while in denver we went to this place aurora called dry dock brewery. they had amazing beer. double ipa close to 10% abv and over 100 ibu's. we bough a six pack of sierra nevada barley wine for tonight

2/11/2011 7:57:06 PM

I was wondering where i could find some Pete's wicked ale in the store...I haven't noticed it in the grocery store...but it could be there, anyone know if its a regular thing or seasonal or what?

2/11/2011 9:03:14 PM

If you are serious...


Pete's Wicked Ale was sold to the Gambrinus company about 7 years ago. They announced this past month that brewing and distribution of the Pete's Wicked Ale line would stop immediately. So if you can find some, pick it up. I honestly haven't seen it in my local stores in a long time.

Dry Dock Seven Seas DIPA, I just mentioned it on the previous page... I love that place, one of my favorites, btw, "The Brew Hut" next door to Dry Dock is where I get my homebrew supplies.

I was at the Total Wine on Capital on Saturday afternoon and noticed they had a bunch of cases an six-packs there.

2/13/2011 11:19:03 PM

yeah im probably gonna try to get up there around 345 to 4. maybe grab a bite to eat while im there. I wanna make sure I get it since it runs out so fast. Their website still dosent say anything about it though.

2/14/2011 11:39:59 AM

from the weekend



this is phenominal.



this was pretty good, but not as good as i had hoped.



the gf really likes this one, but likes it with one bottle from the fridge, then mixed with one bottle room temperature. it's a little average. not too bad though.

Another person let it slip out that it would be today... I think they are only telling people that come in-person about it, because it's nowhere to be found elsewhere.

With this much hype about it, I wouldn't have been surprised if there was a line at the door when they opened today. I'm probably going to head over about 2:30-3pm I think. Have a little Pliny the Elder and Dry Docks Seven Seas DIPA while I'm waiting.

Fun factoid, Dry Docks Seven Seas was named such after the 7 C's hops they put in (I presume Columbus, Centennial, Cascade, Chinook, Crystal, Challenger, Citra)

2/14/2011 1:06:10 PM

thats a valid point. I may be there at that time too. Yeah Im going to be drinking the seven seas too, I love that beer

2/14/2011 1:38:37 PM

So word from the bartender is not today, he said they would update the website 48 hours prior...another day for PtY

2/14/2011 6:42:57 PM

So while at FRTH, I had Dry Docks Seven Seas DIPA, Oskar Blues ODB (Old Double Bagger) Barleywine, Avery Dugana DIPA, and Alaskan Barleywine 2008... and left a bit tipsy 3 hours later....

2/15/2011 7:28:51 PM

enjoying a couple pints out of my fresh growler i picked up yesterday. Black Raven IPA is waiting patiently

2/15/2011 7:34:37 PM

My fridge is overflowing but its nothing I want to drink Time to hit up bestway tomorrow.

2/15/2011 9:26:14 PM

Picked up some Tommyknockers Maple Nut Brown tonight. It's pretty good. Nothing really stands out, but it's very drinkable.

2/16/2011 3:18:04 AM

so fucking delicious.

2/16/2011 3:32:28 AM

^Agreed, the Baltic Porter is pretty fantastic.

2/16/2011 9:18:30 AM

^^Agreed, the Baltic Porter is pretty fantastic.



so after a couple pints of olde hickory i decided to head down to the saucer and meet the lady as she finished up hosting trivia. I enjoyed a Stone Double Bastard which was quite tasty. Then I had a Dogfish Indian Brown. I have not had one of these in several years and for awhile thought the bartender poured me the wrong thing. For an indian brown it was favoring characteristics of a dry stout (head retention, mouthfeel, etc) and was less hoppy than I recalled. It was definitely the right beer after talking to the bartender for a few minutes. But for future IBAs i'll stick with Foothills or Terrapin.

2/16/2011 9:19:53 AM

What do you guys think of the Baltic Porter? I hear it's pretty fantastic

2/16/2011 9:30:48 AM

I'm drinking a Triangle Brewing white ale which is pretty tasty and extremely quaffable...nice to see them expand distro outside of Durham/CH.

2/17/2011 9:41:07 PM

the federal had sexual chocolate and the lagunitas cappucino on draft last night.

2/19/2011 3:25:57 PM

Enjoyed the Dogfish 90 last night. Fantastic as always.

I'm cutting back on the drinking a lot since the New Year, but I think a trip over to Total is due for the great weather later today. Not sure what I'm going to get yet..

2/19/2011 3:53:23 PM

Picked up some Breckenridge Vanilla Porter yesterday. It's decent, but I probably won't buy again.
