Beer From Travelers

By scot in Beer, Lounge on Monday, October 12th, 2009

In the past few days I have have been fortunate enough to receive two big grouping of beer: one from cousin, Russ, in California and from a co-worker, Jay, who took a trip out to the Baltimore, Maryland area.

I received beer from Russ on Friday (my birthday) and he sent me a huge haul totalling 13 beers:

• Mortality Stout by Reaper Ale
• Deathly Pale Ale by Reaper Ale
• Sleighor Double Pale Ale by Reaper Ale
• Anvil by AleSmith
• Grand Cru by AleSmith
• Decadence by AleSmith
• Wee Heavy by AleSmith
• Vertical Epic by Stone
• Sea Monster Stout by Ballast Point
• Calico Amber Ale by Ballast Point
• Red Tide Amber Ale by Hollywood Beach
• Damnation by Russian River
• DBA by Firestone

All of these beers I have never had, so 13 bombers of fun await.

Jay brought me back seven bombers from Maryland that I gave to him off of a huge list of potential beers that I can’t get in Illinois:

• Rastafa Rye Ale by Blue Point
• Java Head by Tröegs
• The Mad Elf Ale by Tröegs
• Heavy Seas – The Great Pumpkin by Clipper City
• Heavy Seas – Prosit! by Clipper City
• Heavy Seas – the Big DIPA by Clipper City
• Insanity by Weyerbacher

I can’t complain about 20 bombers over a weekend. Now I have to find time to drink them. Yeah, like that will be a problem. Enjoy!
