Picked some a' THIS up. Figure I'd save it for breakfast.

Expect it to taste exactly like the name..

I'm actually OK with the maple. You can ferment maple in beer. The bacon... No thanks.

Scott...

Have you ever tried adding real Maple to your wort?

i have a few friends and have read reviews that give this a big thumbs down.

I went to Deep Ellum Brewery's 1st year anniversary tour and they released a honey doppelbock for it. Boy was it tasty but not too sweet. This one will sneak up on you. I highly recommend it

[Viva Las Espuelas]

Any of you Dallasites tried the Temptress yet?

Lulz. Yeah, the best I've heard about it so far is "it tastes weird."

Had this nice Weizenbock on Saturday...

lol. I hated it.

I think it is just a novelty to "try" it. But I will never get it again.

I just found out that Westside Alehouse near my neck of the woods carries Live Oak Hefe and Franziskaner Hefe in a Draft...so I will have to go check it out...

[leemajors]

got the last 4 pack of Narwhal at Sunrise:

Honestly, for a beer, it was just fine. It was Rogue, after all.

For a seasonal pumpkin ale, gotta be honest: coulda used a lot more pumpkin.

Just tried the Wells Banana Bread Beer and I felt the same way. It was a good beer, and I liked the direction it was going, but could have used a starker banana taste

[monosylab1k]

LOL...

Sorry, I don't mix my cereal (grain beer) with other breakfast items.

Yeah, I wasn't a fan. It did indeed taste exactly as advertised, ans surprisingly that was copletely and thouroughly underwhelming.

All of the beer listed in this thread tastes like water (yes, I've tried them all). If the beer isn't 200+ calories a sip, $100 a bottle, and 10+% alcohol then I'm not interested.

Sure would feel a little "heavy" after 4 or 5 of those!

that. Anyone who says you should only tailgate with light beer is a in pussy, ya know, because drinking heavy beer for 4-5 hours straight is a totally practical and healthy activity. The beer I drink isn't even liquid. It's got more of a pudding-like texture but it's what real in beer is. It actually tastes pretty gross and I feel like after about 5 sips, but drinking beer isn't about enjoying it. It's about being able to call people on a message board pussies for drinking less heavy beer than you drink.

figured you could put it in the rotation with the lopez gif

Translation: I don't have refined taste buds so I will bash people who like quality beer.


It's ok. You can continue drinking your Bud light. No one is hating on you.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

I fly to Belgium to buy my beer then I smuggle it back to America because it's illegal here. You wouldn't know what quality beer is if I had a bottle of it and shattered the bottle over your head.

Deschutes Abyss should be making its yearly appearance in the next few weeks.

The release party for it was 11/15 at the Portland and Bend brewpubs.

[leemajors]

Was speaking for TX Abyss fans, sorry. Takes a few weeks to make it down the chain.

I'll bet it does. Besides, I was just trying to make you envious, since I live near one of their two brewpubs.

Maybe I'll go out tonight to the Downtown Brew Pub. Even if I don't care for the imperial stout, I love their Obsidian on nitrotap.
