bpwallace49 Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 1 pint 8 oz bottle of Dragons Milk from New Holland Brewing. A high Gravity stout aged in oak barrels. Wow. 10% ABV, excellent brew. this would be perfect with chocolate or smoked meat. Very strong, yet very drinkable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetsfan Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Fixed. She came home with a couple bottles of the Lips of Faith series. Gotta keep her around for another week or two. If you have not had them, the following are excellent from New Belgium: Dunkelweiss Clutch Sahti La Folie Belgian Style Blonde Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This, but SA's is a far from a "light" beer as you can get. Check out the calorie and carb totals. Thus a good tasting "light". If there is such a thing.

BeeR Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Budget was tight this week. Yuenlings' "black n tan" for me. Hey $9ish for a 12-pack for decent beer is hard to beat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loaf Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 The Y is not sold in OH yet but soon. Not a huge fan as they don't do any style I like but for a cheap 12, it's hard to beat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is such a thing. This. It's the one we sell at Dos P, but the main reason it doesn't suck is because it's really not actually a light beer at all.

A couple of years ago I remember reading a list of the best beers from a nutrition standpoint (i.e. calories and carbs) and the only two in the top 10 or so that I even consider beer was Sam Adams Light and Guiness. So I looked up the nutrition info for Sam Adams Light and Bud Light. SA Light Bud Light 14 more calories and 2.7 more carbs per bottle doesn't seem like a hugh jump. Especially for the difference in taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guiness makes a light? oh the hughmanity, not that I drink a lot of Guiness anyway, but just doesn't seem right in my wittle brain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puddy Posted September 27, 2011 Author Share Posted September 27, 2011 (edited) Guiness makes a light? oh the hughmanity, not that I drink a lot of Guiness anyway, but just doesn't seem right in my wittle brain. Nah....just their normal stout ranked #10 or so. Surprised me as well. Guinness So basically if you are watching your calories and want decent beer Guinness and Sam Adams Light are the two to stock your fridge with.

jetsfan Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Just got back from a week in Salt Lake. If you have not tried them, the beers from Epic Brewing Exponential Series are truly outstanding. Each is a fantastic representation of the style. Their fall beer, Fest Devious, this year is a Scotch Ale. I'd put it right up there with Old Chub. The Smoked and Oaked Belgian Strong Ale has got to be my favorite. Complex and yummy all at once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loaf Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 This year's Left Hand Brewing Company's Fade To Black is a chili porter... Described as “subtle heat, mixed with light fruit from the peppers” This years edition will clock in at 8.5% abv. If you remember, last year's was a Smoked Baltic Porter... kinda cool they change the recipe while keeping the same name...or if you didn't know and thought you were getting the Smoked, you might be in for a surprise...

loaf Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 so the Pepper Porter is not something I could sit and drink a whole 6er of... it has the sweetness upfront that the Porter brings but then wham! smacked in the buds with the heat.
