Love Dark Swan! and most lagunitas brews are tops for me; haven't gotten to this years Waldo's yet though.
If you're ever in search of something from the NC craft scene let me know and I'd be more than willing to set up a trade |

This was delicious. The way that it stands firmly in the middle ground between beer and red wine was initially perplexing but ultimately really satisfying on a hot day. Not very fit for getting wasted though, since more than one is a bit rich for the stomach imo. 8.5% ABV so one beer will at least get you somewhere.
Got a free six pack by being the only one who entered a sweepstakes at a local liquor store. Fred Hale Sr. has been raving about Beachwood Brewing for a long time but the difficulty of finding them where I'm at on top of the price has kept me away from them. The six pack that I got was the Amalgamator IPA, which had a 7.1% ABV. Incredibly well rounded and hoppy without being too over the top with bitterness. I'll definitely be getting this one again. Lastly I got this King Goblin because I remember MLM talking about this outfit (not sure if he likes this particular one). Some of the details about this beer is that it's an English dark ale, is 6.6% ABV, and is absolutely disgusting. One of the few times I've been compelled to dump a beer down the sink. Avoid this overly sweet sewage water.
