Roadies and BEER with a shooter

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

With the amount of time I spend in Motown, I have a pretty good chance of making it.

Anyway, I like beer and I LOVE a good beer. Thanks to everyone on BF for sharing their favorites - looks like I've got lots of great brews to try!
So many fine beers,
So little time...

No shooters, just good craft beers:

* Three Floyds Alpha King
* Three Floyds Dreadnaught
* Three Floyds Dark Lord (expensive and only once a year)
* Three Floyds Apocalypse Cow
* Stone IPA
* Dogfish IPA's (both 60 and 90-minute)
* Goose Island IPA's (I do live in Chicago and support my local brewers)
* Almost everything from Two Brothers (another Chicago area brewer, you can't beat their keg deals either)

If it is a good craft IPA, I am game.

They are indeed mine. Note that I get boxes from the Bruery to store stuff, so it's not all Bruery beer. Yes, you'll find all the Christmas beers, all the Provisions beers, Oude Tart, Black Tuesday, barrel aged Autumn Maple, Batch 1, Papier, Coton, and lots of other Bruery stuff in there. There's also all the Firestone anniversary beers, lots and lots of Abyss, Bourbon County, Cases of St. Bernardus 12, Rochefort 8/10, Westvleteren, Dogfish 120IPA... tons of stuff.

I hate beer snobs.

PBR, Narragansett, Ballantine, Brooklyn Lager FTW.

I like the snobby stuff too, I'm just not obsessed with it to the point of not being able to enjoy something simpler.

Do you hate people for being happy?

Who said I don't enjoy some of these brews? Yes, hate is a strong word. How about I don't understand beer snobs. Is that better?

Magic Hat #9 is pretty good. A recent discovery for me but it'll be a regular.
