Did some kona longboard on the patio today
Cracked open a Stone IPA and a Green Flash West Coast IPA at the same time this weekend.
Wanted to do a side by side taste test.
West Coast IPA kicked Stone's tail. It wasn't even close.
I've never had Pliny before, but West Coast IPA is the best beer I've ever had. Funny how two years ago I couldn't drink it because I wasn't yet a hophead.

Hopheads unite!
Alaskan Brewing Co. is now at the Hay Merchant. I know nothing about them but it's nice to see a new brewery enter the Texas market.
Alaskan has some good brews!!

I had 2 bottles of it last year.
Honestly I was not impressed with it.
Part of that may be the fact that I don't drink much wine. If you like red wine, you'll probably enjoy it.

5,000 miles Southeast of Dutch Harbor, the jetch is drinking Captain Sig's Northwestern Ale by Rogue
does it come with a free carton of smokes?
And a redbull chaser
I've got family in town and I wanted to send them home with some of Houston's newest finest beer, but alas, I struck out at Specs in Sugar Land.
I had Buffalo Bayou's 1836 for the first time on Saturday night (actually I had about 5 of them). I've been preaching the word for Karbach for the last several months, but BB came out really strong with their first brew.

Finally gettin around to it
As good as the DR?
I still can't bring myself to buying a bomber of it. Wish they would have sixered it.

It is still very good. Like 62strat mentioned elsewhere, the DR release had a little stronger body, but many of the same flavors are still there in the bombers. Still a good DIPA, you'd dig it still Spad McHophead
Aite. I'll grab one next time I'm out.
But I will not use 2 tokens for it at the brewery (if the rumors I'm hearing are true)

Yeah, F that noise
i enjoyed it. i never tried the DR so i can't compare, but i'd buy it again i think for sure.
Bay Area Spec's is supposed to get their shipment of Karbach in today at 4 or 5.
I enjoyed a Rodeo Clown last night. It was magical
Where is D&Q?

giving the deschutes black butte porter a try tonight. pretty good stuff, feels like the good taste of a porter without being too heavy.
Not Houston, but I was up in Salt Lake skiing this weekend and had some pretty decent local brews: Squatters Provo Girl Pilsner and Wasatch 1st Amendment Lager.
