Rog. Anybody who wants one+ PM if you're in the Atlanta area. They are not wanted by me lol. FREE BEER HERE!

If you are in Arizona, Four Peaks Peach Ale is one of my all time favorite beers. Don't let the bad Blue Moon experience sour you on peach ale.

Yeah IDK something about it sounded good at the time. I may be in PHX this year at some point so I'll keep it in mind.

LOL, I'll try a lot of things once, but I don't think I'll try that one.

Picked up some more beer this weekend...

-Evil Twin Retro IPA - this must be what original IPAs tasted like - not a huge fan
-Flying Dog Tropical B!7ch - a nice, fruity twist on their headline Belgian IPA
-Knee Deep Breaking Bud - have really enjoyed their previous beers (all quite hoppy), so looking forward to breaking this out later today

Just about any product from one of the many micro-brewers in my area.

We are living in a golden age of beer. :-)

Indeed! It's really nice how I can pass off my drinking problem as a neat little hobby! :D

Just kidding.

Had this at the Four Peaks Brewpub inside PHX airport last summer. I concur that it was quite good.

I'm very much not an IPA person, so I thought they were meh.

So why on earth would you order them? :confused:

I'm not a huge fan of lagers, but depending on what the bar has, I may try a different one occasionally. One of our favorite bars has a passport program, where if you drink 80 different beers at the bar, and have the bartender sign off on it, you receive your name on a plaque on the wall. They usually have 4-6 IPAs on tap at any time, and a few others in bottles. If we are there weekly, they may have 1 or 2 different ones each week. So, if we are going to have more than 2 or 3 drinks, I usually need to find other options.

In another 10 days, we will be on the NCL Epic for a week. While I'm excited about the cruise and the following week in BCN, I am less excited about the beer selections on the ship. When we booked, we were offered several freebies and selected the UBP (Ultimate Beverage Package). We will get our money's worth despite the poor selection of beer and wine. Hard to believe they couldn't do a little better than this.

Wow, that's a mediocre list. There are a couple that are palatable, but not by much.

Never understood why beer selections in these situations suck so bad.

Probably not worth it for you, but once when I took a Disney cruise I brought my own supply. Saved $100 and had MUCH better stuff.

My brother is a homebrewer in ATL. Also a FT member. You guys should meet sometime.

Black Raven IPA from a local brewery. Great stuff.
