c'mon man, can you see anything past your desktop work, hunting/fishing, brewing and raising a child?

still have no clue who that is without doing a google search

drinking your beer adam, the commercial cda
on a scale 1-10, how smokey would you think this is? im trying to gauge my feelings on smoke beer based on the smoke level. i ofc really taste the smoke, though the cda itself does taste good.

Fox grape berliner, VN1

about to start playing drink the beer

Torpedo ipas tonight

The first one almost got dumped out. 2 drank last night, was better.

Beer 4 is pretty good tonight. I am still clearly sure I'd ever buy again tho.

You don't drink beer. Just stop it.

it's clearly considered beer in germany

knock that shit off

around 5

i think it could have used more but that was my opinion right out the gate when the hops were pretty fresh. im guessing its all smoke now and your experience is different from what i remember it being

i was doing it to see if i drink my beers faster as the night progresses, and it seems to be the case

#1-#2: 27 min
#2-#3: 21 Min
#3-#4: 17 Min

is that what you are drinking?

disregard, saw your check-in on untappd. totally makes sense now why leon thought you were at my house

I really want to try some of Adam's beer. How much groveling and or money must I throw at you?

where you live? ohio?

i generally like to do beer exchanges for stuff i cant get around here

Yup.

Is there even anything around here that you can't get? If so I'll buy.

what part of ohio?
great lakes makes it to the west of PA, only recetly landed in central PA

jackie o's in athens is one of my favorite brewpubs. ive been considering a road trip out again sometime soon to see the new brewery he is working on

Columbus.

I can get just about anything Great Lakes.

well i guess im convinced i only like smoke as a background flavor, or just clearly the main flavor. its taken me the better part of 2 hours to finish this bottle, albeit a big bottle!
anyway, thanks a ton for getting to try this, i can the quality beer behind the smoke, its just clearly my thing.

sorry man. i wish you would have liked it. i guess i know for the future. smokey beer is an aquired thing. the first couple i had were clearly the type of thing id even want to have a full pint of, let alone a growler. but they have grown on me and i get thirsty for smoked beers from time to time now

ohhhh really?
have u tried anything from columbus brewing?

sometime ago a dude sent me a sixpack of columbus ipa along with a matching pint glass from the brewery. the ipa was pretty badass. would drink again

i think my glass was sniped by one of my frequent visitors...

geting back to this... scherlenka (spelled wrong) is like an 8+ out of 10. instead of only part of te grain being smoked, all of it is. as a reference, like 15% of the grain was smoked in the beer i sent you

i think i just need some heat to balance it out. and dont think i didnt like it, i love beer. even beer i dont love i actually like, ya know.

my saison was like a 2/10 on the smoked scale and it has quite a mass appeal to it for being so subtle

yeah but when you take into considerstion the cost and risk of shipping it, id rather see you getting something you really enjoy. especially when its like 10% of your box
contents

To be honest I haven't. I can't give you a logical reason, other than aside from OSU I hate all things Columbus. (Family excluded ofc). I can sample this weekend and let you know what I find to be appealing, or we can do whatever you want great lakes wise.

My personal favorites are Octoberfest, Nosteratu, Edmund Fitzgerald, and Blackout Stout.

Also if you like Thirsty Dog I highly recommend Siberian Night.

i should be sleeping...long fucking day tomorrow
work and then brewing a pumpkin saison

Go to bed then.

Holy shit it is already 11:30. I've done dick all since I got off work.

blackout is awesome, the bourbon barrel version of it is insanely good
we get both great lakes and thirsty dog (siberian night included)

im clearly trying to play tough on the makin a deal to exhange beer. its just gonna be rough without a little creativity

my beers arnt going anywhere and if they do, ill make more. we can figure something out

it would actually be better if we took some time...i already have some costly international packages this month i need to deal with

but yeah, get your ass to columbus and tell me what you think

cant stop

jp might be gay in here while i gn8

ya know?

insaid alot

beer
