Reaper is a DIPA, Apollo is a Russian Imperial Stout and Md Roast is an Imperial Cream Ale

Aslin Brewing Company / Dominion Wine and Beer  All Eyez On Me - Double IPA

A few weeks ago we got together with our friends over at Aslin Beer Company in Herndon, VA. Local guys making beer that is receiving national recognition? Why wouldn't we want to brew a beer with them? So that's what we did. Aslin has become popular for making juicy, delicious IPAs that we love drinking. After putting our heads together we decided on brewing a Double IPA that we used a combination of Waimea, Vic Secret and Amarillo hops in. The result was fantastic and now we want to share it with you! We received a very limited amount of this beer and want to distribute equally to as many of you as possible. Below are a few details on how we plan to release this beer.

 Date: Friday, November 9, 2016
 Time: 5PM
 Limits: (1) 32 oz Crowler Per Person
 100 Crowlers Guaranteed
 Price: $12.99 / 32 oz Crowler

I went to play poker with some heavy hitters, last night.  It was like playing with those mother,fuckers on television.  wow. 

so, I brought some dfh 120 minute, founders backwoods bastard and the wicked weed permeo . . . to share with my new friends.  they were impressed and delighted.  I did taste the permeo, just so I could say I did.  very, nice.

still, miss beer, but i'll live.

That list looks like somebody went to a few Whole Foods across the country and starting making a random list of beers in the cooler.

Anyone seeking out BCBS this week?  I'll be in Loudoun County for the holiday.  If anyone has recs for a spot to pick some up, preferably without a single bottle limit, I'd love to know.

I *might* go stand in line 15 minutes before opening time at my nearby Total Wine to try to get a bottle of Coffee. I fully expect I will fail, based on the lines I encountered last year. The Regular and Barleywine shouldn't require any line waiting, I might pick up a bottle each of those, though I still have some from year's past.

Goose Island is said to allocate BCBS based on what stores sell the most of their regular products. So wherever Hutch buys the most Goose IPA is the place who will get the most BCBS. So good to check grocery stores in addition to the usual more beer-centered stores. (Though doubt grocery stores would have anything more than Regular.)

So, what's everyone drinking today?

Keeping me company on this turkey day is a case of week-old Head Hunter (I'm currently less than 10 miles away from Ohio), and a mix pack of Bell's driven frim from MI.

A bottle of Bluejacket Wallflower and maybe some Westbrook Gose with homemade Pad Thai and spring rolls. And later a 2013 BCBS Coffee with homemade pecan pie and (store bought) vanilla ice cream.

Oh and some Founders Breakfast Stout with brie to get things started.

Happy Thanksgiving to y'all.
