Why didn't you wait a week and go to ZBF/Great Thirst?

I was just at Costco (Orland Park, IL) and saw that they have a decent selection of bombers/750s for the first time. Also some ciders. Previously they often had a couple, but today I saw:
Galaxy-Hero Revolution Double Fist Goose Island Matilda and Sofie Ballast Point Sculpin Stone Arrogant ....... Punk IPA Firestone Wookey Jack Ten Ninety Imperial Porter Dogfish Noble Rot Strawman Angry Orchard Yeti Imperial Stout La Fin du Monde J.K's Scrumpy Hard Cider Crispin Tripel Karmeliet Chimay Blue Allagash Curieux 2013 Limited fresh hop hommel bier Duchesse de Bourgogne Maya Saison DuPont Lindemans Framboise Lambic Delirium Tremens Gran Missionario Sam Adams Stony Brook Red Breury Mischief Brother Thelonious One Abbey Tripel And the 4-pack of Stone bombers for $16: Stone IPA Self-Righteous Arrogant ....... Imperial Stout Progress! |
As of about an hour ago...2014 Three Floyd's Dark Lord. It joins a few bottles from 2013, 2012 and 2011. Not the best weather compared to other DLDs I've attended, but not the worst, either. Each year 3F seems to do a better job of managing the crowds, though they seemed to psych people out with the line this year by adding more back-and-forth once you stepped into the north side of the warehouse.

Light beer?
You had me going until you got to Coors Light. That is really not worth the aluminum it comes in. beeradvocate.com gives it a awful rating. If you must drink light beer try Sam Adams Light, it gets a good rating. Do a side by side taste test and you will see why it is the better choice. Just saying.

I love the fall, if only because it makes me want to crack a nice stout when I sit down at the TV or computer after a long day at work and putting the kids to bed. This is also the time of year when a lot of the more experimental seasonal brews are released by the craft brewers. So, in a gut check to organize my nightly selection and in anticipation of some nice drinks over the next few months, here's what I have in my beer fridge right now:
Left over from summer: Simpler Times Lager (best canned six-pack $2.99 can buy; thanks, Trader Joe) (WI) - 12 oz can Butternuts Heinnieweisse Weissebier (NY) - 12 oz can Great Divide Samurai Ale (CO) - 12 oz bottle Great Divide Belgica IPA (best new beer I've tasted all year) (CO) - 12 oz bottle Coors Light (nothing wrong with a macro apres-lawn mowing) (CO) - 12 oz widemouth can Fall: Mayflower Porter (MA) - 12 oz bottle Berkshire Drayman's Porter (MA) - 22 oz bottle Berkshire Coffehouse Porter (MA) - 22 oz bottle Berkshire Imperial Stout (MA) - 22 oz bottle Steelhead Scotch Porter (Mad River - CA) - 12 oz bottle Victory Festbier (PA) - 12 oz bottle All American, craft brewed. What's in yours? |

Only some Tiger Radler.

Some 'Galactic Double Daisy Cutter':
In addition, about this time last year, I was in Brussels where I was able to purchase 6 bottles of '50n4e': will probably move one to the fridge. |
