    Founders Azacca IPA, and Atwater Brewery Bockefeller Lager. The Azacca is an IPA made from the Azacca hop, and the Bockefeller is a high-gravity lager. Both tasty.

      Stone Coffee Milk Stout. Very tasty -- there's a nice aftertaste that washes out the bitterness that coffee stouts can run to -- in a blind test I'd probably have called this a dark chocolate stout instead.

        You might like their Mocha IPA and would definitely like the Xocoveza. Those two beers are about the only Stones I've ever cared for, and I've actually bought those more than once, which is saying something.
        Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

          I just made some hot chocolate with little white marshmallows using my little coffee maker. What kind of alcohol should I put in it?

                  Traded an Abyss Brandy for the Hammerheart. Trading a BA Silhouette for an Abyss Scotch. Also picking up my 2012-2016 + 2015 BA Darkness set today. I have been busy this past weekend.

                      That is a decent beer. I was a bit surprised by it.

                        I had no expectations for this beer. I was pleasantly surprised!

                          Picked up Founders Imperial Stout from Meijer tonight.

                          Definitely not a "session" ale.

                            As a whiskey and then beer fan, I'm finding myself enjoying a glass of Cabernet over even a beer like KBS or some other fairly rare beer. I've found myself reaching for the wine list before I read the beer or whiskey menu.

                            What's surprising is that this has been a fairly rapid progression since the first glass of wine I really enjoyed was in late October.

                            The complexity in wine surpasses that of beer in the vast majority of cases without having to worry too much about handling, going sour, or carbonation after opening and having a glass on one night and another in a few days.

                              I just can't do wine. I've tried a few, and it is not my thing. Lambic beers are as close as I can get.

                                I can drink wine, and will have a glass with a meal occasionally, but it just never grew on me. Give me a well done fresh IPA, or a good complex stout or barleywine every time over a glass of wine. Or even better, a good complex sour, not some one note kettle sour either.
