Went treasure hunting today, an hour to kill waiting for the wife at the salon. Weyerbacher is 12.7% .Comfortably NumbView attachment 227348 .
IV been toying with the idea of home brewing, at times helping a friend with 50 Gallon batches. Its just that there are so many great creations out there these days at great prices ,i wonder if its where i want to spend my time. So far i haven't ventured past the toying stage. Great hobby though.In a few hours I will keg 5 gallons APA'ish homebrew. Hoppy, but not too hoppy. That is about $25 for a case.

I’ve never had a homebrew that I thought was really good. A few that were okay, but never truly great. I understand the appeal for doing it, but it’s very unlikely any hobbyist will be able to match the craft of a world-class brewmaster, no matter how seriously they take their hobby.
I'm lucky to have a circle of home brewing friends locally for guidance. Through dumb luck I have stumbled on some good recipes and some outstanding ones. Not to brag, but a few are quite respectable, while others are just good summer or winter ales. The best are often full grain brews that have aged a year or more. I have an Irish Red that came out exceptionally well, but needed a year to really develop. FWIW, I like my pumpkin ale better than most including Southern Tier. It went very quickly.I’ve never had a homebrew that I thought was really good. A few that were okay, but never truly great.

last time i was down in Philly visiting a friend i got to taste Weyerbacher pumpkin ale. very good. reminded me of one here from shipyard brewing. and that's also where i got to try golden monkey. for a beer that is not dark or heavy it's got a kick.
Golden Monkey is the only one i remember as being pretty good from a Victory a variety pak. Funny i don remember it as being particularly strong or high ABV. Most likely cuz all the brew i drink are strong.
Have a heck of a hard time finding this but just saw some at out local grocery store for $2 ,a good price.i like Innis and Gunn also very smooth i think i might have to go to the packy
