Just bought my tickets to the LA Beerathon. Shit's gonna be intense.

Anyone going to the Bruery's reserve society tasting on St. Patty's Day? Should be fantastic!!

[gazercmh]

After last year's fiasco, and the fact they're now charging separately for it and also not specifying how many tasters, etc., are included, I'm taking this year off.

[BoardsofCoachella]

Same here; not going since we have to pay $50.00 on top of the membership fee.

I emailed them last week asking about it and the reply was 10 tickets (tabs) and each tab was good for 1 2.5 oz tasting or two tabs depending on the brand. Instead, I went ahead and bought a ticket to Stone Sour Fest.

[gazercmh]

I'm sure there will be some great stuff there, even if most longtime RS members have had most of it before, but dang, $50 is a lot for 25 oz of beer (or 12.5 oz of two-tab beer).

[crombrenner]

Yeah, last year was a mess but I'm gonna give them the benefit of the doubt and see if they improved it. $50 is a lot, but god damn I love their Oude Tart, Black Tuesday, and Chocolate Rain. I'm gonna hit the tasting til 7:00 and then head over and see Puscifer in Riverside. Should be a great St. Patty's day.

breweries are popping up all over the central Texas area. These guys are by far my favorite. I have been obsessed with them lately. Everything they do goes through a secondary fermentation in the bottle giving it a rich mouthfeel and a super thick head.

plus their labels are awesome. Wytchmaker Rye India Pale Ale

I had The Bruery's Humulus Lager and Lips of Faith Cocoa Mole. The latter was great, chocolate with hints of vanilla and spicy.

[Neighborhood Creep]

I'm drinking a Central Water's double IPA called Illumination. Pretty solid, 9.0, tastes a little more like grass clippings than I would like. 4 pack of 12 oz bottles are 9.99, worth trying.

[lehorne]

the "Beers of the Globe" exotic twelver at World Market had Mooeshead in it. Haha. No thanks.

[PulpOne]

Having Lost Coast's Downtown Brown. Anyone in San Diego?

[Andrew 619]

I really enjoyed it, the seven diffenent hops and being unfiltered, was really tasty!

Yeah, my shopmate/teacher made it for me...

Got some Nugget Nectar in a trade, great stuff!

So does anyone on this thread actually meet up and drink great beer? If anyone is going weekend 2 I will have handicapped parking. This is located right behind and in between the Gobi and Mojave tents. I will be filling up a cooler with choice brew as to avoid drinking shitty Heineken the whole weekend. If you'd like to join PM.

I hope it's not a complete clusterfuck, but I'm excited.

I posted something in the canned beer thread about wanting to set up some sort of meet up where we can get together and share our favorite local breweries in a tasting kind of format, but didn't recieve any interest. Maybe this is a better thread to discuss such things. I think it'd be awesome. Everyone could donate a few beers and do 4 oz. pours and give us all a chance to try beers we probably don't normally have access to. I'll be bringing some the best beer New Orleans has to offer. Anyone interested?

[bmack86]

I'm going second weekend, gentlemen, and I would be very interested in getting in on some good beers. I'm going to hit both of my favorite local beer stores to see what I can find, and I imagine I'll have some worthwhile stuff to contribute.

[zenidogx]

Trying a coffee porter from Six Rivers right now, "Paradise Moon." I haven't been this floored by a beer in a while. Great stuff.

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

I am a sucker for any and all coffee porters and stouts.
