Holiday beer

A friendly beer swap with friends in San Diego and nyc resulted in many yummy beers. Sadly I felt that this cold I have is unfair to the quality of available brews. I enjoyed very much, Prescott brewing's Ponderosa india pale ale and Grand Canyon's Black Iron IPA. I believe in the healing powers of Hops :)

SunUp!

We (T-Rex and I) then went to Sun Devil Liquors!

Sun Up was yummy.

And I had mikeller Hoppy Easter which was STOLEN from my fridge by my
wife...

All good times. The brewwer from SunUp was awesome. He genuinely took
the time to talk with us. It was awesome and he was NOT a douche!

Now at Papago and enjoying New Belgium Lips of Faith "Erics Ale" sour

Thank you SO MUCH Jess! :)

Sun devil liquor!

Another tasting! Holy crap!!!

So whole foods team member told us that SunUp is at Sun Devil!

Very nice and "speakeasy" ish

Ipa- super punch you in the face hoppy. Travis loves it. 6.2%

Whole Foods Green Flash Class!

Starting with Diamondback Dist rep we're tasting:

Green Flash IPA WOW was that hoppy for the sake of being hoppy. Travis
says Chalky

LeFreak I never would have guessed 9.2% That was yummy :)

Imperial IPA- definitely more smooth than the IPA, but at 9.4% a taste
is good

Stout- wow, lots of words on the label. 8.8 % medicinal, paint, nice
and smooth

Grand Cru- 9.1 % and delish. Very delish.

Barleywine- 10.9 % and... Not the best barleywine I've had. Too bad
the finished the tasting with this :-/

Word to the wise: Cutthroat Porter by Odell is a completely different experience on nitro. Yucca Tap Room in Tempe has finally become a tap room and has it.
Todays beer o' amazingness: Lagunitas Undercover.
This phenominal double IPA pushes the realm of Barley Wine without the bitterness. Absolutely a must try!!

Quelque Chose

Can't pronounce it, but this Quebec beer is quite tasty. A bit Kool-
Aid ish on the cherry end, but extremely delish

A blend of dark ale and brown ale brewed with cherries.
