Also Devils Peak had a stout on tap last week. Was a nice change from the usual.

Who's at South yeasters?

I am a member. Been doing the summer fest for a few years. Don't get to the meeting too often though.

hmm - stout.. I should think about brewing one with winter on the way. Or perhaps a Black Rye IPA again

Didn't you get the memo?
We're boycotting those beers.

Beer tho...

 

[Rouxenator]

I did get the memo, but it was the only beer they had. Did not say intel inside so it can't be that bad

Saggy Stone
Dark Horse Lager

Nice easy drinking lager. 3/5

Saggy Stone is awesome. Their ale is good to.

Those names would suggest grossness.

 

[Rouxenator]

Not that good

How do you get from Porter to grossness .
You buy probably the least favorite Aegir beer and turn your nose up their best stuff.

SB likes Pilsner and Lager.

Have to agree with this. The steaming isn't high on my list of favorite beers.

 

[Rouxenator]

We bought a variety 4 pack of those Breederivier Brewing Co beers and none of them were very good. Black Label is better.

This seems to be my week of bad beer, sadly I have 2 more of these to finish.

 

[morkhans]

Beer tasting at misty mountains just outside hermanus.

Weiss: very light. Hardly weissy
Pilsner: tastes sour. Suspect infection?
IPA: meh. Did you forget the hops?
Berry cider: quite refreshing
Apple cider: not bad

TLDR: don't bother.

Porter would suggest a dark beer. I hate dark beers. ergo gross

I don't know how you came to this conclusion.
