some damn good IPA's out there

[FussyDutchman]

Now that FW is in VT Union Jack has become a regular in my rotation but Luponic was a very pleasant surprise. Perfect for hot days on the lake and much better than all day ipa and other comparable "lighter" beers imo. I would say I like it better than super session also but that one will definitely not get completely cut out.

Buttah - Foam is a worthy new contender in the local beer scene. Only one visit shortly after they opened but everything I tried was on point. Planning to head there tomorrow afternoon before the UM show.

Peruvian - Bring samples next time you are up for a visit [emoji6]!

Great north aleworks is as good as NH gets, finestkind has gotten better but still always leaves a lingering bitterness. Sounds gay but it goes down better with a dash of cider mixed in.

Gotta add fresh Stoneface IPA to one of the best IPA's from NH. Still not a juice bomb but it is pretty good.

There's a new one: Full Clip ipa

[strawjack]

Yeah, Full Clip is pretty good. Smoother for those not liking the bitter IPA. My favorite from them is Hopulization. They don't release it that often and it's always better flowing from a keg. I'm psyched for them to open their restaurant.

I like those guys at Stoneface, but they are growing at such a pace that it's very difficult for them to be consistent. I guess that can be said for almost all the small breweries. And that is what is so impressive about the giants like Bud and Coors...how consistently shitty their beer tastes in such large batches.

Kelsen is making some good beers also. Their IPA is nice...again on draft. And their brown ale is very nice.

Luponic Distortion is damn goods. Wish I lived in a state where I could actually get it. Very crushable.

I think FW makes the best readily available craft beers. I would put them over Lagunitas, Stone, Goose, SN, NB, etc. as long as they're fresh they're always very good.

Good point, forgot about them.

Had my first trillium the other day, that was good.

Hmmm. TRILLIUM.

I worked on congress st. about a five minute walk away. The tasting room before the train home was always a good decision.

Row34 across the street from Trillium... Crazy tap list usually and phenomenal food. Might be a little pricey, can't remember

[wasatchback]

Yup just checked their tap list, it's killer.

Trillum, Other Half, Grimm, Finback, Omnipollo, Mikkeller, Singlecut... The list goes on

That is a SOLID tap list

They just put a Row 34 in Portsmouth and yeah the beer list is solid, but that's just another addition to Portsmouth that's making the town more and more sucky.

[strawjack]

California beer night - started with a Stone Mocha IPA on draft. What a funky, way too drinkable, 9% beer. Seemed like it should have been a stout or porter.

Then moved to 12th Of Never via recommendation of the bar owner. This is super good! Can from Lagunitas? Nice, but this should be a 16oz! I will be looking for this at the local beer store.

[Bobby Stainless]

Not the right thread, but Lagunitas Aunt Sally Sour is really good too.

[PlayItLeo]

NEBCO Coriolis. Fucking amazing.

Amping for my New England beer extravaganza starting Wednesday. Treehouse on Wednesday then decide to pull the trigger on driving all the way to Hill Farmstead Thursday AM to hit opening round noon, then Stowe for Alchemist. Might try to hit Fiddlehead on the way home but might just keep going down 100 instead to see if I can find some SOS. Staying for 5 days about 200 yards from Foley Brothers. Gonna see if I can get those guys to give me a few tips on the hoppy beers I've been brewing. Then it looks like I'm going to be able to hit Trillium and jam as many cans into my luggage before I fly back out of Boston the next Thursday.

Fired up!!
