    So good, isn't it? 5AM Saint and Dead Pony Club are both great too. Me and my mates go to a couple of micro pubs around town, and really getting into trying different crafts.

    Thanks! I'm up in Los Feliz/Silver Lake.

    The Bruery is one of my all time favorites as well. I loved being able to drink their beers back when I was in Chicago, but now I'm stoked that I can access more of it. My boyfriend and I joined the Preservation Society, this quarter's bottle releases look amazing.

    I've been to Angel City once, which was fine, nothing I had really wow'd me. Just saw Mumford made a tribute beer for Phife Dawg of ATCQ, think I'll have to finally check them out now.

    Ahhh!!! I have been so close to joining Preservation, but always hold back due to $$. I will soon though, for real.

    Mumford is a really cool spot, and they are brand new so I am not too worried about their beers not wowing me yet. I think you'd enjoy both Mumford and Arts Dist, just don't go to Arts dist at night on a weekend. SO. BUSY.

    Music, a steady riot in my soul. Prestigious

    Working my through the Toppling Goliath beers we have available here since we just started getting them. Drank a Rover Truck earlier, which was good but I've become some jaded on stouts at this point that I doubt I'll ever bother with it again. Trying Dorothy's New World Lager next. PsuedoSue was amazing, and Golden Nugget was good too, so I'm definitely hoping we start getting some more to try.
     
  8. Just got into Charleston, SC for the weekend and had HOPART IPA by COAST Brewing with dinner. Fantastically balanced IPA imo. Really enjoyed it.

    Headed to a few breweries in this area tomorrow afternoon: Westbrook, COAST, Holy City, Edmund's Oast, and Palmetto.

    Does anyone else here enjoy Tröegs? I'm currently having a love affair with all of their line.

    Most their beer is average at best.

    La Folie is great. I really enjoy that. They have a collab with Hof Ten Dormaal that I'm going to check out in the near future.
    MI doesn't get much from Chicago, but it's also stuff that is constantly being dropped off by regulars at my store, so yeah, not sure what would be up for trade. I'll let you know if I think of something.
    You had any Magic Rocks? They're from England (I believe...) and I had two of their beers at the Bell's 30th anniversary party. I had a sour pineapple saison which was the best beer I had that day, hands down.
    Sounds good. Wanted to throw it out there.

    I'm enjoying A Tiny Beautiful Something, but it's not quite Mo. I've also decided that my favorite session is Citra Sunshine Slacker.

    The Enjoy By series is always so reliable. The 4.20.16 is one of the better ones I've had in awhile. Hits exactly what I like in an IPA.

    I've only had HopBack Amber (which I enjoyed) and one other (which I don't recall). I've been wanting to try Nugget Nectar for years though.

    I had a bomber of that last weekend, and I need to pick up a 6-pack.

    Nugget is so good. Was lucky enough to have a customer drop it off for me.

    They're just so good.

    BOO

    I don't remember what I had there, but my friends and I went to the brewery a couple years ago. It was a cool place.

    Btw, my favorite beers are Dogfish Head 60 min. IPA and Coors Light, so I'm pretty terrible.

    Had a nitro wheat ale by Sam Adams tonight. Alright wheat but would not be as good if it was not a nitro beer the creaminess makes it enjoyable.
