    Old Rasputin Russian Imperial by North Coast Brewing!

    The beer on the left was in the clearance bin for a buck each (Weyerbacher Easton Brown & Down) so I’m picking up a six pack to go. And trying to figure out what to put in my growler in the middle...

    Seems like my beer garden spot has more IPA’s on tap today then stouts and porters which you would think would be more in season being as it is the middle of winter..

    They do have a great bottle selection though!! Even some more on the right side and behind the bar, not to mention a shit ton of taps...

    Have had a great 24 hours of craft beer. Had a good bottle share last night and went to bearded iris's 2nd anniversary today and got some killer beer. Went to several breweries in Nashville and drank a lot of good beer.

    Picture dump inbound


    Good brew from Aslin Brewery
    [​IMG]

    One of my favorite milk stouts. Great for a 5% stout.
    [​IMG]


    And of course here is some killer Treehouse. Wish I could find a good connection around Treehouse.
    [​IMG]


    Really disappointed in this Tree House. They produce some of the best beer in the nation and this was just mehh.
    [​IMG]


    Mehh.
    [​IMG]


    A Red Velvet beer from Straight to Ale. This tasted way to damn good to be 13% abv.
    [​IMG]


    Here is my haul of the day in Nashville.
    [​IMG]

    My kegerator is starting to get pretty full. Time to trade some stuff.

    Hit the Atlanta Fly Fishing Show today. Good seeing some old friends and learning about some new gear/techniques/fisheries.

    Stopped by 2 bottle shops on the way home... First was just meh, but picked up a Stone Woot Stout and Red Brick Hype Whale.

    9CD54E88-D52D-4D22-89B1-41964560EC57.jpg

    The 2nd had a great selection, but I just didn’t see anything that jumped out at me... Until I noticed a few boxes by the register - Cellar release boxes!

    I’ve been hunting for the Stone Xocoveza Charred ever since I found out it was a real thing! I love the base and was really excited to try this...

    636B4F82-B190-4A6D-9BB7-B8110C405E07.jpg

    Unfortunately, it didn’t live up to my expectations.

    Seems thinner than the base beer and I get more oak than bourbon or any of the great base flavors. I’ll stick to the regular Xocoveza!
