50 Beers to Try Before You Die
Thought the beer snobs here might like this article (and probably critique the hell out of it).
http://www.wisdeo.com/articles/view_post/2984 (CBS) You've heard of "100 Bottles of Beer on the Wall"? How about 50 to try before you die?!
Spoiler!

now drinking: 2010 Fantome Saison D'Ereze'e Printemps. My description of the INSANE aroma on this beer is as follows: "One expects originality and unique experiences from Fantome beers. The 2010 version of Printemps has a nose unlike any beer I've had before. TONS of lemon and lime or, to be more precise, lemonade and limeade blast the nose. I say lemonade because you can make out the smell of straight-up sugar. Dany Prignon is not afraid to use adjuncts like spices, sugars and fruit juices in his esoteric, artisinal farmhouse ales. But there is a funk character behind the lemon/lime-ade sweetness. You get the smell of dank, sweaty feet and, like, mildew. Some ballsweat and pungent flowers and Neosporin too. This is ****ED up. In a good way!"

*swoon* That would be so great. Cantillon is one of my absolute favorite breweries.

I'm drinking Olfabrikken Porter. It is the best Baltic Porter I've ever had. You must seek this beer out.

I tried a seasonal brew by Anheuser called Sun Dog, similar to Shock Top which I think is similar to Blue Moon. I really enjoy all three especially with the orange wedge in a frosted glass great summer beers, really refreshing.

If you enjoy those then you should seek out St. Bernadus Witbier, Sierra Nevada Kellerweiss and Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier.

In KC? You can find those beers at a Gomers or a Royal or a Bubbles or a Lukas or even a Hy-Vee. Pretty much anywhere, especially the Sierra Nevada offering (which will be in six-packs, the other two in single bottles).

Wonder if I can find that around here anywhere. Not a baltic, but have you had Great Lakes Edmund Fitzgerald Porter? GL just came into town recently, and I came across this gem - it's fantastic...

Really really enjoyed the Saison Rue by The Bruery tonight. I will have to go buy a few more of them. Perfect beer.
Oh and the Alaskan Smoked Porter was like drinking smoke in a bottle. Very nice and unexpected. Loved it. |

Edmund Fitzgerald is my second favorite American Porter on Earth (I like Boulevard's Bully! Porter a smidge more). Edmund Fitzgerald is a brilliant beer; it'd be a mainstay of my fridge if Great Lakes distributed to MO. Everytime I go to Chicago (once or twice a year) I bring home a case of it.
