Finallyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

Longest I've ever been without drinking since I started, 12 days. Got some vodka. Feeling a lot better. Music sounds a lot better. Everything is better. Good stuff.

Not entirely sure. Probably going to hit a year in the next few months.

Fair enough not that bad then I suppose.

Some new ones I've tried recently

Lagunitas Bavarian-Styled Doppel Weizen (8.7%)

Delicious, very Bavarian indeed.

Lagunitas Davey Murray's Best Scotch Ale (9.5%)

Doesn't taste like any scotch ale I've ever had. Very dark and strong. I think Oskar Blues still makes the best one though.

Sierra Nevada Bigfoot Barley Wine Style Ale (9.6%)

Delicious. Get it while you can, my local liquor store is trying to stash them where people can't find them so they don't sell so fast.

Firestone Walker's Leo V. Ursus - Fortem American Double/Imperial IPA (8.2%)

Wow, this was not at all what I was expecting. Not bitter in the slightest and is really fruity and smooth.

~~Cuthbert~~ · 03-31-2017, 09:30 AM

You drink strong beer mate.

**Frownland** · 03-31-2017, 09:30 AM

Best part of living in San Diego is that strong ales are popular on the West Coast + we have mad selection.

~~Cuthbert~~ · 03-31-2017, 09:34 AM

Strongest I can find easily is that Foreign Extra stuff. 6% or so is what I usually see though.

I've had ten per cent beer before but it was Crest/Skol Super, which tastes a bit like battery acid. The local alcoholics drink it just to get drunk.
