This thread hasn't been updated in days...for shame.
Anyhow, thanks to a tip from veritas I've got some great beers at home waiting for me. I've got a Mikkeller Tiger Baby, a bunch of New Belgium Fat Tire Amber 22 (equa - don't understand why you don't like this stuff - it's so good, but then again the only time I've had it was when I was skiing and having a blast in the high altitude), and the crown jewels are a bottle each of the RRBC Damnation, Supplication and Pliny the Elder. I've never had the Mikkeller or the RRBCs so I'm excited.
What are y'all drinking this weekend?

I tried the Amber tonight, I really enjoyed it and think I've found a beer outside of Bud, Miller or Michelob name brands.

Jumping on the Turbo Dog train...if you like Turbo Dog try the Samuel Smith Nut Brown Ale from England. Think a wayyyyyy better Newcastle. Nice and malty...I taste a lot of hazelnut if you like that.
Last night...some Troegs Nugget Nectar (very hoppy, floral type good early spring type ale), Long Trail Double Bag (VT brewery...I think this is an altbier...German brown ale...caramel), and an OE High Gravity to contradict the craft beers.
Maybe I'm 23 and retarded but I find the high gravity 24 ozs of 40s (that sounded weird) to be a great buy for like $2 and basically as tasty as macros when still very cold. You also don't have to flat out drink the thing as fast as humanly possible like with 40s before they get warm.

Going to be up in Orlando this weekend at Bay Hill. Anyone know of any places I should hit up while I'm there (breweries if any, etc.)?
Definitely going to swing by Knightly Spirits for sure.

Redlight redlight is consistently ranked one of the best pubs in the country. Go early evening before it gets crazy crowded. Also, the orlando brewing co does some decent beers and they are organic. Shipyard emporium has excellent food and the head brewer always has a small batch beer on tap.

Cool. Orlando Brewing is the closest one to where we're staying anyways. Definitely going to try to get to the others.

At least it's not gluten free (shudders).

i miss being close to redlight redlight and having knightly spirits a 45 minute drive but i'll take it that CCB is 38 minutes from me.
Let me know what you think of K.S. they have more Belgians and Euros than single micro's. A good selection of bombers but sometimes hard to buy a beer for $8-$12

Didn't come up since they tanked it at Bay Hill. Drank here this weekend. Sneaky Pete IPA and Hoppy Feet 1.5 are excellent.

Alright just finished the cigar city tour.
First thing is, it is so reasonable. 5.35 and you get a free beer and a pint glass.
Second you would be amazed at how small the facility is. Probably 3000 square feet. Truely amazing to here the output and see the facility while keeping qualIty control.

Ya I, I can't wait until the complete their expansion and start canning their beers. It is so difficult to find anything other than maduro and jai alai. Did you spend time at the bar there? If so what did you try?

How great is tocobaga, one of my absolute favorites. Not sure if you have had their Jose Marti or not but I think it is one of the best beers in the world. Unfortunately they won’t be brewing it again until next year.

This is another great thread that needs to be brought back to life.
Anyone familiar with Intuition Ale from Jacksonville. I've had some different stuff from them lately and really liked it.

My buddy works there. It's a really awesome company that treats their employees very well. Great beer too!
