I tend to send many threads off topic when I start talking about beer or booze in general. This is a place to talk about, critique and suggest new beers to our fellow minglers
If you like bud or coors light, that's cool but this is a thread for us those who go out of our way to try new beers (that actually have flavor) |

First beer up: Russian River's Damnation!
Absolutely love this belgian style pale ale and @ 7.75% it's no joke The Russian River Brewery is in Nor Cal so I'm probably more likely to see it here in So Cal than people from other states, but if you can get your hands on it I suggest you give it a try. |

SWEET. i gotta check that out. have you ever tried any of the samuel smith's line? I have! I am quite fond of the Nut Brown Ale and my pub that I go to makes a Beer Float with their Organic Strawberry Ale. Fruity beer isn't my thing but I have tried it and it is quite delicious (and a good choice if you're with someone who doesn't like beer) |
