So I was able to try knee deep hoparillo and hopoholic last night. The hoparillo is a triple IPA and was really good. Nice and piney, nice happy finish. The hopoholic is a quadruple IPA. Not really that good. The overbearing sweetness kinda masked the hoppyness of the drink


Those guys are blowing up right now. They tried to get picked up by the company my brother works for. They're a coors distributor that specializes in micros. For some reason they decided not to pick them up. I told them they're nuts. They make good quality beers that are drinkable. They're growing quick.

If you get a chance... look around for Altamont beers.
Hoptologist is also good, as is their citra(or is it simtra?) epa. Isn't Hop shortage also by them as well-that may be left coast? I can't remember...

Citra and simtra are both by them. Cita is an epa and simtra is a triple IPA. I'm actually drinking a hoptologist as I write this.

Knee deep is one of my favorite breweries by far. Theyre on it.

Anyone tried any beers from bootleggers brewery? I had the knuckle sandwich dipa. Pretty damn good beer.

Just had their big wave golden ale for the first time and I thought it was pretty good, pretty weak on the alcohol percentage but not bad.

I've also only had the knuckle sandwich, liked it.

Had the Alpha centauri DIPA recently from Oregon, that was nice. Also had the Crux fermentation project something or other, also liked that.

Had a RIS with Jalapenos and Cacao nibs from belize and costa rica was freaking fantastic, also cool that it landed on my 1000th beer on untappd... I wish I hadn't lost my old beer notebook that had a ton of small micro stuff from the east coast.

I think all the Kona stuff is in the 5-7 percent range unless you're at the taproom in the brewery where they have some fun bigger beers.

Actually had a knuckle sandwich a couple weeks ago... it's in that big list I posted up. LOL!

Pretty good drinker for being as high up the percentage list as it is. I liked it. They make a few others that are pretty solid too.




Dude... 1000 beers. Why is it we're not linked up on Tapp'd?

I just started using it again. I think I'm only in the 30's.

Haha, another great tipa was Carnage from black diamond. Very nice bittering hops used awesome for an 11%.

I think I'm mrisaacds on there. Also up for trades, though the stuff you'd want from phx isn't bottled...
