50 Beers to Try Before You Die
Thought the beer snobs here might like this article (and probably critique the hell out of it).
http://www.wisdeo.com/articles/view_post/2984 (CBS) You've heard of "100 Bottles of Beer on the Wall"? How about 50 to try before you die?!
Spoiler!

The sour farmhouse ales are just not my style, man. I can't handle it.

It's not even really all THAT sour. It has a lot of fruit character.
Sours are a funny style; they took a while to stick with me. I just kind of kept plugging away and trying them when I had the chance. Now I can't get enough of them. And I've had some WEIRD ones. |

I love farmhouse ales, so it's kind of a double edged sword. I pretty much buy them on sight to try them, and you a lot of times I never knew whether it's gonna be sour until I pour it and take that first sniff. I've suffered through a lot of sour farmhouse ales because I didn't want to pour them out. |

Is Boulevard Two Jokers the normal taste to expect from a Witbier? Or is it a bit unique? I'm asking because I really like it, and am looking to try more. I kind of wrote Witbiers off because of the last two I've tried, one was bad and the other was Dogfish Head Red & White which I know is not the typical Witbier. Any recommendations?

I figured it would not be the norm for Witbiers. Yea, it's super good. I'll have to pick up a couple more bottles when I'm back in Houston this month.

Also, when I saw that Reaper replied to this thread, I would have bet my life that he was coming to verbally rape me for bashing the more sour farmhouse ales.

Some friends just got back from Blackberry Farms. Got to try to Classic Saison and the Screaming Cock Dubbel.
The saison was really good.

I need to get out to Blackberry Farm sometime. One of my good friends was childhood friends with the chef & she gets to stay on the farm for a few days every year gratis. Of their beers, I've tried the Dubbel, but not the Saison.

I drank a Dark Lord (2011) last weekend. Amazing.

Buffalo Bayou Brewery this morning. Not bad beers for being in Texas. Really enjoyed their Gingerbread Stout.
