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!

The difference between a pale beer and a dark beer has zero to do with anything other than how the malt used to make the beer was heated/kilned/cooked before the beer was made. Don't tell me, you think that all dark beers are heavy and high ABV? Dig the hole deeper, neophyte. |

Those are the gateway stouts to better stouts, as you acquire a taste for them.... going from Keystone Light to a Boulevard Sugarwood as an attempt to try a stout is as ridiculous as trying something over 20% for the first time ever and it's a cask strength bourbon... uh yeah, you're not going to enjoy it. ![]() |

Man that's looks really nice
I don't have a ton of stories other than beercationing through the NE a few years ago which I highly recommend. I can only imagine it being like spots in Europe where there's just great beer flowing at the most non-imposing spots like its everyday life I do feel though that NE changed the IPA game disrupting what some might pigeon hole the IPA style West Coast being much drier and bitter to fit their climate and NE doing it at a higher finishing gravity with a different water profile and yeast strain which paired with certain hops created a differing IPA with a softer mouthfeel and juicier hop expression I guess the story is that not all IPAs are created the same. They're regional similar to BBQ Tossing it back, I found a Bottle Logic Space Trace on tap out here in Globe this week That 13% abv and thiccc mouthfeel hits different when its 115F outside haha Still delicious though ![]() |

Saying it's always stout season hits a little different in Phoenix for sure, heh. I just saw Paisley Cave Complex on a feed the other day, too. ![]() |

We stayed in Waterbury as our base and I'm sad to see that some of the places we enjoyed are now closed. Unfortunately Alchemist hadn't opened their space when I was there If you're in the Waterbury area I'd recommend Blackback Pub and Prohibition Pig You can monitor Hill Farmstead as I believe they post what they're releasing a week before the actual release And as always bags fly free with Southwest so I flew an entire suitcase full of beer back to Chicago |

On my second 24oz can of Dogfish 90 Minute Imperial IPA.
9% and very tasty. Not getting that bitter taste I sometimes get from higher ABV IPA's like New Belgium Voodoo Ranger. |

I found a local source for all the good beer as I continue into the Hazy scene. I'm enjoying my exploration into Hazy IPAs more than bourbon.
This one is damn good. ![]() |
