Suffered through a pitcher of this and was nauseous all night after. fast forward to this Christmas. My wife puts this very bottle in my stocking so I split it with her dad so I wouldnt have to drink it all, as I didn't have the heart to complain to her. I have no idea what they are attempting with this beer. Ftr the only drinkable beer Howe sound creates is their Pilsner. I rarely drank any draft at the brew pub and put up with many a strange look. But whatevs. its easily the worst beer I've ever had by far. I hated every particle that passed my lips this year too. Man I'm a good husband.... Ummm ok... Their Super Jupiter is one of my favourite beers and their IPA, Pilsner, Honey, Rail Ale etc are all good. To each their own... Link to comment

Everything I've had of theirs is good...just have trouble walking past all the 6-packs for their 4's I wonder if they do off sales from the brewery, it's like 15 minutes from my house.

elvis15 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I've had a couple of 33 Acres the past few weeks and enjoyed them. They're a craft brew I'd like to try more of. Then there's these two I've been saving for a while, both excellent: 10.7 and 12% respectively, and so, so good. Link to comment

Yeah, I've got a Deschutes Black Butte XXVI special edition imperial porter I've had for a year and don't think I can wait much longer to drink it. Most expensive bottle of beer I've ever bought ($20 for a bomber) but just itching to try it. As for the two I posted, my wife is a support worker and helps clients on their daily tasks. One guy likes beer so she takes him to the liquor store as a part of their weekly routine, and I know they'd been going to Highgate in Burnaby for awhile. I'd assume this was from there (have had them for several months, so no idea if they still have any stock). Link to comment

elvis15 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 The Rural Brewer was nice when I had it a couple years back in my first advent calendar. Haven't had the others though. Link to comment
PhillipBlunt Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Guinness: The true king of beers Harp: The best lager there is. Young's Double Chocolate Stout: Delicious, but not available in BC in the widget can. Is available in Washington though. Granville Island Winter Ale Moose Drool from Missoula Montana As an aside, I am getting plenty tired of how truly pathetic the selection of beer and wine is in this province. It's embarrassing to bring friends here from the States and outside of BC to see how truly behind the times and archaic British Columbia is in regards to alcohol. The Liquor Distribution Branch is the single biggest issue standing in the way of the evolution of BC's liquor laws. This grossly, inflated governmental body is a huge waste of taxpayer money and does more to inflate the cost of alcohol in this province than any other factor. It's time for it to die and take all the parasitic LQ store workers with it. Link to comment

Haven't had the others though. the anxiety is a dirty, sassy liquor. clocking in at 8%, it hits you hard and often XD it's an odd brew, it poured a nice, light peach colour, and it tasted like it had beet and orange? very weird but it was good. first few sips my mouth was trying to process it. if anxiety had a flavour, that would be it i quite liked the old pappy's. typical amber ale with a hoppy finish im in to this guy right now, and i love it only way to describe it, it tastes like a slightly hoppy christmas tree LOL Link to comment
elvis15 Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Won a side raffle at our rugby fundraiser tonight, and came away with this: It's deceiving how big it is, so that's a regular bottle of beer on the left, and a bomber on the right. 6L of La Fin du Monde. Link to comment
D-Money Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 /\ Beautiful. I find just one liter of La Fin to be a solid night. That will almost supply the whole poker table. Link to comment

Congrats on both the beer, and still being able to play a true gentlemens' game. Is there a better smell than mud in the cleats? Okay, beer after a hard game smells great too. Link to comment
