Beer Time

i've had two new ones over the past couple of days ..... Pennsylvania Brewing Company's "Penn Gold" lager and Fredrick Brewing Company's seasonal "Snow Goose Winter Ale". the snow goose ale was very tasty with minimal head. the penns gold lager had nice lacing with little aftertaste. both were good brews ..... nothing outstanding but i've had worse.
 
hey john styrnol .... while drinking that snow goose ale, i spent some time lurking on the backpacker.com forums. one of the threads that i read through took me to the wildernessutah.com site. you live in a beautiful state, my friend. west virginia and virginia are beautiful also .... just in different degrees.



take care and enjoy the new year.

Utah is awesome, for some other pics, click on the My Home Page in my signature block.
 
Not really a new beer but I just had some Sierra Nevada Pale Ale this week, and I think that's going to be my new beer lol. Damn it was good! Me likey:chuckle:
 
surfer - i agree. i recall that the sierra nevada pale ale was the number one beer in a runner's world review a couple of years ago ..... that's when i first tried it. sierra nevada pale ale is one of my mainstays, along with dominion brewery ale. i notice that the local grocery store also stocks the sierra nevada porter and maybe a stout ? the porter is pretty good also.



john - i followed your home page link some time ago. i'll check it out again.

Yeh I couldn't believe it, especially after drinking that and other good beers I seriously don't know how people can drink Coors, Budweiser etc blechhhh, Bud Ice had to be the worst, what a disgusting after taste. That Pale Ale was top notch, I searched online and it got nothing but excellent reviews. Saw something that said it was the beer that kinda started the whole boom in micro-brews.
 
Just opened up a bomber of Ballast Point Dorado Double IPA, very tasty, hoppy brew, clocks in at 9% ABV. For all HopHeads to Enjoy. Cheers!
 
last night i had a Harpoon Winter Warmer, which is advertised to have overtones of caramel. this one seemed to have a strong cherry taste to it. i rarely encounter beers that i don't like .... this is one of them. the other was a belgium wheat beer that i had a few years ago.



followed it up with a PA Brewing Co. Penn Gold. this one is fairly good.
 
hey john - sory i never posted those pics . . . im still waiting for my buddies camera . . . have you tried the new arogant ******* oaked ale . . . had one last night . . . just delicious . . . also - sam adams has a new brewmasters pack with a new (well, new to the west coast anyway) honey porter . . . ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh i cant wait to taste one . . .
 
another dogfish head 60 min ipa tonight. these are so good. i still have a 90 min ipa in the fridge.



i haven't seen the penn bock anywhere yet. i'll have to watch for that one.

Yup, had a bottle of the Stone Arrogant Oaked, very tasty, I think I still have 2 bottles left. Have not had the SA honey porter yet, on my list.
