    Default Your Place, Your Beer!

    As fitting this time of year... Its Beer Season. Though Beer is good year round, theres just something really perfect about Beer and Summertime. How about a thread with nothing but Beer. Post a pic of your favorite Brewsky. What are you drinking. Are you a beer snob, or a bud lite guy/gal? Find something different that you just want to share... hanging out with the friends for a cold one... Post it. Lets see what you got going on in your area for beer. Only rule... its got to be your beer, no yanking canned images.

    I will start off by breaking the only rule. This is not my beer, but it's the best beer I have ever had. Josie served it to me when I visited her in Chicago. It's called Kentucky Bourbon Barrel. It cost $12. for 4 bottles of beer but it's so good, it's worth it.

    My favorite Mississippi bear is called Southern Pecan. You can clearly taste the nutty pecan undertones. Good stuff.

    Nice choice of topics and beer Al!

    I moved out here to Beervana (Portland OR) about 3 years ago and I still haven't visited all the breweries (64 within city limits). Between the great water (which I have mentioned a few times in regard to discus) combined with the perfect conditions for growing hops (cascade, simcoe, chinook, mosaic are all from PNW) there are especially good IPA's. In the fall there are a ton of "fresh hopped" beers that use non-dried hops, which are my favorite. In fact, in my neighborhood there is an annual "Fresh Hop Fest" where all the local fresh hop beers are available.

    Here is what is in my fridge now:

    Eric and I are both very fortunate to be in the very Pacific northwest right in the midst of the craft brew explosion

    Here's one similar to the one you recommended Liz 528201791434.jpg

    This is one of my fav Oregon beers.

    Have you been to boneyard? I think that is my current fav. It's really cool you choose your beer and they can the growlers for you. They have some intense hop loaded brews528201791753.jpg

    Even the farms out here are getting into it. I could have told them Hops grew well here but one of the farms here in my town has been planting hops the last year and this year they have planted more with plans to expand.


    Pretty cool stuff! I love seeing these things develop. I think I have close to 10 Breweries within 20 mins of my house.

    Oh yeah that is also a great area. Its really nice to see it spread all over the country. One of my favs is dogfishhead which I believe is in Delaware if I'm not mistaken

    Portland is beer heaven though. It's nice to run down yo your local wal mart type store and get a growler filled at the same time lol

    Eric you are a luck my man lol

    Yes, I checked out both Boneyard and Deschutes a few weeks ago when I was down in Bend and visited Ninkasi a couple months ago while I was down in Eugene. I love roadtrips in Oregon; I always pair a great nature excursion with a trip to a brewery. My #1 go to trip like this for visitors is to visit Multnomah Falls and then head over to Hood River and eat/drink at Pfriem.

    It great to see craft beer exploding everywhere... I travel to CT a lot for business, I will have to check these out!

    One of the best things about Portland's breweries is the convenience of great public transportation (light rail / trolly) so you can go from brewery to brewery and not have to find a designated driver.
