Stone 15th Anniversary Escondidian Imperial Black IPA

Well, at least Monday is over. I didn’t go to the gym today because I was absolutely exhausted. For some reason or another, my girlfriend (who is older than me) thinks that we’re 17 and can be on the phone until 1 in the morning and I can function at work. She’s lucky she’s cute [...]

Stone Cherry Chocolate Stout

It’s almost Friday! Today was a long day at work filled with meetings. I had a decent day at the gym and now my night is filled with Always Sunny in Philadelphia and a beer review. Sounds like a great night to me. ABV: 7.3% Style: Milk/Sweet Stout Trivia: According to the brewery website, “San [...]

Stone Cali-Belgique IPA

My sister and I went to a seafood restaurant in town for dinner. I really had no expectations about the beer list. I mean, the menu looked amazing, but how many places have a great beer menu? I was shocked at the fact that this place had 10 craft beers on tap and probably 75 [...]

Stone Old Guardian BELGO Barleywine

It’s pouring rain here and I’m just waiting for the power to go out. Every time there is a thunder storm here, the power cuts out because we have above ground lines here. Since it’s Spring, I’m going to crack open this barleywine before the weather gets too warm. What I probably should have done [...]

Green Flash/Pizza Port Carlsbad/Stone Highway 78 Scotch Ale

Today was a good day. The doctor cleared me to take off the brace for my thumb and I can go back to the gym. I just have to be careful not to open it again and wait for the steri-strips to fall off. AND…the Phillies are winning against the Mets, so I can actually [...]

BrewDog/Stone Bashah

It’s been a crazy week. I’m so happy that it’s the weekend. I was in a really bad mood today, so to make myself feel better, I made an unnecessary beer run and then went to Wegmans to get stuff to try out some recipes to tailgate for opening night. I came home, prepped some [...]

Stone/Ballast Point/Kelsey McNair San Diego County Session Ale

I pulled this bad boy out to watch the Jets game. After watching the first quarter, I’m thinking that I may need to switch to something stronger. I’m a diehard Eagles fan, but I like the Jets as well since my buddy Joe takes me to a lot of games. ABV: 4.2% Style: American Pale [...]

Dogfish Head Saison DuBUFF

I grabbed this one out of the fridge since I’m trying to do a “first in, first out” type of deal. I’ve had both of the Victory and Stone offerings prior to this, so I pretty much know what to expect. So far, I think Victory is better than Stone’s. But, we’ll see if this [...]

Stone 14th Anniversary Emperial IPA

This was the second beer that I had at the Pour House. I saw it on tap, and given that I tend to like Stone’s stuff, I thought it would be decent. Instead of giving me the brew on tap (or asking), the waitress brought me a bomber. I told her that I wanted it [...]

Stone Arrogant Bastard Ale

After finishing up at Buffalo Wild Wings, we headed out to Asbury Park. I took a few hour break from beer and then we ended up at the Brickwall Tavern. They have a rotating selection of craft brews on tap and in the bottle. The featured bottle was Stone’s Arrogant Bastard Ale. I’ve already had [...]
