Triptych brews some great beer.

>>13922988

For real, they do a really good job. I went a bought a couple Crowlers and a 4 pack of "Excuse me sir do you have a moment to discuss Citra".

>>13923031
Where are you located? Springfield, IL here.

>>13923066
Also, my favorite Triptych has been And I Think My Spaceship Knows Which Way To Go, A Wizard is Never Late, and Second Brefist.

Bourbon. Sice I work from home, I've started drinking during the last hour of my shift

>>13923066

I'm in Champaign. Nice to meet you man! Got any good breweries there in Springfield?

>>13923131
Hand of Fate is my favorite local followed by Buzz Bomb

>>13923131
Based, I go to school there but im in AZ now.

For me, its Kahlua.

>>13923146

Hand of Fate is really good. I like them too. A Wizard is Never Late is one of my favorites from TripTych. How often do you come over to Savoy? You should pick some up the next time you're in.

>>13922829
i had lagnuitas """pilsner""" and it tasted like a pale ale/ipa

>>13923426
They're extremely proud of how obnoxiously hop-forward all of their shit is.

>>13922829
A cranberry sour beer. I like it a lot but it's only like 4.5% abv.

>>13922829
Nothing now but I'll probably pour myself some Canadian Club in an hour or so because I hate myself and want to die.

>>13922829
Water.

>>13923649
Sounds about right for a CC drinker. I've been enjoying some George dickel rye lately

Make way for the king of beers

>>13922829
I been suffering from depression and anxiety over my life. Should I start drinking beer during the lockdown to suffer less?

>>13923690
>drinking beer to suffer less
that's not how this works

>>13923388
I only visit Champaign when I have to be on campus for job-related responsibilities, but one day I'll have to stop in Savoy for sure.

this shit right here is fantastic
tastes exactly like the pilsner in Czech
they make a fucking great dark lager and a c r i s p pale ale as well

Lads.

>>13923890
i cant get that in BC
how is it?

>>13923817

noice. just cracked open one of these.

>>13923699
Oh my fucking cringe. This is what happens to my feet after just a couple bites.

>>13923999
Trim your fucking toenails you goddamn ogre

>>13924010
no

>>13923426
>>13923431

it's the yeast they pitch, it's the same yeast every time and once you identify it's specific taste you never want another Lagu. worst case of onetrickpony I've seen in a brewery.

>>13924095
That's the point. Its consistently good.
>>13923431
Its not as bad as other companies
>>13923426
Watery IPA, it's water with flavor

>>13922829
just drank a glass of buttermilk for the first time. holy shit it was delicious.

>>13923699
That's exactly how it works though.

>>13923676
Mah nigger. 30 racks are 20 bucks where I live and everything else cheaper taste like shit.

>>13927428
These are surprisingly pretty tasty.

>>13927497
Haven’t opened it yet. Got a watermelon one too

>>13922829
Sparkling water, I work tonight.

>>13922829
knocked out a six pack of Sierra Nevada now I'm working on a stella

>>13923676
hell ya brother

>>13922829
This shit is delicious what the fuck

>>13927946

Looks super tasty! I just cracked open an "F" beer from Triptych.

>>13922829
Diet ginger ale

>>13928183

>>13928158

forgot to say it's a double IPA featuring Passionfruit and Dragonfruit, Mosaic and Citra hops.

>>13922829
I don't drink. Drinking is for faggots who aren't on drug court.

>>13928194
lol the incel thinks his opinion matters

>>13922829
Guaraná Antarctica & Monster Zero Ultra

>>13922829
Tangerine juice blended with raw beet and yellow carrot

>>13922829
Had this the other night. It's got a good balance of hops that makes it taste of bread malt with just a hint of sweetness. The alcohol berry flavor reminds of defrosted blueberries. Overall easy drinking porter.
>>13927946
What's it like? I've had their regular little something ale and thought it was great.

>>13923900
So how is it

>>13923426
lagunitas makes shit beer and they're probably the reason so many people hate ipas. bitter salty ass garbage fuck "west coast ipa"

4 cans of blanche

>>13928426
Oh shut up. Their beer is fine and fairly inoffensive even to casuals

The single greatest part about living in NC is Burial Beer Co.

>>13928426
>they're probably the reason so many people hate ipas.
you can blame that on California in general

>>13928471
some of their beers are fine, but the flagship west coast ipa is shit. i just hate everything west coast ipas stand for though. the ubiquity of that style made other ipa styles very uncommon on the west coast for a while, and now the west coast is playing catchup on other styles.

