Dr Z Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Had some vanilla porter last night, tasty. Hint of vanilla, not overpowering. Worth picking up a six if you see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K92 Posted December 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 I really enjoyed my first Dale's Pale Ale. I had a Dale's on tap at B Dubs before the MTSU game. It was so good, I picked up a sixer on the way home. Very tasty APA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyzip84 Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 I had a Dale's on tap at B Dubs before the MTSU game. It was so good, I picked up a sixer on the way home. Very tasty APA. Thanks for the tip on Dale's, K92. I've seen it while shopping at the Big Bird and had wondered how it was. Canned beer is definitely making a bit of a comeback. Lately, I've been trying a seasonal offering from Southern Tier, a favorite microbrew of DZ84 (AKA Mrs JZ84). It's considered a strong american ale, and it has some unusual flavors (fig is noticeable) as compared to GL Christmas Ale or 12 Dogs.

K92 Posted December 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 JZ84, tell DZ84 she has good taste in xmas beer... I liked the 2XMAS. I picked it up in a little assortment of singles from Brunswick Buehler's. Try the Bell's Christmas if you haven't already. Good stuff.

I've been looking to pick up some Bell's. I'll have to make it a point now. The other day I bought some Mama's Little Yella Pils from Oskar and it's pretty tasty.

K92 Posted December 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2012 Sometimes, after a Zips loss, it helps to go out searching for some goodies to help you forget about it. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K92 Posted December 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2012 Need more info on the Mayan Last Dog!!! Picked it up yesterday at the tasting room. It is definitely sticky sweet. I asked if there was any distribution or if it was tasting room exclusive and she thought some shipped to key accounts, but she wasn't sure where. They probably had around 20 4-packs on the floor and in the cooler combined. $13. Pretty tasty if you're into sweet stouts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He told me to get it at Acme #15 in Montrose in 4 packs and on tap!! Might be worth heading up to the tasting room to try it before getting a growler of it, though!

Dr Z Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 For those in the area, and those that attend the Tournament at the Q. I had a nice stout at the See Saw Pretzel Shoppe at the Cavs game last week. Pretzels were pretty good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K92 Posted January 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2013 Last weekend I attended a wedding in the Toledo area. One of my wife's cousins made the trip up from Georgia for the wedding but also visited her boyfriend's family in Kalamazoo a couple days before. They were nice enough to bring me a bottle of Bells Eccentric Ale which was quite different. On the way home, we stopped at The Anderson's in Maumee since I had heard so many talk about it. Their selection was huge, but not a lot of American craft beer I hadn't already seen elsewhere. Picked up a few good ones for New Years though. Yesterday, I stopped by Wayne's Country Market in Mansfield and they had installed draft beer sales since I had last visited. I brought home a growler of Rogue Shakespeare Oatmeal Stout which was delicious. They are offering Great Lakes non-bottled brews which was surprising. They had Cleveland Brown Ale & have already gone through kegs of Pumpkin Ale and Blackout Stout. Speaking of surprised, imagine what I thought when I found these at the Ashland Buehler's... A toast goes out to Dr. Z when I try these tonight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Z Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 A toast goes out to Dr. Z when I try these tonight!I had a Gulden Draak last night at the Lizard. Still awesome. I also tried a Three Philosophers. Highly recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Z Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 Found a secret stash of Three Floyds Zombie Dust last night. I know I recommended this place before. They continue to increase their stock. They have also added six more coolers of single beers. I will now highly recommend. It's worth a trip.

K92 Posted January 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 That is an incredible find, Doctor. I was under the impression that no 3 Floyds 12 ouncers were distributed in Ohio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Z Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 That is an incredible find, Doctor. I was under the impression that no 3 Floyds 12 ouncers were distributed in Ohio. I'm not exactly sure how it works, but they keep it in the back. They told me they get a limit of one case a month, and it is sold to there "regulars." I would not consider myself a "regular." I would guess you could purchase. I actually asked for three philosophers, and she said "Three Floyd's?" I said you have it? Don't let em know I told you.

K92 Posted January 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 One of my favorite seasonal is now available in Central PA. Tentative release date in Ohio is February 4. If you haven't tried this one, you should! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K92 Posted January 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Folks were braving the single-digit temperatures for the opportunity to purchase Barrel Aged Blackout Stout @ $180.00/case. Makes me feel less beer crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zen Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 I had a Gulden Draak last night at the Lizard. Still awesome. I also tried a Three Philosophers. Highly recommended. I have one of these sitting in my frige at this very moment! It has a corked top, which I shall be removing tonight during the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jem101 Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Anyone have any good suggestions for IPAs? Looking to widen my IPA palette. My favorites have to be Dogfish Head 60 & 90 as well as Sierra Nevada Torpedo. GLBC Commodore Perry, Harpoon, Goose Island, & Frankenmuth are a few others I've tried that I like, but just don't blow me away. Been enjoying reading through these threads!
