Seasonal Stuff
 

So what is everybody drinking? It's officially spring, and with it, everybody's spring offerings. This week I had the Southampton Uber Bock (not quite the 7% ABV for them to call it a doppelbock) and the Dogfish Head Aprihop. Both were quite good :drool:. The Aprihop reminds me of the Nugget Nectar ( you reading this, John :hee:).

The one season (or two since I don't like the Summer's either) I hate for seasonal brews! Just bought a case of the standby: Sam Lager.

no sam nobil pills?

Speaking of Seasonals.....I usually try to buy a few "extras" of the ones I like when in season. Unfortunately.......I didnt realize Narragansett Porter was seasonal and I am out .....

Anything "seasonal" from Founders is usually quite awesome. Double Trouble is up right now, but not for long, and it is fantastic. Curmudgeon is up next. I found Harpoon Leviathon is Quad just the other day and it is very worthwhile.

I like Nobil Pils, but I would prefer they make that through the summer. New England spring is a bit chilly for pils to me.

Harry(hello) im reading it....to me apihop is way overpriced just like most of DFH.... good beer but not quite worth the $$$ we pay for it.. gimme a founders,goose,to name a few or plenty of others...to me itchaca flower power( especially fresh) is much better and made in NY
I maybe in the minority but besides 60,90,120,WWS the rest of DFH just does'nt live up to the hype

edit squall is pretty dam good too

oh by the way had SH grand crue.....incredible

Most of their stuff is pretty good :uhuh:. It tastes even better when I pay less than most people :tooth:.

I really like the Noble Pils. I'm gonna stock up a bit since I'm guessing it's gonna be phased out soon. The Sam Summer (and a lot of other summer brews) are starting to show up at the bars and stores now.

Long Trail Pollenator is a dynamite spring ale. Wolavers has an interesting spring offer, wildflower wheat. It's a little bit too honey flavored to drink more than one, they use Vermont honey, but one is nice.

Shipyard makes a nice summer ale.

Their porter and also their bock were both very good. I want to try their "Fest" which is an October Fest style. Very hard to beat the Bang for the Buck that Gansetts new Seasonals offer! Only complaint I have is that I have not seen any by the case at case pricess. Just seen 6 packs at the 6 pack prices

I hope they do a Winter Ale next season.


Sam Adams makes a nice Winter Ale.
