I've got a few Russian River Pliny the Elder's I'll be cracking tonight, along with a 22 of Avery Maharaja. Maybe finish off with a little Pappy Van Winkle.
What will you be hoisting? I don't drink IPAs but I'm sure I can find something to celebrate with![]()

Didn't know there was such a day, seem's everyday is a new "National Something" day, but hey I will def partake as I love me a good IPA.
Hmmm, the "Hop" in the le is what scares me. I can't handle the lingering aftertaste of hops.
I'm no where close to being a beer aficionado. But we went to a local restaurant called "Magic Mushroom" and they had some bottles of a limited run of Stone RuinTen IPA. It was the best beer I had in my life. We ended up tracking down a store that had some bottles and bought the 20 that they had. Even the regular run (whatever it's called) is pretty good.
Prefer their Racer X over this, you tried it?
Just tried this about a month ago on draft, really really good. Didn't realize how much the alc % was until after two pints. Didn't taste that strong at all.
Nah, only tried the Racer 5 and the Hop Rod. leemajors keeps recommending Racer X too. Cali has by far my fav beer in the world with Stone, Bear Republic, and Sierra Nevada, and Anchor ain't too bad either (wasn't too impressed with a Lagunitas IPA I had though).
I agree. It's one of the few beers I've actually enjoyed drinking during a meal.
The IPA's don't really do it for me...if I'm going to drink beer I tend to go for something heartier...
having a few Coors Lights while the bartender s you in the ass. yes...that's "hearty"
I'm spoiled here living in San Diego when it comes to IPA's. With Lagunitas I only look for their limited release IPA's. Their Undercover Investigation Shut Down ale is damn good.
It's really not cool to brag about your sex life in here hearty boy.
?
Everyday is IPA day.
Just personal preference. If I'm gonna drink beer I'd rather go with a malty darker ale, or porter or stout. I generally do red wine socially but I'm not particularly a wine snob. I appreciate great wine but I'm cool with moderately priced decent table wines too. My go to summer maintenance buzz is o's and diet 7up.

dark and stout. got it. not surprising.
I gotcha. I just wasn't sure what you meant by "heartier". IPAs can be pretty hardy. I usually prefer a smoother dark ale, if I want a break from the IPAs.
New Dogtown from Lagunitas is great tbh, awesome place to visit too. BB you would like Firestone Walker as well.
Firestone's single barrel ale in the yellow bottle is one of my favorite pale ales, Union Jack is a tasty IPA as well.
Like his employees.
Whats up with the ankle biting? Have I somehow offended you and don't remember it? And FWIW my employees are a pretty standard demographic mix for San Antonio.
i gave up ankles long ago, cc. sorry.
The only one I found that I like so far is Saint Arnold.
You ever tried Rogue Chocolate Stout? That stuff is incredible.

My second favorite stout is probably Snake River Zonker, but I think you can only get it in Wyoming and Montana.
