Had this with lunch and was excited for something to warm me up on a balmy afternoon, unfortunately this was served ice cold leaving much to be desired, I’m hoping it was the presentation but I just couldnt get into this beer, overwhelming alchohol taste and a harsh bite, seemed a little watery and light on the mouth feel. The carbonation was right on, not flat but not to fizzy. Overall had potential but dont feel right saying either way if it was good or not due to the presentation…sigh…</p>http://ireallylikebeer.com/post/344740711http://ireallylikebeer.com/post/344740711Wed, 20 Jan 2010 15:41:36 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kvsa4dozVo1qzxhi2o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Got to try this New Years Eve, so smooth and malty, not what i expected from a double IPA. delicious though!</p>http://ireallylikebeer.com/post/318312561http://ireallylikebeer.com/post/318312561Tue, 05 Jan 2010 12:05:04 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kvsa2ddECJ1qzxhi2o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Got to try this New Years Eve, so smooth and malty, not what i expected from a double IPA. delicious though!</p>http://ireallylikebeer.com/post/318311458http://ireallylikebeer.com/post/318311458Tue, 05 Jan 2010 12:03:54 -0500<a href="http://www.dogfish.com/brews-spirits/thee-schedule.htm">Dogfish Head releases their 2010 beer release schedule</a>: <p>Looks like all the good stuff returns with a new collaboration making an apperance in the spring!</p>http://ireallylikebeer.com/post/318299011http://ireallylikebeer.com/post/318299011Tue, 05 Jan 2010 11:51:31 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kvmwdoyQp11qzxhi2o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>a little scotch ale will make the day go smoother….</p>http://ireallylikebeer.com/post/313263019http://ireallylikebeer.com/post/313263019Sat, 02 Jan 2010 14:20:14 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kvmwdmVJhr1qzxhi2o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>a little scotch ale will make the day go smoother….</p>http://ireallylikebeer.com/post/313262978http://ireallylikebeer.com/post/313262978Sat, 02 Jan 2010 14:20:12 -0500<iframe width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Qqoxmj2I3oI?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/>http://ireallylikebeer.com/post/279785097http://ireallylikebeer.com/post/279785097Fri, 11 Dec 2009 23:07:08 -0500<a href="http://beernews.org/2009/12/brewdog-5am-saint-approved-tactical-nuclear-penguin-update/">brewdog news, Tactical Nuclear Penguin coming to tge US!?!
