Finally tried this beer. It's a good IPA but still not my cup of tea.

Lake Superior Oatmeal Stout. Maybe it's just cause it's the first beer I've had in a few days but this stuff tastes damn good.

Last night I had Rabid Rabbit, Great Divide 18th Anniversary, Lou Pepe Kriek 2009, and Mikkeller Texas Ranger Speyside Barrel aged Chipotle Porter.

So I was photographing a wedding this past weekend with some fellow home brewers and the topic of my odd sometimes aweful beers came up. The main one was a Skittlebrau I had made years ago for a Herf in Ohio. (mainly how aweful it was) but it struck some coords and I figured I would try and find those old friends from the time. Old web pages were gone, many better brews have been made since then, many cigars burned, and I had an email from many years ago with a hint of where to find you guys.

So, Icehog, still craving skittlebrau or did we get it out of your system? :-)

very good!
i did manage to drink the regular Bourbon County too - it was awesome to have a chance to try either of these at all, and even better to try them side by side. I think in general, 12 oz instead of 34 would be enough at one sitting though :-)

Another beer I tried while in Chicago was Uinta Labyrinth. Pretty good too but the GI was better!

I picked up a bottle of "Big Black Voodoo Daddy Stoudt" at a local spot. Drank it on Sunday and really enjoyed it. I am really digging imperial stoudts right now. Delicious! :-)

No, George, you completely cured me of that craving. :-)

Good to "see" you! :-)

Met icantbejon for a few beers, they had 3 on tap: Honkers, IPA, and Matilda--I think I liked Matilda the best.
[Reply]

Matilda is awsome. I do like 312 for a wheat beer. I really like that glass!!!!
Bourbon County Stout & Matilda are my 2 favorite GI brews.
[Reply]

312 is a great warm weather beer for me. :-)

How's Fergie doing? Haven't noticed him online for a while?
