  Ok. That makes more sense. On a A to F grading scale you guys seemed like miserable assholes.

  I never realized Cherry Wheat was in the Winter Sampler, especially since it's considered more of a Spring/Summer beer. I wish they would lose the Boston Lager in all their Samplers.

  I lied it may have been Cranberry Lambic. Either way I aint drinking it. Yes I agree they should ditch the Boston for 2 more Fezziwigs.

  Have any of you beer snobs been to Columbus' World of Beer yet? 500 beers bottled and 40 beers on tap. I'm leaving in a few to check it out, but the facebook page has some awesome pictures:

  I agree the Cran Lambic is bad. Awesome style of beer, but has to be done right. What did they replace it with?
  
  Speaking of Sam Adams, I read they are coming out with a new spring beer next year and that Noble Pils would be a year round beer. Extremely excited for this, might be my favorite SA beer and one of the best pilsners I've had along with Victory's Prima Pils.

  Okay. I thought I was losing it when you 'lied'...(I like the Cherry Wheat) That Lambic does nothing for me but take up a spot on my fridge and I force it down when I need more room.

  'True dat' on the Lambic. Too bad it wasn't a true Lambic as I like them very much. St Louis is the best I've found. Nice balance of the Fruit and tartness.
  
  Ahh Prima Pils my ALL TIME favorite Pilsner !!! (this from an ale guy, which I've stated over and over...kinda like the old "Best way I've found is re-heating in a skillet on a stove. But I will eat it cold.")

  Had a few GLBC Christmas Ales this week, as well as a Founders breakfast stout. Both were delicious.

  I've yet to see the GLBC Christmas Ale in Cincy. There is a beer tasting at Jungle Jims, here in Fairfield, that is a all Christmas Beers on Friday. Maybe I'll take off work and go.

  Went to WOB last night and it was incredible. I definitely recommend it.
• BORIStheCrusher

  

  Drinking a bomber of Stone Double Bastard my sister bought me last week, and damn I forgot how good this beer is. Think I'm going to follow it up with a bottle of Arrogant Bastard. I have a feeling I will be posting on the "Drunk check in" thread tonight.

  Going to go drink some shitty beer at the bar a block from my house.

  Had most of their beers and not all that impressed with any other than Gonzo Imperial Porter. Very good beer.
• OneBuckeye

  

  Had three Philosiphers from ommegang Very good. Also had winking lizards belgin handle.... Cant remember the name bit it was good also. It we made by a canadian brewery... Three phiosiphres is 10x better out of tap.
• I Wear Pants

  I didn't end up going. It's kareoke night which means a bunch of rednecks singing horrible country songs horribly. Instead I had a few of my homebrewed milk stouts. Delicious.

  I don't have GLCA available here but do have 12 Dogs. It'll definitely do for now.
