Title: What's in your glass? Post by: DRKWNG on October 01, 2010, 01:46:44 PM There's a bunch of boozers here in CAM, so figured I'd start up a drinking thread.
Also, seemed like a good spot to announce that Shirlington Village is doing their Oktoberfest tomorrow, WHILE I will be out at DucPond. Those bastages!!! Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: The Mad King Pepe' on October 01, 2010, 02:02:45 PM My Goodness, My Guinness!!!
Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: DRKWNG on October 01, 2010, 02:05:26 PM Having a DuckRabbit milk stout myself. [thumbsup]
Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: tocino on October 01, 2010, 02:29:21 PM Churchkey / Birch & Barley in D.C. has 5 cask ales, 50 taps, 500 bottles. Downstairs is (pricey) restaurant, but I think the food is awesome. Upstairs is super-long bar with more reasonable bar menu (burgers, etc.). Same beers on both floors. I'm up for hitting that place any time.
Pizza Paradiso has a great beer selection also (G-Town's selection is better than Dupont, but then you got to be in G-Town, which I dislike) and is the only place to get 3floyds. Also up any time people want to hit. Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: Statler on October 01, 2010, 03:56:33 PM tonight is a dark and stormy, but the regular is tequila with a squeeze of lime on the rocks.
and when are you coming up sailing btw? season is damn near over. Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: DRKWNG on October 01, 2010, 04:30:43 PM tonight is a dark and stormy, but the regular is tequila with a squeeze of lime on the rocks. and when are you coming up sailing btw? season is damn near over. Sailing? Hell, I've been too busy drinking. Wait, that excuse doesn't work, does it? ;) Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: Meerkat on October 01, 2010, 04:39:15 PM I was under the impression that sailing = drinking. ;)
Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: Statler on October 01, 2010, 05:00:29 PM It certainly can. If the wind is up around 20 I need a pair of sober hands to hep out... but no experience required.
at 10 to 15 (typical Chesapeake) I can single hand with several beers and let the guests relax and have the hot bikini-clad crew serve drinks. (it's byob btw... I don't provide the boob). We went out in 20-30 kts last week. the rule is when the boat hits 15 knots we put the drinks down and pay attention. we don't realy do the whole booze-cruise thing unless we're anchored for the night. But we do have fun. Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: Statler on October 01, 2010, 05:02:06 PM but back to topic:
on the boat while moving it's usually a light beer. While anchored it's tequila. when it's cold on the deck with leaves falling it's a porter. or a Manhattan and a cigar. Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: DRKWNG on October 01, 2010, 05:04:38 PM I've got several bottles of French red that go quite nicely with a cigar.
Hell, I would have cracked one open already if I didn't have to get up early tomorrow. Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: Meerkat on October 01, 2010, 05:13:01 PM You riding Regina's ride tomorrow or leaving earlier?
Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: DRKWNG on October 01, 2010, 05:17:17 PM Roger is driving me out there in the morning, but I am riding the shotgun back. We're leaving my place some time around 0730, so we can get out there and get some MV time in. [evil]

(http://www.neonsign.com/eng_mirrors/images/guinnessostrichmirror.jpg) tonight is a wedding reception after going to see Cirque Du Soliel "OVO"...so who knows what's on tap... Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: tocino on October 03, 2010, 08:00:52 AM you aren't doing Granville Moore's or any of the other H St NE haunts anymore? Haven't been there is a bit, but I do like their food. They don't actually have a great "on tap" selection. Usually just 3, but they do have a lot of bottles. To be honest I'm more of a British ales kinda guy and their specialty is Belgian. Hell - I didn't even think of the (not anymore) new bier garden in NE. Anybody been there? http://biergartenhaus.com (http://biergartenhaus.com) That might be a good DC meet locale, except last I was there (Nerd Nite at RnR when the topic was beer) the streets were still under construction for the trolley lines.

Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: Slide Panda on November 12, 2010, 06:20:22 AM You boys need to step up to some man sized beers
(http://victorybeer.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/V_Twelve.png) Mmmm: "Our vintage-dated, Belgian-style specialty ale, offered in corked 25.4 oz. bottles, is a sensation in subtlety. Heady with a aromatic fruity start and taste, this amber ale features hints of pear and apricot in its well-nuanced flavor. The initial impression of fruitiness concludes in a refreshing dryness that begs you to sip again. Be fore- warned, this ale is immense as it registers 12% abv." Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: DRKWNG on November 12, 2010, 06:24:14 AM Man sized eh? I've got some Brew-Dog that is over 18% in the fridge.

It's golden and actually gives a sense of orange or lemon in there.
In the interest of accuracy I'm going to have to have one right now! Just to be sure of course. http://www.northernbrewer.com/documentation/beerkits/FarmhouseBieredeTable.pdf (http://www.northernbrewer.com/documentation/beerkits/FarmhouseBieredeTable.pdf) Sadly it was a Spring seasonal so they're not offering it as a kit anymore.

Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: FatguyRacer on September 04, 2011, 08:46:03 AM I've been drinking some good ones lately...
Heavy Seas Red Sky At Night - Supposed to be Saison style, but its more like a Belgian Strong Ale. Good stuff. Dogfish Head My Antonia - A wonderful and refeshing Pilsner style brew. I wish they would put in 4 or 6 pack form. I have only found 750 ml Bombers. New Belgian Fat Tire Amber Ale - A new import to the area. Not bad. The novelty will probably wear off soon and i'll be back to drinking Bass when i have a pale ale craving. Last night - Finished of my Sixer of Sierra Nevada Tumbler Brown Ale. It's no Dogfish Head. DFH Indian Brown Ale is still the gold standard for this style. Title: Re: What's in your glass?

How's the I IPA? Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: tocino on July 13, 2012, 07:19:03 PM It's pretty good - a little strong for me. The Oliver's Best Bitter I had on cask last night was aces. Tomorrow I'll finally try the 3floyds Amon Amarth I've had for about a year.

Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: Slide Panda on August 10, 2012, 04:45:44 AM Came back with a box of stuff from Unibroue - Including something I'd not seen down here before 'Raftman.
Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: zooom on August 10, 2012, 06:40:18 AM Came back with a box of stuff from Unibroue - their Trois Pistoles is AWESOME!!! Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: rgramjet on August 10, 2012, 09:46:43 AM Had a couple pints of Hopsecutioner at the Irish Joint in Great Falls VA. The Awesome!
Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: Slide Panda on August 10, 2012, 09:53:38 AM I am not a fan of the American trend of over hopped beers. Tossing a ton of hops in stuff is the easy way out and they all taste the same >:( At least the are now calling some of the crud 'American IPAs' vice real IPA - if you can manage to run some down (I've found it at Trader Joes) Sam Smiths India Ale is how it should be done.
And off my soap box... Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: tocino on August 12, 2012, 05:46:46 PM Can never go wrong with one of these!

And off my soap box... Thats great, but, I likes my crud Hoppy! Hopsecutioner was interestingly balanced with a mellow finish. Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: zooom on August 13, 2012, 03:44:56 AM I agree with Ian to a degree because there is a balance and most brewers have trended to not understand that and just load up with hops to the point of killing your pallette...
Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: rgramjet on August 13, 2012, 04:25:50 AM I stopped drinking beer for a while prior to the current micro/craft brew explosion. Frankly I grew bored and moved on to single malts and all they had to offer. Love the diversity!
Cant remember how long its been since Ive had a Sam Smiths......The Pale Ale was my go to event/celebration beer. Now, Ill take a Big Eye IPA or even a Hopsecutioner over one. Bass Ale, same thing........been there done that. Not disparaging them in any way, they are great beers but my pallate craves adventure. Title: Re: What's in your glass?

Title: Re: What's in your glass? Post by: tocino on September 16, 2013, 09:17:56 AM That Shiner Wild Hare is a good light beer for super hit days. The Oyster Stout - bleech. I forced down half of one.
Tried the Smuttynose IPA last night - kinda boring. On the other hand the 21st Amendment Bitter American is awesome. And it's only 4.4% so you can have a couple and still make it to work the next day. Plus there's a monkey in a space-suit on the can! |
