holy shit am I ever!!
I'm a little disapointed that they started off with a blonde style beer (I'm a HUGE fan of heavy, dark ales, stouts, ect), though I read that they're planning a themed beer for each new season that's being released.

Hard to pick but probably pretty much a draw between Bell's Black Note and Trappistes Rocherfort 10

I'm sad that I've never had the pleasure of having a Trappistes beer or ale...
I've tried a couple of REALLY good craft beers, but yet to have anything that good.

Oh wait, scratch that I have had La Trappe triple before (I completely forgot about that) and I remember it being very tasty.

Well that's pretty tough. I'll just rattle off some off the top of my head that have stuck out to me: Allagash White, Brother Thelonious, Old Rasp, Monks Blood, Shoals Pale Ale, Raging Bitch
Bonus round
>Either of the above in your favorite drinking receptacle
I pretty much always use the common sam adams "perfect pint" unless it's something that needs a special glass.


Side Note: Anyone try 21st Amendment's Sneak Attack? Any good?

Pic; clean and round, only slightly bitter. Malty taste, with a little fruit maybe. Not particularly impressive.

I've had their funnel blower. The nose was amazing. Sweet, very biscuit like, had vanilla notes on it and the taste was a lot more subtle. I thought it was pretty good!

Not drinking any at the moment but I picked up two stouts and a porter to try over the weekend.

Walker reserve porter, Barney Flats Oatmeal stout and youngs double. All three were great.

My favorite beer as an old stand by when out or just to go pick a pack up at the supermarket is Guinness.

I only seem to like the darker beers

You were doing so well until you mentioned Guinness.

Try Deschutes Black Butte Porter.

Currently: tried a couple amber lagers, Third Shift was alright.

Favorite: oh Lordy there's no way of knowing. Besides being a beer nerd and a professional beer reviewer, there are few things that can really stick out as "favorite". Maybe... Rince de Cochon?

Bonus: here's something I got shipped to review for some Austin thing

I'm usually a lager person but I recently moved and there's a really awesome brewery near my house that has an incredible dark ale I LOVE. I could drink their Full Boar Scotch Ale all day, every day.

Haven't tried that one so I can't say. And yes, Megadestroyer is absolutely awesome. Pretty much all their beers that I've tried have been pretty great actually- the last one I had was their winter ale which was just about the perfect Christmastime beer.
