    Guess what time it is, kids?

    22oz. bottles in the area as we speak, 12oz coming next week. So much for this being a Spring seasonal. The Flying Mouflan isn't far behind.

    ISO Brooklyn Black OPS 2009

    Sorry, Mikey. One place near me had some, but by the time I read this post they were all out. I'll keep looking, though.

    How does a beer go from Pale Ale to DIPA?

    You very well may be right, but we're suckers for it, aren't we? This is one heck of a tasty beer. If you like woody IPAs and can get your hands on it, Southern Tier does an oak-aged Unearthly that I enjoy very much. My review is here: http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/3818/47151/?ba=Phillyduke

    How does a beer go from Pale Ale to DIPA?

    I think you're missing a step in there, Mikey, it actually looks more like: Pale Ale > India Pale Ale > Double/Imperial India Pale Ale IPAs were developed by the English to ensure their Pale Ales survived the trip from Britania to India during the UK's empire-building days. They did so by...

    Aging Beer

    I've aged as low as 5.5-6% ABV. Beer Advocate lists the cutoff at 7% or so, but I don't buy that. One of the more popular beers to age and do vertical tests with is Anchor Brewing's "Our Special Ale" Christmas Ale, and that usually weighs in at around 5.5% ABV, though it does vary slightly...

    Aging Beer

    There really isn't any tried-and-true, standard practice when it comes to aging beers...most has to do with personal preference. As a rule, though, agressive hopping and booziness will tend to fade over time, while sweeter malt characteristics will tend to reveal themselves. SO, with DIPAs/IPAs...

    What beer did you drink today?

    I had a Weyerbacher XIV tonight...a big, boozy "wheat wine." Not sure I could have more than one in a sitting...the other 3 of this 4-pack are going down for a little nappy-nap.

    Huge request...Westvleteren

    Jonas, if you want to hold on to your last bottle I'd be happy to send one of mine Dave's way. We've been slammed here at work so I didn't have the chance to check the boards too much or I would have replied sooner.

    Beer Trade

    Growlers are a bit tough b/c I have to drive out to Harrisburg (1.5hrs) to get them. The bottles I have access to here, though. The #20 is sold out at the brewery, but the #21 is still available there. I have a line on #20 bottles and growlers (via the Drafting Room) here, though.

    Great American Beer Festival '09

    Sadly, I've had to scrap my plans for this year's festivities. I was tapped to be an adjunct faculty member here at Villanova this fall, and the course I'm teaching meets on Thursdays. I'll be sending a care package out Jonas' way, though...keep an eye out.

    Great American Beer Festival '09

    I'm working on this...I'm teaching a class at Villanova this fall...which just happens to be on Thursday. Also need to make sure the wife will be OK for a few days taking care of the baby on her own. I'll try to nail it down this weekend. Anyone looking to share a hotel room?
