Let's talk good beer

Sipping on a Pumking. It seems they are released earlier every year.

Not a big fan of Fat Tire, but picked up a 6er of New Belgium Rolle Bolle Ale (http://www.newbelgium.com/beer/detail.aspx?id=c110c131-1db6-4eac-bfc0-4182b7cd918a) over the weekend. A decent summer beer. Good floral notes. Went down easy.

I'll definitely keep an eye out for it this fall.

I found my new pumpkin beer addiction for the fall:

It would be nice if they could wait until it's actually fall before releasing fall beers.

Reminds me of being a kid and you'd start to see back to school commercials in July.

yeah I had a hazy night several weeks back after having some friends over and going to a concert. I woke up in the morning and found in my fridge Sam Adams Oktoberfest. I was like its August 4th wtf?

Amen .

Had 3 Fall beers over the last 2 weekends:

New Belgium Brewing - Pumpkick (http://www.newbelgium.com/beer/detail.aspx?id=4a0076ef-aa43-44bb-a1ff-1a20d33245b6:): Not having been a big fan of Fat Tire, everything else I try from New Belgium I've enjoyed. This pumpkin beer is not your sweet, dessert tasting beer, but a spicier version. Quite tasty. Will probably get more of this before the stores run out.

Victory Brewing - Festbier (http://www.victorybeer.com/beers/festbier/): Very good marzen. If you can't find the German Marzens, this is a very good substitute.

Schlafly Pumpkin Ale (http://schlafly.com/beers/styles/pumpkin-ale/): Like drinking a bottle of pumpkin pie. This stuff is awesome. Highly recommended if you like the sweet dessert type of pumpkin beers. And at 8% ABV, several will knock you on your hindparts.

Victory Brewing always puts out quality stuff. Love their Hop Devil.

I still can't bring myself to pick up any pumpkin beers yet.
