shipping a bottle of beer is not very expensive. i really would just like to try regional beers not available around here as i am sure others may as well. it's strange where michigan and other midwest breweries get distro to. like florida gets bell's beer but NY doesn't. and i know of some east coast southern breweries that don't make it this far up the coast like terrapin off the top of my head.

Best brewery in Mich: Jolly Pumpkin, after that probably Bells. I drink a lot of Michigan Brewing Co beer because I can get my corny filled for $35, and I can't even make an all grain batch of IPA or stout for that cheap.

Brooklyn Monster Ale is good as fuck, but I'm partial to barleywine-styled brew.
Have you guys ever had anything by Thirsty Dog? It's the only Dayton brewery still alive and kicking. Old Leg Humper (roasted porter) is a pretty decent standby.

I'm big on New Castle, but lately I have been digging blue moon.

If you like blue moon your should try Sierra Nevada Kellerweiss, same style of beer, about the same price, way better and not brewed by one of the big 3 breweries.

Big Sky Moose Drool Brown Ale. That's a damn fine beer I had never tried before. Good call on that one, liquor store guy... Every bit as perfect a brown ale as New Glarus Squirrel Nut.

I'll try to look for those beers next time I hit up the liquor store. Tomorrow is Sunday so no alcohol in Georgia.

Black IPA 8.7% nice pine and citrus hop character with a super solid malt backbone a pretty perfect marriage of the two. If you see this in bottles or on tap I suggest you give it a shot. Way good either way.

Oh yeah, and this ended up being our New Year's Eve line-up. Pretty brutally awesome.

One of the few things I miss about the 'big city' is a pick-a-six of so many microbrews to choose from you have a difficult time deciding. Looks like you like your beer more hoppy than I do. ESB is about as hoppy as I like - most Pale Ale's are too much, and I don't know if I've ever had an IPA I half liked.

Olegrinder, can you get New Glarus where you are? I love that stuff. Any flavor in season, year 'round. The Squirrel Nut Brown Ale is one of my absolute favorite beers. Couple friends are huge Spotted Cow fans. Even the gas station grocery out here in the sticks carries it. But I still miss the pick-a-sixes at Woodman's.

Not to say that I only like absurdly hoppy beer though. Barleywine is mostly based around malts and that Lagunitas Brown Shugga up there is like real strong and sweet/malty because they use brown sugar in it. I do love smoking good weed though and hoppy beer is like drinking good weed because of hops being closely related to marijuana. My sister brought home some weed a couple weeks ago that tasted exactly like fresh Hop Wallop and I was in heaven.

I'm drinking a Stone Smoked Porter out of a mason jar right now. I wash dishes at a radical restaurant here called the Owl House and get a free shift beer at the end of my shift, I close though. So one of the owners gave me an old almond butter jar she ran through the dish washer a couple times and lets me get a draft to take home. It's pretty great. And I'm not really all that into smoked beer (Ithaca Gorges Smoked Porter tastes like liquid smoke) but this one is a perfect balance of a full bodied chewy porter and smokey deliciousness. I can't wait til they put on Flying Dog Raging Bitch Belgian IPA later this week. Rochester is tolerable again.

It's sized correctly. When I changed it I made sure it was 100by100, this may be another case of refreshing the page to correct that. Other than that I don't know what your mean.

Proboards doesn't resize the avatars for you automatically 100% of the time, for instance right now the picture is taking up half the screen for me.
Resize the picture manually to fix the problem.

As I am Belgian, y'all should trust me on this one:
Go find the following beers:
DUVEL (blonde and tough like a mofo) Chimay (brown and yumyum) Tongerlo Blond Rodenbach (if you like it a little bit more sour) Gueze - this is a type of beer, also know as the champagne of beer. It's beer aged in oak casks for like... 5 to 15 years, it's pretty sour but oh so good!) Jupiler (just a pilsner, but goes down very nice)
