I'll go with Rogue 7 hops. Good but not earth shattering. Did have some homemade apple pie and homemade peach moonshine from my MIL. Excellent though I thought for sure she would have added rat poison. Whatcha got?
Best Brewski of the Weekend?

I was at the WIU Beerfest this weekend and had Founders Kentucky Breakfast Stout.
Outstanding.
Outstanding.
Damn Sailor. I would like to remain friends. I am so far from a beer snob it ain't even funny. Liquor has never really been my thing. Don't judge. Cheers! (Did that help?)
And to be fair, this is ole torbee's job. I'm just filling in while he wages war in the Lounge about those that are butthurt re the Iowa F'n City Shirts. Maybe I should do a best liquor of the weekend thread?
My position about beer has been staked out forever.A lot of verbal jerking off about hoppy pee water.
No one here should really think that Torbee is some sort of Hunter S Thompson gonzo intepid beer scholar.He likes cats for eff sakes.
So then what are you crying about?
SailorJerry huh? Were you in the Navy? If so, that would explain a lot.
If you like the Leine's Summer Shandy, I have to say their Harvest Shandy is pretty good too. It's made with some nutmeg and I have to give them credit for hitting on this one. I haven't liked all of their shandy series "beers", but this one is really good.
I like Whiskey- and while i am off beer for a bit, i will suggest that one should get out and get some Old Weller Bourbon. I had it his weekend. I had the Antique. Very tasty and it works if you are looking to get drunk.
Never heard of it but I'll have to try it. Just in doing some quick reading about it, it sounds pretty good and at a good price.
I've always been a fan of Basil Hayden's Bourbon and had some this weekend. Good stuff.
Give old weller a shot- or 2
I also tried Rowan's Creek for first time. Also very good and also reasonable. It is one of KBD offerings and a bit cheaper than some of the others
New Belgium Le Terroir Dry-Hopped Sour Ale.
From the website: "Le Terroir: French, meaning ‘from the terrain, soil, land, ground, earth.’ You may have heard it as a wine term speaking of the environmental conditions of the vineyard, the pH of the soil, even the slope of the land. But beer has it too, especially a New Belgium sour beer, which oozes terroir from the pores of the wooden foeders we age it in. They produce a base beer that’s golden-colored with a soft overripe peach aroma and just the right amount of tart. And after 3 years in the foeders, you can bet it has some nice earthy tones. Round out that fruity base with even more unique fruity hops like Amarillo and Galaxy, and this beer may just have more terroir than your classiest wine. And with the hop burp, compliments of the dry-hopping, Le Terroir Dry-Hopped Sour Ale is definitely classy!"
StevenPatrick to declare it the worst beer ever and a drain pour in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1....

I can't speak for Steven but, me and one of my college frat brothers split one(looking deeply into each others' eyes) at a reception of a wedding that both stood in(I was the best man, of course)and we couldn't finish the swill...

Went to The Great American Beer Festival in Denver so I had about 40 different beers. I really liked Avery Brewery out of Boulder. There IPA was solid. Also had Sam Adams Cosmic Mother Funk. That was different but delicious.
