What's your favorite Beer?

DIP(sour)A. Extremely sour and extremely bitter at 150 IBU. The sour and tart notes somehow work together with the extreme bitterness. Like an apricot, a lemon, and a grapefruit having a menage a tois in a pile of yeast. This is an interesting beer and eminently quaffable despite its size. Really love it.

@mclaincausey:

This imperial stout, aged wildly in oak in southern Illinois, and served at 55F. Reminds me of a really bright coffee infused with sour cherries and a hint of the barn. A pronounced alcoholic burn (10% ABV) makes me wish it were chillier outside. A big beer that insists I linger. An outstanding sour ale er stout. I'm anxious to try their noted framboise lambic now.

This sounds amazing. I will be scouring the city of St. Louis tomorrow for this. But for tonight:

Sainte Adairius Cask 200. Very nicely balanced sour. Delicious

Given my love of the fruit and brewer, I am reservedly anticipating this release.

Sweet, complex, strong, beautiful. Low in carbonation but not an issue due to its sirup-y texture…

Just opened this up, pretty good!
I'll say I liked the Orval a bit more though.

This is another solid outing from Trinity Brewing. TPS Report. Haha. Dudes wrecking a printer for saying "PC LOAD LETTER" A tart (pH = 5) witbier.

This is next. Wow. They aged in chardonnay casks with Riesling grapes. Champagne, funk, grape. It's more delicate than its alcohol punch.

Too sweet, too boozy (16.5%):

Jealous. My plan is to discover the world of Hefeweisse beer this summer… Franziskaner, Paulaner, Weihenstephaner, Ayinger,...

Visiting two beer stores tomorrow... Geers on Friday... It's gonna be a good week...

If available, go for the Schneider Weisse (Tap 7). And the Franziskaner Dunkles Weißbier.

Aventinus is a brewery I know, and thoroughly like…

Funny you mention it, btw... On April 5th my brother is organising a DJ Scratch Event at our flat... We will be serving... Schneider Tap 7...

He's also organising a barbeque for his birthday April 26th... We will be serving... Schneider Tap 7... And Tap 5 after dinner...

Not sure if you'll be able to come across it, but Live Oak makes a pretty nice hefe: http://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/383/1062/
It's funny, it's so widely available here that we don't really think of it as a really good beer.

[Seul]

Wow, that looks really good  :-\

Yesterday's Haul

Lost Abbey Inferno Ale (Belgian golden strong ale)
Lost Abbey Devotion Ale (Belgian blonde ale)
More AleSmith Speedway Stout (imperial coffee stout)
Two more of the Trinity Brewing beers I had last week: Double Swingline (sour/wild DIPA) and TPS Report (sour/wild ale)

Couldn't resist the Speedway and now I need to get some more for cellaring. Damn purchase limits.
