Re: What's in the Fridge?

Blessed again by the in-laws with more beer at holiday time.

Dogfish Head:
Palo Santo Brown -- awesome 12% abv beer. Hints of candy, coffee, caramel... Nice!

120 min IPA - Haven't tried. Supposed to be around 20% abv and costs $10 for a 12 oz bottle!!

Burton Baton - Haven't tried

World Wide Stout -- Haven't tried. 18% abv.. dear lord

Ska Brewing - Durango, CO -- Ten Pin Porter: Real good porter. Not as meaty as a stout. Some darkened malt, coffee flavors. Sweet finish.

Ft Collins Brewing - Rocky Mtn IPA - Great hoppy IPA.

Leinenkugel Sampler:
Red Lager
Amber Lager
Creamy Dark
Fireside Nut Brown Ale

Creamy Dark is by far the best of the bunch. I'm not a big fan of Leinie. Most of their beers are watery and lifeless. With that said, the Dark is a pretty damn good beer. I liken it to beefed up schwartzbier. A little more body than a schwartzbier. No overpowering flavors of coffee or burnt malt like porters & stouts. I can drink this one alone. Most of the others I need to drink with some food to drown out the off flavors that mimic mass produced beer (MillerCoors).
The rest are okay. The Fireside is growing on me the more I drink it.
