What's your favorite Beer?

Double barrel aged. Bourbon then Rye with vanilla.
Really good.

Sounds really good and,in light of the fact that it's an Imperial,and double barrel aged,I'd expect it to be expensive.

Omnipollo doesn't make a good IPA so I wouldn't bother…

This was why I was curious. In principle this is a style I like, but from these guys I had my doubts.

@gaseousclay:

^^
As am I. I’ve seen this at the liquor store but never get around to buying it because of the many other choices out there

My conclusion is that it was ok for the money. It was inexpensive. Nice bitterness, pine needles and grapefruit and dry at the end. Nothing to write home about though.

Happily I have a bunch of Stillwater IPA’s in store this weekend. This was the first:

Deliciously different.

Found this deliciousness by Bad Weather breweries in England, and it's DELICIOUS!

VERY reminiscent of Verdant.

Thank you Germans. Simple, clean and very tasty.

Other Half collab. Wylam'un was better.

I had these last night. They were pretty awesome. The Southern Tier Sapsquatch tasted like a super sweet double Jack and Coke. It is almost 15% ABV.

I had to get a side car of the hefeweizen to balance out the alchohol and sweetness. It kind of tasted like a not sweet banana bread. It was very dry. I loved it and got pretty drunk of just 2 glasses of beer!

This sounds like my thang. Love to try some one day.

It seems like they sell it in bottles by the case of you can try to import it. I can try to get you some and send it to you if you want.

That is good of you buddy. Sadly importing alchohol into Norway is insanely expensive. It would be even worse for something as strong as this. @Aetas shipped me some beers from Germany years ago and I paid twice as much in duty and tax as he paid for them.

The last Stillwater was a DIPA but not like one I’ve ever had. Very smooth and mellow. This is a NEIPA and while it isn’t especially radical there is an intense bitterness at the end of all the soft, fruitiness. Solid.

Damn that sucks

The last of yesterday’s Stillwaters. A triple IPA at 10%. Still a remarkably soft mouth feel and refined profile but with a bit more bite at the end.

[Sage954]

Dunley Place DDH.

[Sage954]

Crowler and yeti. Triple Crossing.

[neph93]

Finished off my Stillwater scores yesterday. No doubt they have a clearly defined style. Despite this the variations are interesting.

Of these the Loaf was probably the best.

Coming up shortly, a mental collab stout clocking in at 16%ABV…

[neph93]

And here it is… Lervig x Stillwater “Times 8”. It is HUUUUGE. Eli, if you don’t have it already then buy some ASAP. You’ll love it.
