It's sad to see some independents get bought up by the big guys (ex: Redhook), but if it forces the inbevs and miller-coors to release more flavorable and time dependent beers, it can't be all bad (hopefully).<br /><br />They said they are only having 4 different kinds of Southern Tier, I wonder which ones? I'm a big IPA guy, so if you havent tried Southern Tier's 2XIPA you should make it a mandate to get out to Robinson on Fri and try it, it's definitely one of the best IPA's I have tried. I would say top three.<br /><br />Darker beer guys will probably like their porter, as it is very deep and rich. Phin & Matt's was also pretty good. I'm pretty sure they will also have their raspberry wheat. It's good, and I like wheat beers somewhat, but its not my favorite. However, it is much better than a lot of other wheat beers I have tried.<br /><br />Other great IPAs you should try: Dog Fish Head 60 min or 90 min IPA, Harpoon IPA, Big Hop, Bear's Republic Racer #5, Lagunitas, Rogue, Brooklyn East India Ale, and Victory... to name a few.stellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06858274503706804332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5655628369632362733.post-52176685287633767432011-05-12T08:45:37.964-04:002011-05-12T08:45:37.964-04:00Anyone interested in trying out the Rock Bottom ev...Anyone interested in trying out the Rock Bottom event on Thursday? Good Gibbons has a well-timed week off that night and I'd be interested in trying out those home brews. If I can get permission from the missus, I'd be up for going.<br /><br />Also, I think I'm going to start doing beer reviews on here. I buy a case of craft brew once a month and think I can do a pretty good job reviewing some of those. I'm also seriously considering getting into home brewing. First step I think is to buy a book.Ben Statehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08464869507968855423noreply@blogger.com
