Yes, I'm in Fort Worth. The Hole Lang Syne is from Rabbit Hole Brewing in Justin, about 20 minutes north of me.

Far too much beer in here for me, don't really care for it. Although Duvel isn't bad. I prefer liquor, and straight.

Several choices, I prefer dark liquor. Whisky, Cognac, Rum, and Bourbon. Those two are my current favs. At almost 120 proof, its pretty strong. The wine is for my wife. She likes beer and wine.

edit, sorry for the size. There was no option for resizing, even my 34" WS monitor is stretched to the limits with those images.

Tonight is a large cookout I'm hosting and first official batch of "Summer Beer" for the year.

6 cans of shitty light beer
1 can of frozen limeade
Fill empty can of Limeade with citrus vodka

Put it all in a pitcher and enjoy. It goes down smooth and is usually a big hit.

Went to the Grapevine Craft Brewery on Saturday for their 2nd anniversary. Only had two beers - Nightwatch Oatmeal Stout (on nitro) and two half pours of Witherspoon Barrel-Aged the Master Coffee Stout. They were pretty good

Had this tonight. I can definitely say it's one of the best imperial stouts I've had. Pretty damn good, and you sure as hell wouldn't know it's 11.1% ABV.

I do a bit of homebrewing so really its normally a choice of a pale ale, amber or most recently a dark stout.
After drinking my homebrews for a while its almost hard to go back to belgium beers

You shut your whore mouth right now good sir.

No but seriously, after I experienced a good Belgian beer, I can't go back. I was at a point where I was having at least 1-3 every night.

I didn't pick up the mole version of share this. I did have the coffee version and liked it. If I see it around I'll try to get it

You have HEB grocery stores in your area right?

Protip: If you shop there weekly or anything, stop by their clearance section EVERY time. I live in a middle class-ish area, so the majority of people that live around me buy the likes of Bud light and other shit beers. So when the HEB puts out things like Belgian bombers and other 750ml bottles, they typically don't sell. Unsurprisingly, I catch them on the clearance rack occasionally.

This week I found Sharethis Mole on the clearance rack for $8 (normally $16) and Mischief for $5 (normally $10).

Unfortunately HEB's presence in north TX is minimal. The nearest store is approximately 45 minutes south in Burleson. I do try to stop by from time to time but I've never seen beer marked down. I've got plenty of stores in the area with great selections however. Central Market (HEB owned store) had their beer week recently with 20% off beer purchases over $25. I'd love if it was 50%

Though I absolutely hate IPA's because they are so bland, boring, and bitter - this was a decent change-up from my normal Belgian's. They managed to throw in some hops and still make it taste reasonable, probably because the Belgian style helps balance things.

I got some Fever Tree tonic water from the store, and put the gin in the freezer. I'll have gin & tonic in a couple hours. First of the season :^)

Awesome! There's quite a few there I haven't tried.

Irish made Guinness extra stout, and a gin & tonic made with Hendricks gin. I'm *really* digging the Hendricks. It takes the G&T to a whole new level. I've never been a big gin fan, but I could enjoy the Hendricks straight. A little sweeter than a London dry, and richer flavor without the astringent bite of my previous pick, Bombay Sapphire.

Several of them were new to me as well

I have a Reed's Ginger Brew in the fridge. I think that I will drink that tonight.

Nice list.

Nice list.

They were all good but DB Big Bad Baptist, Tweak, The Wolf, and The Nothing were exceptional.

I sincerely hate you because I'm trying to quit drinking (as often) but these pictures just make me go nom nom
