Beer B.S. and Review Thread

@JMB im not much on sours but that stuff is refreshing.

We have a brewery here called Dewey Beer Co. that has a guava sour on right now that is super good. A bunch that are basically like fruit punch. Next time I go to OBX I can drop off a few.

I will be transporting @rons23 some beers he’s never had. Might be the fall though or near winter. Getting married in Oct has killed my fishing trip. She’s a good woman so it’s worth it lol

 

Awesome. I'll repay with some local stuff.
There's a lot of fish in the ocean, but not enough good women to go around. Solid choice.
Let me know when you're passing by. And we're always up for a day trip to OBX.

 

One of my favorite summer beers!

 

I can see why. Gonna stock up soon. And I've got eight six packs of Shiner peach on hand.
Pool water has to come up a few more degrees now and I'll be complete.

 

I haven’t had any luck finding the Shiner Peach up here in Richmond. I’ll have to check the OBX when I’m down there in June.

 

I found it at Harris Teeter. My wife said there were about 12 six packs left after she grabbed eight.

When in June? We'll be in Frisco for the last week of June.

 

I think the closest Harris Teeter to us is Charlottesville. Guess I could check Wegman’s. Total Wine didn’t have any.

We’ll be down in Salvo the 2nd to last week of June. Our first time going down past Nags Head, so we’re excited to try something new.

 

If you have a Kroger you might check there. They own Harris Teeter.

Enjoy Salvo. We do day trips to Oregon Inlet and longer trips to Frisco.

 

Good call man. Found some yesterday at Kroger! Tried one last night, it was really good.

 

Impulse buy today. Flying Dog Dead Rise Old Bay Gose. Not what I expected. The first taste was lemon, gose and then a hint of Old Bay. The box didn't say lemon, but the can did. Should be called lemon gose with a touch of Old Bay. I won't pour it out, but I won't buy it again. My local brewery does fruit goses way better.

 

Have you had the regular Dead Rise? If you like Old Bay, it’s awesome.

Edit: Upon further research, looks like this is Dead Rise’s new recipe. The original was a blonde ale, not a gose.

 

Dammit, late to the party I guess.

 

I saw this on here and thought it looked good. I found some yesterday and it is good. I assumed it was a CO beer, but damn if it ain't from Richmond VA.

 

Kindred Spirits makes some good beer. They are very underrated in the Richmond area craft beer scene

 

Yeah, the Veil and Hardywood get all the press down here. The only other Kindred Spirits I saw was an ipa, I'm not a fan of any of those.

 

I like both of them, but honestly think Hardywood is overrated. I’m a big fan of Strangeways if you can find their stuff down your way. And of course, Legend.

 

I forgot about Legend. I really like their brown ale, and it's easy to find here. So easy I kind of forget it's a craft brewery.
I'll keep an eye out for Strangeways.
We'll be in RVA tomorrow for our friends 36th annual Memorial Day party. Actually Henrico.

 

Strangeways has some interesting stuff, but very good. Their original location is actually in Henrico near the city if you can swing by there. Their Pumpkin Sour is one of my favorites. Enjoy your cookout!

 

Found a few interesting ones that I’ll have to tryout.

 

Bought my brothers some Blindman Cascadian Dark Ale for their birthdays and they said it was really good. I neglected to get any for myself, though.

 

Fort George out of Astoria, OR makes some really good beers.

 

Yes I have liked every one of their beers I’ve tried.
