Eugene, Oregon's own

A delicious 7% dark double alt ale

I didn't take the photo, I found it online...

My God, that sounds fantastic. I wish we had that here.

I never heard of Ninkasi Brewery before, but they have some of the best beers I've had. My favorite brewery is Stone in So. Cal, and their beer is pretty rare, but can be found even up here. Ninkasi was a complete surprise. My buddy had a 22 of their Imperial Stout earlier, he said it was a delicious 9%.

Stone is one of my absolute favorite breweries! Arrogant Bastard is fantastic, but Stone Ruination is probably the best IPA I've ever had in my life. Oh, and Double Bastard is also a fantastic beer.

I'm also huge on Dogfish Head, particularly the 90 minute IPA which is one of the smoothest 9% ABV brews I've ever had. Mendocino's Eye of the Hawk is close to being 9% and I find to be way smoother.

I typically gravitate towards good beer, but being broke lately, I've had to settle for crappy beer.

When I'm broke I save for the goods.

Dogfishhead makes that fantastic Gonzo beer... I call in Hunter Thompson beer. It's amazing, delicious... why only 4?!?!?! I want 6! Instead I get 8 heh heh heh...

Edit: it's Flying Dog but DFH is delicious

I was at the store and I saw a 90 dollar bottle of Double Bastard Ale, that was 3 quarts some ounces...

I wanted to steal it lol

It's too heavy to run with. Not that I do that sort of thing. But I wanted to.

My favorite is their Imperial Russian Stout.

I love all of them though. Ruination is a great staple. Levitation was weird and light, but enjoyable. The Cali-Belgie was delicious. I haven't had them all, but over half. I love their beer. I want a growler. And I want to go to Escondido.
