If I weren't so tired, I would have sat for a glass. This was in the Cleveland airport.

Thanks for sharing. Now stop posting and start drinkingSue71 wrote:Wow, my 2nd post in this thread. Be careful, the apocalypse is coming.
A friend of mine from VA is a member of the Beer Club for Men w/ his buddies in the neighborhood. They've started a blog about their beer selections, and he suggested I share it w/ y'all (I told him about you cukoos ;) ).

Don't worry about the warning you get when you first click on the link... it's got language, stories, etc in it that is NSFW (or so he told me), but I'm sure y'all would be fine with it.
Seen it many times but never stopped there. I think they on draught in many places around central NC but I have only had their amber. Your idea is a good one.August West wrote:Anyone ever been to the Red Oak Brewery just off I-85/40, exit 138, near Greensboro? They have tours and tastings on Friday afternoons. Thinking about making a run before the first Brunchgate to bring back a couple of growlers. AW.![]()
I knew if I hund around here long enough I'd pickup some of the lingo. ;)

Well, it's Stone...so it can't be bad and you can't go wrong with it.
We should contact them for a Brunchgate sponsorship.devildeac wrote:For those of you in the Triangle are:
Triangle Belgian-Style Strong Golden Ale
This strong golden ale measures in at 8% & showcases a variety of the ingredients and brewing methods that help differentiate Triangle beers. The Strong Golden is fermented at a higher temperature than our other beers adding an undercurrent of fruitiness (although there is no fruit in the beer). Very lightly filtered, the Golden exhibits complex mouthfeel, strong malt flavors, a spicy hop presence and soothing alcohol warmth, followed by a clean, dry finish. It is excellent with food as well as served by itself. Bronze Medal Winner at 2009 Carolina Championship of Beer.
Food pairings: Richer dishes, meats, cheeses, stews, smoked foods. As an after-dinner drink.
Enjoyed on draft for $4.50 for a full pint at the Mellow Mushroom on Saturday after attending a Beauty and the Beast performance at the DPAC. Slightly hazy with a yellow-orange hue and a buttery, estery nose and tastes of bananas and cloves and a hint of pepper. This was great with an everything pizza. I'd guess the IBU to be low in the 20-30 range and the ABV of 8% was not boozey at all. I have not seen any bottled products from this new brewing company in Derm but would not hesitate a moment to buy a 4 pack or 6er of this stuff of a variety 12 pack. You Derm folks might keep this brewery in mind in the fall for a Brunchgate and pick up a growler to share on a fall afternoon or evening. ;)
I have seen that but haven't pulled trigger but your review inspires me to look for a 4 pack or 6er of that and share with CB&B, my drug rep trader and my son early next month. Thanks!bluebeer wrote:Flying Dog Raging Bitch...Belgian IPA. Pours a nice amber though fairly thin looking for 8.3% ABV. Strong bitter hops up front with both pine and grapefruit. Decent malt balance that gives way to a yeasty and slightly funky finish. Really well done for this style with just the right blend of hops and yeast. Dangerously drinkable as its fairly light bodied with almost no hint of alcohol.
Definitely grab a 6er if you come across it again. Makes for a nice alternative to a typical IPA..I might even have one tonightdevildeac wrote:I have seen that but haven't pulled trigger but your review inspires me to look for a 4 pack or 6er of that and share with CB&B, my drug rep trader and my son early next month.

I bought a 6 pack once. Once. I don't know why, but it was just not one that I enjoyed as much as I hoped, given the brewer and the name of the beer. I'll be looking forward to DD's review, just to see which side of the tree he barks on.devildeac wrote:I have seen that but haven't pulled trigger but your review inspires me to look for a 4 pack or 6er of that and share with CB&B, my drug rep trader and my son early next month.

I'm going beer shopping this weekend for the tie-breaker.
