I Like Beer!

[Fat Freddy]

OK, here's why I LOVE this time of year at work: The sales reps shower me with cool stuff in an attempt to make up for all the crap they put me thru the rest of the year.

 

One of'em just strolled in here with one of those 5-liter "mini kegs" of Heineken for me! SWEET! Wish I could tap into it right now but I think the higher ups would frown upon such behavior.

Do you need help with that? I can be there in about 15 hours.

In 15 hours I'm pretty sure I could drain this baby by myself.

 

Seriously, at first I thought "how the heck am I gonna drink all this before it goes stale?" but the back of the keg sez that once it's been opened, the beer inside will stay fresh for 30 days. That gives me plenty of time, although I'm sure it won't take me NEARLY that long to drink it all. Phew!

MORE Christmas gift beer from a co-worker !

 

I came back from lunch to find a 6 pack of something called "Winter's Bourbon Cask Ale" on my desk... sez it's aged over "bourbon barrel oak and vanilla beans"... sounds tasty! Can't wait to try it!

My wife's christmas party tomorrow! Sadly for her I don't think she'll be able to drink much, so I'll have to drink for the both of us! Damn me thirsty.

[Fat Freddy]

Yet ANOTHER Christmas gift six pack!! That's the second one this week! Damn, I wish this nagging head cold I've had since Sunday would go the f**k away so I could start to enjoy some of this stuff!!

 

Anyway, today's offering is Sierra Nevada Bigfoot Ale... never tried it but I do love me some Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, so anything from the Sierra Nevada family is jake with me.

I'm on my third bottle of this stuff tonight and I'm thinking about going for #4. Pretty good stuff, which is surprising since it turns out that this is actually an Anheuser-Busch product (makers of -- gack! -- BUDWEISER!) disguised as a "craft" beer.

 

The label has a cool, Christmasy snowman motif too:

I'm having a Sam Adams Winter Lager.

Do they actually make that with a Bishop's finger?

[RichieZ]

I grabbed a bottle of Samuel Smith Oatmeat Stout along with some bottles of Young's, Heinies and a six-pack of Fat Tire Amber, all in the fridge awaiting consumption this weekend.

[Jez]

The Bishops Finger was so delicious, I ran out, so went to get another supply. Oh for nights in front of the TV.

mmmmmm Fat Tire. It's been way to long since I've enjoyed a Fat Tire Amber Ale.

Had one of those Sierra Nevada Bigfoot Ales this evening. WHOA was that thing heavy! Tasted fine, a little more bitter than I like it, but I didn't feel the need to go back for another one. Very filling. Not something you drink when you want to go all Frank the Tank and tie one on.
