[Hot Damn!]

Had a Coronado Sock Knocker. Wasn't a fan. Had decent flavor but was lacking aftertaste.

Agreed, had it on tap the other day and it was meh. Their Frog Breath is solid.

 

FYI: Slaters 50/50 is hosting a Dudes tap takeover on Thursday night at their Anaheim location. Starts at about 7 PM. I will be there to support Jeff, Gil and the rest of the Dudes. Hopefully some of you can make it out and support locals.

Had some test brews this evening from Coastline Brewing Company who will be opening this Winter in Redondo Beach. I thought their Saison stood out as did the IPA. It will be interesting to see what tweeks they make and which beers they decide to include in their lineup when they launch. 

[Chuck]

My new favorite. Imperial IPA brewed here in Seattle. 

 

Wow. Very good! 

[Hot Damn!]

What brewery?

[James]

He does that quite a bit. Damn novice beer drinkers not giving us brewery names. 

[Chuck]

What brewery?

 

Maritime Brewery. 

 

Imperial Pale Ale 7.5% alc/vol

A classic India pale ale style. Hoppy, crisp, and citrusy, with an underlying malt character. Made by blending lots of malted barley, wheat, and a judicious quantity of Cascade hops. A "big" beer!

[James]

Chuck, you should bring some IPA's down with you. Like Snoqualime Falls Wildcat IPA,  and Elysian The Immortal

Anaheim Brewery Helles

Hella good.

I also tried their Schwarz. Jet black, roasted malt, but medium body (unlike, say, Köstritzer) Decent overall

 

Spencer - dig the Hajduk Split logo!

I was wearing my jersey two days ago. Man I love Split.

Ruinten (finally)

Breury- Loakal Red

Brother Thelonious....I think North Coast

Not only all good, but those three will have you going good the rest of the night.

Good idea James. Will do!

Good idea James. Will do!

You can ask Nother for packing tips.

Blue Palms Anniversary 2 yrs ago was first time I had Dogfish Head 120 min....SO GOOD.  Sadly, I don't think I can make it this yr but, am looking forward to having Stone's beer at their anniversary  : )

[mrwicked]

Good idea James. Will do!

 

bring some Olympia too.

[Brandon]

Upon James request, I ended up from Firestone IPA to The Breury and we did Ode Darkness w/ Habaneros, Mrs. Stoutfire, and I bought Sour in the Rye and Mischief.

[Brandon]

Just added Sour and the Rye w/Kumquats

[James]

Should have had an Or Xata but glad you made it over there to have the habanero

[Aaronkv]

I've had so many rare beers that aren't disttributed here. And I still have yet to try 120 minute, it's been so elusive. I want it so bad.

Really? It kind of popped up everywhere a while back up here for a couple weeks. It will be at the Blue Palms once again for their anniversary. Take a look at their website and beer list so far. You may want to make the drive....

Tonight the Dudes bring their beer lineup to Slaters 50/50 Anaheim

 

Beer Lineup:

 

Double Trunk (DIPA 10.8%)- This is one of the easiest drinking 11 % beers I have had. 

Grandmas Pecan-English Brown Ale

Raspberry Wheat- Great beer actually and I thought I would hate it, much more complex than the average wheat beer. 

Kolschtal Eddy

[eaterfan]

It may be controversial but I wasn't a fan of the 120 minute. It was really interesting for about 3 ounces. Beyond that it got old.

[Aaronkv]

I know it's not that hard to find. It's just been so elusive for me. I really want to buy a few bottles and sit on them for awhile

[Hot Damn!]

They had 120 minute on tap at Yard House of all places a few months ago.
