 Re: NOW DRINKING - BEER SNOBBERY VOL. 4
You beer snobs and your snob beer. All I have on tap is Beck's. Which is a fine brew, but it's not classy enough to post a picture of here. Bastards.

 Re: NOW DRINKING - BEER SNOBBERY VOL. 4
I'm not drinking this beer now, but it was a Christmas gift from my cousin. I hear they only sell it during Christmas. Delicious. I love strong stouts.

I keep seeing it around but it only comes in a 6 pack and I don't feel like throwing the coin down for a 6er until I've tasted one or it's recommended to me. I've had this before. I'm not even a pineaaple fan, but i kind of went into this hoping for that strange taste. It's just your typical IPA. I didn't pick up on any pineapple flavors. It's just your typical groovy, citrusy grapefruity, zesty flavors you typically get in an IPA. I would probably relate it mostly to . . . Amsterdam's Boneshaker I can't remember whether it was more of a west coast or an east coast ipa, but it certainly didn't taste like the Red Racer IPA from BC.

Apparently they have a new beer too. . . it's a few pages back. Hasn't come to Toronto yet. I think it has Sapphire Hops in it or something like that. Sounds silly to me cause I don't think I've ever heard of Sapphire Hops.... maybe it was something else. Black bottle. Becks is a beer you drink out of the bottle or a can though. Don't pour that shit into a glass.

 Re: NOW DRINKING - BEER SNOBBERY VOL. 4
Just got these three (kinda broke for the next few weeks):    The Erdinger I almost wouldn't have noticed as the label is almost identical to the other one they had there. It's new so I figured I'd grab it, The Samichlaus I've been reading amazing things about, so I figured I'd give it a go (although the 14% scares me a bit  ).

As i was talking about a page or two back, the Samichlaus is maybe the sweetest tasting beer i've ever had. So sweet, almost cloying, but it was interesting. I consider it a barley wine personally, not a dopplebock. Gonna get one or two more to age.

I wasn't nuts about it, but it's maybe because of the surprise. I'd say it was a good cross between a barley wine and a doppel-bock.

Only thing that changed my mind was I was going to take it to my friends recording studio, but he didn't have any glasses to pour it into Speaking of that... the reason I was there was because my friend was working on an insane studio engineering project for his school. People were responsible for creating a scene from a movie. So he had this huge war scene going on and I got to do the voices of about 3 or 4 different people. Our project was an attempt to create a scene from the movie Gladiator. So I got to do the whole Russell Crowe voice and everything. Then shortly after the war scene I begin reading aloud a letter that I would be sending to my wife. . . In the ending. I honestly can't believe how fucking epic this audio track sounds. I'll throw a link on here within the next 48 hours as soon as I get it. I would seriously use it for my profile to try out for voice acting in movies. I'd love to do voice acting for animated movies. I got some crazy versatility going on. What's stopping me? How the HELL do you get hired as a voice actor? lol

I'm friends with a bunch of actors but none of them have done voice acting from what I know. It must be a harder field to get into because your voice can be recognized without having your face there.

 Re: NOW DRINKING - BEER SNOBBERY VOL. 4
 Oh dear lord this stuff is delicious! I picked one up in a St. Ambroise variety pack. I had to immediately go out and get a 6 pack. Not an overbearing apricot flavour, but just enough for a bit of an aftertaste.

 Re: NOW DRINKING - BEER SNOBBERY VOL. 4
A recreation brew from Boston Beer Company.  Pretty typical Sam Adams beer to me. They all taste pretty similar to me, probably due to the House yeast strain.

A hopped up Imperial Stout.  Great tasting beer with somewhat of a weird aftertaste.
