AustinBike Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 (edited) 15 hours ago, Chief said: The Cinq Cents is a light amber ale that's fairly carbonated. The Blue is my favorite as a Belgian beer drinker, dark, malty and a bit more sweet. The Red I'm not very familiar with I've had it once and that was enough for me not my favorite. Chimay is good but the price is a bit much, there are better Belgians and Belgian styles out there. So to answer your question, for you probably the Cinq Cents. Thanks, ended up drinking the blue last night. Not as "wheaty" as the typical Belgian so pretty good. I will try the Cinq next.

throet Posted October 23, 2022 Author Share Posted October 23, 2022 It's been a good weekend! The GD Pumpkin Ale is the best store-bought Pumpkin beer I've had - hands down. Christmas Ale from SA is one of my favorite beers - period. Will be stocking up while I can. First time trying either of these readily available bourbons. The OF 1910 is good, but I like the OF 1920 better for a few dollars more (heard the opposite from Bourbon Junkies on YT). The FR Small Batch Select is outstanding and will be a regular resident in my cabinet as long as I can keep getting it. Definitely an upgrade from the FR Single Barrel IMO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 I 100% agree OF 1920 is better than 1910. But then I almost always go for the higher proof versions. The only exception to that rule which I can recall is Balcones Rye, where I like the standard release better than the Cask Strength version. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AntonioGG Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Real Ale Boom Box double IPA in the cup (highly recommend) and Old 300 pork loin and brisket on the tray (also recommend) at Real Ale in Blanco.

In the same double IPA vein, this one is very good. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATXZJ Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 (edited) A few old goats brewery in Roanoke is CRUSHING it with their bottle aged beers. This one's a total standout. Almost as good as the cheap as dirt Canadian beers I got spoiled on over the summer 😁 Edited November 6, 2022 by ATXZJ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

throet Posted December 1, 2022 Author Share Posted December 1, 2022 I was so sad to learn that Evan Williams Single Barrel would no longer be available in TX. But then I finally got around to trying Evan Williams BIB. Seems they are very similar in taste, and the EW BIB is half the price, higher proof, and still readily available. Between WT 101 and EW BIB, keeping the cabinet stocked with affordable daily sippers is a "no brainer". 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
