enjoy! Just remember how strong they are ...Working my way through a Southern Tier Compass bomber right now. For a beer that I bought in the winter from the "new" shelf", exceptionally surprised. Fairly light with a nice citrusy finish. ST calls it a Spring-Summer seasonal - I'll agree. This will be perfect once the weather stops being so crappy.-- Ravensfire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighInTheMtns Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 I've got a buddy who told me to get the Hopslam. It's really great. I know I like good beer but damn it's hard to figure out what the hell is out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MyOldKyDram Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) It is. Sporadically. I'll grab you some next time I get it in.Eta: you should've gone to Beer Trappe tonight. They had ZD, Permanent Funeral, and Hopslam on tap. That's pretty epic hops right there. Edited February 12, 2014 by MyOldKyDram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wryguy Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 I have tried several of the Ola Dubh's to include the Ola Dubh Special Reserve 1991 vintage and although they are nice so far I haven't found enough that is distinctive about them to warrant the fairly pricey cost. Will be curious to hear what you think.Distinctive, viscous, and overpriced. Only got a bit of the barrel influence, probably because it's well-integrated.

tanstaafl2 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Distinctive, viscous, and overpriced. Only got a bit of the barrel influence, probably because it's well-integrated.Yes, sounds about right. I like the JW Lees Harvest Ale finishes (Port, Sherry, Calvados, Lagavulin casks) as well but they cost way too much to be worth it for me other than as an occasional splurge.
