Ive heard great things about that IPA. Still need to try that one.
Last night I had the Yeti Oak Aged Imperial Stout from Great Divide. Not impressive, just like their non-oak aged version. Not sure what it is but they just dont sit well with me. Alcohol isn't covered up too well, carbonation is next to nothing, and smoothness could be better.

Just bought more of Lagunitas Hairy Eyeball and a sixer of Sierra NEvada's Bigfoot. Cannot wait to try the Bigfoot this weekend.
A couple buddies and I completed 17 years worth of Bigfoot during the last couple of weekends.
We had the 1990 & 1992-2008 versions. All we were missing was the 1991, but at that point it is all malt/chocolate/ and carmel and little differences as each year goes by. I would say the 1998 was an amazing all malt brew, and the 2006 was at its peak and truly defends the purpose of aging barleywines. The 2007 was in that "transition" stage if you will, and didn't hold up to the 06 or 08. It seems as if 2-3 years is the peak for the Bigfoot. Man, I could drink this stuff all day long from any year, just simply amazing.

They even have this at the Lazy Dog Cafe in Del Amo mall in Torrance ON TAP. On Tap always tastes better. They also have Arrogant Bastard on tap, but the original is disappointing after you've had the Double Oaked, which they don't have.
Overall, Stone just has an awesome brewery and beer.

Karma to whomever can finish that.
Trois Pistoles has a dark brown color topped with a rich foam mousse.
Its slightly sweet taste is enhanced by accents of roasted malt, cocoa, ripe fruit and dark spices with a smooth finish like an old port.

Trois Pistoles is absolutely fantastic, as is everything from Unibroue. Haven't had a bad or mediocre one from them yet.
Their 17th Anniversary just came out, definitely pick that one up.

Just had STone IPA on tap last night at Lazy Dog in HB and loved it.. Wished they still had Lagunitas IPA on tap as I like it even more than Stone.

Lagunitas' Hairy Eyeball is back. Time for you Nancies to man up. The Hairy Eyeball, at 8.8% alc, is a whole different animal than what your used to from your every day ale. If you like pounding brews then skip this one. If you like a nice sweet brew with crackers and cheese then leave the Eyeball alone. BUT if you like strong ale and can hack it then knuckle up and grab a sixer while it's at your local BevMo. I can't say you won't be sorry. Actually, I'm pretty sure you will be.
