I ordered a pair online for my dad's place. Won't be able to compare them until I visit later this month.

I figured at that price point I'd be silly not to get some of them

yeah, i felt the same way. i spend a lot on beer, so why not. i do, however, want to compare the c&b ones because i wouldn't mind having more around for when i have guests over. they are probably very, very similar.

Going to Three Floyds next week, if anybody wants anything hit me up and we can work something out...

from yesterday. Maudite. I want to try this one again. Nothing special at first, but as I drank it, I was more and more intrigued. Maybe it was too cold at the beginning.

Old Harbor Brewery's Kofresi Stout. Chocolate and toasted coffee notes. Sweet all around. Creamy body. I get it on tap at the brewery and in 22 ounce bottles at specialty gourmet shops.

Yeah, it just seems wrong to spend $20+ on a beer and then drink it out of some dinky glass, might as well have quality glassware to match what goes in it. Would be like eating some exquisite meal off of a paper plate with plastic cutlery. I'll be sure to post my thoughts about the C&B ones vs the Spiegelaus. PS. Unibroue is good ****, basically any bottle from them is teh goodness. Try Trois Pistoles, it's very good. I still need to buy a bottle of La Terribles, which is the same style ale.

I'm curious about the differences. If i get to the mall this weekend, i'm going to see if they have the glasses. picked up a couple of each of these for the weekend. gave up on the KBS. Regular Breakfast Stout will have to do. also, just realized i went stout crazy this weekend.

what from Three Floyds do you recommend. I'm thinking about placing an order with the Archer place you linked earlier.

i am going to be picking up a collab they are releasing with dogfish head next week named poppaskull and i'm also gonna snag some creeper. you can only get them at the brewery, i'll also wind up grabbing anything else that might be seasonal, plus some fresh artic panzer wolf and dreadnaught.

I finally made it to the Pisgah Brewing Company located in Black Mountain, NC last weekend. Left with 120 bottles and 5 growlers of the following brews, Pale Ale ( which was suprisingly tasty for an American Pale Ale ), Nitro Stout, Porter, Hellbender Barleywine, and Cosmos.