Most shops and taps here will only stock west coast breweries and the quality of a lot of west coast hazies is just not up to par.

Can't decide what to make. Mojito sounds decent right now so might make one of those

>>13928486
I love this stuff. I regret not stopping by the taproom and picking some up while in Asheville.

>>13928513
I'll pick up one once in awhile for nostalgia purposes, but I think the only company out there that keeps up with the rest of the country is Sierra Nevada and probably modern times, but they're much smaller

>>13928654
>Sierra Nevada
Sorry, they're ours now.

>>13922829
I usually drink these awesome sonic blue margaritas but lately they haven’t really been getting me drunk like they used to and I feel like crap now

>>13922829
Dug up an iced tea and threw a few dashes of bitters into it. Surprisingly good sips.

>>13922829
Water. The patrician choice.

>>13928688
Can't blame them. North Carolina is dope

I've never had good wine but this is much better than manachevitz or Sutter homes or any of the cheap swill I've had before. Pretty good for 4$

Got this mead from up in Maine last year. It’s pretty good, the lavender is subtle and it isn’t overly sweet. I think their blueberry is a little better though

I'm drinking genius because it makes you smarter

>>13923128
You should look for their 2011 single barrel. I put one in our display cabinet at work and I'd like some reviews sometime.
>>13928461
I've got their Resin dub and Session that's been sitting in the store for like two years. Reps won't even look in that shit's direction. Any good?
>>13924095
their Gnarlywine ain't so bad, but spot on observation no doubt. New Belgium is about to fall into their same category. It's like you can tell who drinks what nowadays.

Black Velvet from the freezer.
Haven't had it like this since a decade ago in school. It's like syrup.

>>13929460
GatoNegro is pretty good for a cheap red.

I had a couple of these to wash down some ramen. Taste was okay, but there was a ton of sediment and the new packaging on the bottles sucks.

>>13929942
I can't bring myself to buy any of oddsides stuff

>>13930123
They're able to shit out a metric ton of beers somehow. Don't know much about them; just that they're craft and I like craft, but it looks like they also do wine.
They're okay. I've had more than a few of their stuff, but the flavors are a little too rich for me and they tend to fall on the bitter and dry side; at least, for what I've had.
I'd say give one a shot that sounds good to you. They're definitely good beers, just a lot of show.
>I don't always trust breweries who put a label on their cans that are the same design as what's already printed on the can. That's probably how they get away with their prices.

>>13922829
Drank 1 day in three weeks of being off work as it was my birthday so I made sure it was the good shit. Think I prefer their unpeated whisky better though.

>>13930607
None of them sound good to me though. Interesting, but not very good and I fear what you stated, way too rich. The only sweet stout I've had recently that I liked, actually loved, was the prairie apple Brandy barrel aged bomb. I didn't realize how hard it is to get and only bought one. Holy fuck that was great. Not the same type of sweetness though

>>13922925
everybody

>>13930633
lol you're willing to buy a single bottle of Prairie but not a 4 or 6 pack of Odd Side?
look for a place that does singles. come on dude, you've got me recommending a beer i would only recommend to get off my damn shelves to make room for better beer

>>13930715
I trust prairie and they weren't trying to sell me an orangesicle flavored ipa

>>13922829
Just my basic local lager. The store didn't have anything else for some reason. I wish I had access to the American beer scene.

>>13929717
i fukin love mead, in the UK most of it is overpriced stuff (like 10+ quid) but i get pic related for about 4-5 quid and its delicious & well balanced and i buy some for my mum when i visit her cos she loves honey liquers and mead

>>13930932
pic related is what my mum loves,
its very smooth and sweet to sip on

My quarantine stash:
Makers 46
Grape 3 olives to mix w/ sprite
4204 main st. Salted lime kolsch
1220 spirits abide (canned white russians w/ sump cold brew coffee)
4 hands haze contact high
4 hands contact high grapefruit radler
More beer but too far back in the fridge to look up

Should be enough to last untill the weekend but who knows

>>13930751

Looks tasty. I bet Poland has some quality breweries. Any particular favorites anon?

>>13930751
Cheer up, at least you have Mgła.

>>13922829

Dreadful bottom shelf scotch. Tastes like peated fungus.

>>13922829
monster fiesta
