swinging by de garde brewing tomorrow on my roadtrip down to northern california. looks like excellent timing (although when is it not?) as imperial peach bu, the lucy, and the boysen are all available for bottles-to-go. they also have block 15 sticky hand's on as their guest tap, so there's that, too.

Sounds like someone who's never had heady topper. #bitterwalky
I have been drinking some excellent beers lately. I can't wait to post a list of some of the highlights. News at 11. what the wagon calls, and that is OK.
In the spirit of walky's walkyness, I enjoyed a roanoke va craft brewery tour yesterday and probably tripled the amount of beer I've drank in the last year. I have tasting notes on 15 beers to share tomorrow!!
Sit tight!! (Until tomorrow!)

swung by de garde brewing on sunday to find out they were closed due to the flooding. was real bummed because our plan was to stop in and take a nice long break from driving down the coast to california, and really, there's nothing else around tillamook. they had a nice note posted on the door to call with any questions if you came from out of town. i called the number to see if there was anywhere around town i could buy their beers since i've never had them before, and the nice women on the phone asked if i could wait 15 minutes, and that she'd come down and open up.
about 20 minutes later, we were inside de garde, just the three of us, tasting their four beers they had on tap (bu, berry bu, stone bu, and cran bu), shooting the shit with the co-owner. i bought 1.5 cases of their beer, exchanged the only beer i had with me in the car (a fremont 4-pack) as a thanks, and left humbled and more or less speechless about the whole situation.
two things really stuck out. one - i hope i can one day have a profession where i'd go that far out of my way to show how much i care about my work, and two - their beer is fucking amazing. the labeling, the ingredients, the process, the prices… it's all stuck out as completely original without escaping the idea that it's just beer.
i very much look forward to opening bottles of their bu, mperial peach bu, boysen, lucy, and petite desay that i purchased, and hope i can make it back there soon to drink more of their beer.

Drunk walky is back for good.

not beer, but I joined this wine club where we get some bottles delivered a few times a year
prices are really good and the wifey isn't too picky as long it's the type she likes (pinot noir)
But we got two bottles of this and it's not a bad wine, but I can only wonder if this brand is really regretting their name choice
Too bad James isn't here to make some inappropriate comment
Although you do need to use a really big knife to get the cork off :o

so why does some beer freeze at certain temperatures while other does not?
Alcohol content?

yeah the one that doesn't freeze is 10% Beer Thousand.. and the other that does freeze is yuengling
so alcohol content makes the difference?

yes.
freezing point of water = 32*F
freezing point of ethanol (alcohol) = -179*f
freezing point of a 5% beer = 22*F
freezing point off a 10% beer = 11*F
the 10% beer should likely freeze overtime.
any opinion on who makes the most tasty sessionable IPA? I like the Go to by Stone but that's as far as I've gotten.
