[James Ford]

How many different Sierra Nevada beers have you tasted? Because they do make some seriously good beers.

anything by sam smith is overrated.  most things in a phish lot are overrated.  110 degrees is overrated.  when i go to shows and sit in the shade of the lot watching it walk past me . . . i only drink belgium abbey beers such as st. bernadus or a nice version of trappistes rochefort.  if i'm feeling really sassy, i'll have a paulaner.  plus i smoke a ton of pot.

It's beer??

I discovered this over the weekend. very nice. I drank it chilled, not icey or room temp.

*I've been off beer for a number of years so forgive me if this is old news. I switched to red wine because beer was causing stomach problems for a while. Now I can enjoy it in small doses again.

in case you missed it: that was me prodding you for an assessment, appreciation, review, diss, etc of the beverages you mentioned.  anything worth tracking down?

Here is what I tell people; buy a single bottle/can first and be the judge for yourself. I like them all, so that doesn't really help you there.

Half price draft at Pizza Paradiso tonight.

Are they in Dupont?

Does anyone else find the Sam Adams IPA to be totally nasty?

I am no beer expert, but when I do drink, I pretty much only drimk IPAs. And that Latitude 48 has some funky sweetness going on.

i'm not a fan of it either. . .what was worse was the sierra nevada double ipa from the beer camp box. 

had the bells oberon (draft and bottle) and pale ale last week in michigan- both were tasty (the oberon draft was the highlight).  also had the ale asylum "hopalicious" which was also good.  oh, and drank a ton of high life......and a leine's summer shandy.

Is that Sierra Nevada's Torpedo that you disliked so much? I happen to like it. I like most of their stuff, actually.

in my opinion . . . sierra nevada bigfoot ale is worst beer i've tasted in a long time.  glissade and summerfest make me hurl in my mouth . . . which sometimes tastes better than the beer itself.

no....sierra put out a 12 pack called "beer camp" and it has 4 varieties in it, including a double ipa (the others are a juniper black, california spring and a bock).....i didn't much like any of them.   i like the sierra northern and southern hemisphere, and the ovila dubbel.....
