I'm on my second and amazed how mild this is. Good stuff.

At first I thought it said "Bluebird Butter" and I cringed.

haven't seen that. Wonder if we can get it. Or better yet, find out how much a case is and I'll pick it up this weekend, possibly.

Oh shit you totally just reminded me to register for that.

I have no idea how much a case would be, I'm not even sure if they have it by the case at total wine. It would probably be expensive as hell though because the bottles are pints.

is there a total wine close to there?

right outside Wilmington, like 15 mins.

I'm not feeling any beer at the moment.
A couple of nights ago I was feeling these:

and

I have a bottle of the Dogfish Black and Blue that i should probably be drinking but it can sit for a bit.

is that the malt? I can't find those 40s anywhere.

I don't think that they're doing the 40s this year. They were a seasonal thing anyway, I think a mid-summer production.

those dicks.

I had a couple of these this weekend:

I had a bottle of it on wednesday night. I was actually disappointed for the price. The Rogue Bitters is ten times better than this beer. I thought it was a little weak for me, the mild taste reminded me too much of regular American beer.
I thought the Sunrye Ale I had from Red Hook last night was about as mild of a beer as I like while still having a fairly robust taste.

Noice.

I was at the Ponchatoula Strawberry Festival yesterday seeing the Molly Ringwalds and had several pints of Heiner Brau Strawberry Lager (no image available).

Picked up a six pack of Stone Ruination last night. Stone just came out with the six pack two weeks ago, apparently.

I almost went but I was in Baton Rouge Saturday and I tied one on pretty good, so I stayed on the couch all day.

the best part about my trip back east next week...visiting the new dogfish head alehouse in gaithersburg, md. can't wait to try some of this shit on tap.

oh NICE.

Had this over the weekend and was duly impressed:


Had two of these yesterday for lunch... never disappointed.

I had a Springboard Ale on Thursday night while at the techno bar in Lincoln. I drank it after consuming three vodka tonics, so my taste buds might not have been at full function, but it did taste mighty fine.

I've been all Magic Hat || Number 9 lately, unless I can have a Sapporo.

Magic Hat.... gayest logo / name ever. I mean, the beer's good, Vermont, why you gotta fuck it up with "magic hat" as a name?! Jesus. Makes me wanna drive up there and have a sit-down with someone.

I'm pumped even more about my summer Chicago trip because this beer is amazing and not sold in Tennessee, but is readily available in Chi-town:
