Moss Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Apparently 6 packs of Trappist beer Westvleteren XII sold out in minutes here in Boulder at $85 a six pack. It better be damn good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

NoJ Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 After what I pulled on the wife on Saturday night, I believe I'm on the wagon for a spell. Part of the blame falls on my brothers shoulders but I'm receiving all the blowback. Life just aint fair sometimes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lammycat Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Did you cheat on her again? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NoJ Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Nah, just got bombed with my brothers, one of whom I havent seen in 2 years. Frankly, I believe I'm allowed an episode like that every 5 or 10 years. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lammycat Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Every 5-10 hrs or so, even.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NoJ Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 AND.........she should've seen it coming.....but that defense didnt hold up too well. In retrospect, I shoulda just thrown myself at her feet and begged for mercy because g'damn is she ever breathing fire right now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lammycat Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 AND.........she should've seen it coming.....I'm sensing you drinking too much is pretty much her fault anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

NoJ Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 You think that'll help? I suppose a few quick cocktails couldnt hurt. Thanks for the advice Lammycat! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NoJ Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Oh yeah, for the record, I've never cheated on my wife. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PopTodd Posted December 19, 2012 Author Share Posted December 19, 2012 This was some damn good stuff. Not that I should be surprised, as it is Sam Smith's, but it went down real smooth and had just enough chocolate flavor to kick my ass, but no so much as to overwhelm the beer. Just awesome. And I am not a fan of flavored/infused beers or lambics and such. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And I am not a fan of flavored/infused beers or lambics and such.Samuel Smith's beers are just about the best across the board. Their oatmeal stout was my first love. Well, I thought my first love was this girl I dated in college, but then I had one of their oatmeal stouts, and I realized what true love was. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moss Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Wow, is this stuff good. On draft at the Cheeky Monk in Westminster, CO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PopTodd Posted April 18, 2013 Author Share Posted April 18, 2013 Just had one of these last night and it rocked my world:Only a 10-oz. bottle at 5.7% ABV. So, a bit stronger than your average beer, but not crazy strong like a Trappist. The flavor, though... my God, the FLAVOR! Very bitter, with lots of very strongly roasted—heavily roasted— malts. Just enough hops to make sure that it doesn't leave a burnt aftertaste, but a pleasant roast-y thing that lasts just long enough. A great food beer, too.Instantly, it became a new favorite.
