Because Denver. Great Divide 19th Anniversary Ale brewed with birch staves and birch SYZURP. 10.2%.  Whoa, momma. That’s a spicy meatball. #craftbeer

So this is “Heady Topper” from Alchemist Brewing purchased from an unnamed source and imported from Vermont. It’s supposedly the best beer in the world as rated by Rate Beer. It’s great, but as to why it recently overtook Pliny The Elder for the #1 spot, I’m not sure. Hoppy as hell and very crisp…maybe everyone just has Pliny fatigue. #craftbeer

I’ve been meaning to try the Avery Brewing “Maharaja” for a while now after great reviews IMO the hype equals the experience. Maybe the most tropical combo of hops in any Imperial IPA I’ve had to date. A little boozy at 10.4%, but the finish is clean and malt balances it out. Great color. #nofilter #averybrewing #craftbeer

New to Seattle @dogfishbeer “sixty-one minute” IPA with Syrah grape must. Very subtle in the vino factor, but just enough to be fun. Cool color and light-pink carbonation head! #craftbeer

I may begin to like sour ales after all. This one was pricey, but if your palate likes the the tang, I’d recommend it. Delicious. #craftbeer

Soaking French oak chips in Woodford Reserve in hope to create a “poor man’s” barrel-aged flavor to add to a stout currently fermenting. #craftbeer  (Taken with instagram)
