I'm sort of a Sierra Nevada whore. I don't think they make a bad beer at all. Pale Ale, Torpedo, Celebration, Hefe Wiezen, Porter, Bigfoot Barleywine, it's all good.

You could say that, I go in phases. Most of this haul was prompted by Christmas arrivals. I actually went in looking to buy the last of the Dogfish Punkin Ale and somehow forgot to buy it

Nothing wrong with that. You like what you like.

Their Winter beer is pretty rank.

The Dogzilla was a dog. Just not very good. I could care less about it not fitting a "style" of beer since it has both stout and IPA taste, but it just wasn't enjoyable.
The Iniquity is quite a bit better, but I still probably won't be buying it again. If only 21st Amendment Brewing would can Back in Black IPA... I'd buy it regularly. So far it's the only black IPA I've thoroughly enjoyed.

Their winter beer is Celebration, not what I would call 'rank' at all. In fact, I just picked up a couple of 6 packs of it.

Picked up 2 bombers of Yeti Imperial Stout for $5.99 each. I've never had it before, but the reviews are excellent and figured I'd grab it at that sale price.

Got a huge beer haul in the mail today from a beer trade.
The Rogue ceramic bottle was only brewed once and in 2006.
The Lost Abbey Angel Share is only available once a year.

Made a major beer haul today. Tonight I'm going for one of the Surly's. These should keep me busy for a few days.
:-)
From left to right:
- Surly Bender and a Surly glass
- Trader Joe's Vintage 2009 - made by Unibroue
- Sam Adams Octoberfest
- Flensburger Weizen - largely purchased because I want a couple swing-top bottles, but it also has good reviews
- Corsendonk Christmas Ale gift package with glass
- Lagunitas Hop Stoopid
- Sam Adams glass - freebie from the shop keeper
- Founders Backwoods Bastard

That Sam Adams glass is actually a scientifically designed beer glass. I think there is a page about it on their webiste.

That flying dog looks mighty tasty. Try the Stone Porter if you're a Porter fan. Very good brew.
