As far as whiskey goes, I don't drink much of it, but I'll drink Bulleit Rye every once in awhile. Got tore up on that a couple weeks back at my company party with my boss, downing double shots on the rocks was a good time. Haha, Leopold Bros. tart cherry whiskey is the truth. Another one of...

I love when I get texts from one of my boys in Chicago, who asks if I like presents. Then sends me this photo: Found 3 4-packs at a Walgreens of all places over the weekend...IN CHICAGO. That one is headed my way. STOKED!

Elysian selling is disgusting and disappointing. And maybe the worst part of it is them claiming they're still going to brew Loser. Sub Pop better serve 'em with a C&D. I wonder what D1ck Cantwell's significant other Kim Jordan (founder of New Belgium) has to say about this.

Drie Fonteinen stuff is supposed to be amazing. Haven't been lucky enough yet to score any, but I've heard they're at or better than Cantillon-level goodness.

Dry Dock's Apricot Blonde is pretty great. And I really like Dogfish's Aprihop too.

I will definitely second that Tired Hands reco. That was the one spot my wife and I absolutely had to go to when we were in Philly the weekend after Thanksgiving. It was AMAZING. Had the SaisonHands, FandHarm (wine barrel-aged saison) and Shirling (Double IPA). All three were nothing short of...

Oh man...enjoy that Modus. One of my favorite IPAs for sure. Can never get enough of that.

That Alaskan Smoked Porter ages incredibly well, so the aged version should be killer. I think that's the year I had at GABF. And with two glasses? Heck of a deal. And I love Odell...let me know how that Gramps is.

Had the Hardywood Gingerbread Stout at GABF this year. It was really great. I had texted a friend who lives in RVA about which of theirs to try, and he said that was the one that people lost their minds about upon release. And judging by @EyeSeeSoles' follow-up, it sounds like that's the case...

Untappd: troublebound Hit me up.

They definitely were a great time. I'd definitely pay for What The Funk again...I've been here for 2 GABFs now and haven't paid for either one. There are tons of tickets given away, so we'll always try for those. As far as finding beer events, BeerAdvocate (even though the Alstrom brothers who...

They were pouring a couple of their funky or sour brews at What The Funk!? on Thursday but I didn't make it to their table. And I was running and gunning at GABF drinking mostly IPAs, sours, Berliner Weisses and more, so I was looking for pilsners to cleanse my palate every so often. They were...

I'm not entirely sure how the judging process works compared to the sampling process. I do know that were far more breweries that submitted beers for judging than were on the floor, and that's entirely due to space constraints in the convention center.

Man oh man...Thursday and Friday in Denver we're where it's at. What The Funk!? was beyond ridiculous. 30+ breweries pouring wild, funky, sour and barrel-aged beers. What a great time...had over 30 samples/pours that were all insane. The best one was Wicked Weed's Amorous sour IPA. It was...

Sweet. Thanks. Looks like they're pouring, so I'll try to stop in and give 'em a shot.

Gonna be a busy next couple of nights of drinking here in Denver... Tomorrow night is the What The Funk?!? festival. All sour and funky beer fest presented by the mighty Crooked Stave. And all are poured by the brewers themselves, not mostly by clueless volunteers. And the missus just won two...

Anyone had anything from Ale Apothecary? Crooked Stave had a couple of their bottles available at Zwanze Day, but I didn't want to/wasn't willing to drop $35 to see how they were. And in related news, if you were waiting to enter for a spot in Crooked Stave's Cellar Reserve series for next...

You bet. It's my pleasure. And holy crap...how could I forget about probably the best restaurant/beer bar in town? If you eat out at one place with an absolutely ridiculous tap selection that's good for the kiddos...Hops & Pie. https://www.facebook.com/HopsandPieCO?ref=br_tf Their FB page...

Well, since you've got the fam in tow, Crooked Stave's usual taproom is in The Source, which is an old foundry that was converted into space for places like them, a butcher, a coffee roaster, design/art shop and two restaurants--Comida, which is higher-end Mexican, and Acorn, which is kinda...

Denver: Crooked Stave (they're hosting Cantillon Zwanze Day on Saturday at their Barrel Cellar BTW--gonna be a bonkers time...the bottle share in line is OFF THE CHARTS), TRVE Brewing, Our Mutual Friend Malt & Brew, Former Future Brewing Co., Black Shirt Brewing Co., Epic, River North... For...
