We drank several cases of Maine this weekend on a ski trip with friends. Mainly their Lunch and Old Man Tom, which I also liked.

Never had the dinner, yet. That's my goal for 2017.

Not that hard to get - I see it at the Whole Foods beer store in Manhattan with a decent amount of frequency.

Picked up Sierra Nevada's 2017 version of their Beer Camp beer - golden IPA...not really a big fan. It's okay but nowhere close to the quality of its better stuff.

Maine Lunch or their other beers, like Zoe or Peeper? Maybe we live too far south and don't get as much here.

Also had a pineapple pale ale from Funky Buddha. Enjoyed it way more than Ballast Point's pineapple sculpin. The difference was it was a bit sweeter and more pineapply. Headed to Ft Lauderdale in April to the Funky Buddha brewery and taproom. I'm very excited about that.

Interesting. Try to follow on those footsteps on my next FL trip. :)

Got a sixer of Dieselpunk Double IPA today and it's really awful. It's highly sweet which doesn't make any sense. Not sure I'll finish them.

I feel such guilt throwing out bad beer. I have 6 cans of Budweiser my brother-in-law left behind and 2 bottles of Angry Orchard (cider) with cinnamon from a variety 12 pack. I don't see myself drinking any of it and anyone I've offered it to has turned it down. Maybe if I asked the high school kids in the neighborhood? Oh, I know, bad idea. But I feel guilty putting it in the trash despite the fact that that's where it belongs.

Had two growlers of xocovesa last night with several friends. Really superb beer and I was so lucky to have it on draft.

It's not summer yet but I was in Apalachicola. Went to the Owl Cafe for lunch. Since it's across the street from Oyster City Brewing, they feature the local brews on tap. First Light of Day was a summer ale and I enjoyed every drop with my meal.

Faced with a similar problem a while back, I used the cider as a marinade base before slow roasting a fresh pork ham. As for the Bud, noxious, but a can or 2 suitable for a "Carbonade" of beef done in a slow cooker

Unlike my last purchase this is a good on: Blue Point Brewing Hoptical Illusion.

If you give it to the high school kids they will think Budweiser & Angry Orchard are actually drinkable.. :)

Someone above suggested cooking - probably the best use, otherwise give the alligators in the sewers something to cheer about!
