    Had a few different beers over the last weekend.

    Galway bay Buried At Sea. Do not rate this at all and did not enjoy it. I am a huge fan of milk Stout and chocolate Stouts but this didnt taste nice at all and just tasted like a every day Stout and i could not pick up on the Milk chocolate flavours it was post to have.

    Brown Paper Bag Project / Kompaan Black Coffee IPA. This wasn't to bad to drink was like drinking a cup of coffee cold.

    White Gypsy Blonde had maybe 4 pints of this yesterday and i it was quite a nice beer and would drink it again as it went down quite easy. Was the only craft beer in my local pub :O.

    Did not expect to see these in the local Molloys when I walked in this evening

    Molloys have gotten really good over the last few years with their selection.

    Celebrating tonight so Beavertown's Skull King, Siren's Bones of a sailor part 3 have a KBS for later too! :)

    Bones of a sailor is a cracking beer Raspberry and chocolate bitterness with Vanilla sweetness. Beautiful.

    Had Jack Cody's Hail St Patrick Extra Stout - thought it was superb, similar to wrasslers but with a bit of sweetness to it.

    Also had the Brown Paper Bag Black Coffee IPA, think this was their best beer for me, so far, really enjoyed it.

    Schneider Weisse Unser Aventinus - I was bowled over by how a beer could be so flavoursome.

    I don't have the vocabulary, or indeed the sophisticated palate, but complex is one word for it. In a good way.

    That Lagunitas beer was dangerously drinkable for 8.5%


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,347 ✭✭✭✭Grayditch


    I use three different Molloys occasionally, and they're all pretty great. Clonsilla in particular.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,795 ✭✭✭PowerToWait


    Molloy's and O'Briens pretty good.

    But if you're anywhere near Fairview / Marino, get thee to Martins. It's like a library. For beer.

    Had James Brown Brews Chocolate Orange Stout last night was quite disappointed as couldn't pick up any chocolate or orange taste in it

    Black's High Viz. Good to see it in bottles now. I love the stuff, it really reminds me of Trouble's Whistle Blower.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,545 ✭✭✭murphyebass


    I just had a bottle of 8 degrees Millenium double IPA and my God is it good.

    Sooooo ****ing tasty. Rivals if not betters of foam and fury which is a serious feat imo.

    Go buy is all I can say.

    I'll be stocking up before it goes off the market. Seemingly a special edition.

    Hopefully it gets kept like Amber Ella.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,347 ✭✭✭✭Grayditch


    Millennium is up next :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 840 ✭✭✭jsa112

    Molloy's in Clondalkin have it for €4.10.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,347 ✭✭✭✭Grayditch


    It was great stuff, alright. Really hides the 10%. Smooth enough.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,516 ✭✭✭matrim


    Finished the last part of my Masters today and celebrating with a Two Hundred Fathoms.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,913 ✭✭✭✭ben.schlomo


    Had an 8Degrees Ochtoberfest Bock lastnight, was hoping for so much more from it, minimal sweetness or aroma, quite pungent taste, just not great really. Followed by a Wild Bat, toasty, malty, sweet, much more to my liking.

    A bottle of White Hag Fleadh Red IPA. Disappointing. Had a sort of harshness to the flavour that was not to my liking.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 75 ✭✭Rumun


    Bottle od Millenium imperial ipa and i have to say i am verry impresed, maybe coz is fresh but still what a great brew. Top league in ireland


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,111 ✭✭✭✭RasTa

    Where'd you get the Kinnegar sour? Looks very interesting.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,111 ✭✭✭✭RasTa


    Drinkstore, they said it won't last too long. Only 30 cases for Ireland


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,795 ✭✭✭PowerToWait


    Dammit. I'm sure it's class. Gotta get me some.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,267 ✭✭✭Joekers


    Also got one of them Kinnegar sours and the Firestone Walker Wookey Jack and a Victory Storm King imperial stout :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,669 ✭✭✭quadrifoglio verde


    Picked up the last of the milleniums in molloys in clobdalkin. So far, it's beer of the year for me. Bloody dangerous at 10%, as it's so easy to drink


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,162 ✭✭✭Passenger

    Pokertree Seven Sisters Treacle Oat Stout

    Nice aroma and a distinctive oaty, malty flavour to this stout but with a slightly bitter aftertaste too. Very watery however with medium carbonation.

    About to crack open a bottle of O'Hara's Barrel Aged Barley Wine.
