WAINWRIGHT Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Destihl Hoperation Overload really nice grungy DIPA with a powerful hopped backbone with just the right amount of bitterness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyOldKyDram Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Bit of everything but settling into an Ommegang Fire and Blood Red Ale. Not bad. You can def taste the ancho chilies. Certainly better than their first GoT effort. Still haven't tried the Take The Black Stout, but there's another episode next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DPPSmoker Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I had a Founder's Old Curmudgeon Ale last night. It tasted harsher than I remembered so I had another and got the same thing. The last four pack I had of Old Curmudgeon had sat on a store shelf for a year when I purchased it. The oak, molasses and plum had come together really well on those four bottles.I'm not going to touch the two other bottles for at least a year. I just couldn't enjoy them like I did that last four pack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clavius Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Founder's Centennial IPA. Noticed it's a couple months old but still tastes pretty good to me. Not sure what the shelf life is on this stuff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokinjoe Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Another Anchor IPA at the end of a grinding day. A bit of dried banana chip thing mid-palate, that gives an ever-so-light touch of sweetness. I didn't pick that up before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyOldKyDram Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 April went and got all winter on me, so having a Sierra Nevada Narwhal. Just a couple months back, and the green, vegetal bitterness that had been present is all gone. Very creamy and drinking aight now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very creamy and drinking aight now.This is a rather accurate synopsis when I first grabbed these this year I thought to myself WTF now I have to agree a very nice beer indeed.I myself am 3 deep into the Curmudgeons this evening and I'm glad I bought plenty to make my way through several otherwise boring days of painting my living room,hall and kitchen.

bingstein Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Had my first DFH 120 last night and didn't really think it was too good. The booziness was unexpected (despite its high ABV) and kind of ruined it for me. I did, however, find 3 Dreadnaughts today so I will be enjoying one of those and a recently-acquired Justin Blabaer tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smknjoe Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 (edited) DFH 120 is one beer that I suggest drinking close to room-temp. I know that sounds weird, but I pour it straight out of the fridge into a glass and let it warm up. The booziness subsides and the flavors really start to pop. Kind of like a port or rich red wine (in that you are supposed to drink them room temp.) Edited April 16, 2014 by smknjoe Clarification Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAINWRIGHT Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 The DFH 90 is my favorite in the lineup and honestly never even reach for the 120.Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smknjoe Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 The 90 is the one I drink most of out of that line as well. The 120 is a once or twice a year after dinner dessert split between 2 or 3 people. I used to like the 60 as an everyday IPA, but it's too bland for me now. My daily driver IPA is Racer 5. We don't get all of those cool 3F and ZombieDust releases here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P&MLiquorsEric Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Dfh 120 is wretched IMO. Extreme for the sake of being extreme. A mess of hop extract, syrup and cheap booze. I have tried it numerous times at varying temps too.We rarely get any but our customers go nuts over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil T Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Enjoying some of the years Oberon. I was hoping to pick up a couple 5L's at TPS for next weekend, but they didn't have any..dang it man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OscarV Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 A couple of Ryeclops Imperial Rye Ale by Arbor Brewing of Ypsilanti, Michigan.Very good but it makes me want to search out one that I think is better.And that would be Red's Rye PA by Founders of Grand Rapids, Michigan.Over a year ago a retailer told my that Founders Red Rye PA was being discontinued.I didn't understand this at all.As it turns out it was on hiatis and re-positioned, instead of 6-paks it comes in 4-paks at a higher cost per bottle.
