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?!

Also had some Funkwerks Saison which was good, but not as good as I expected for a brewery specializing in saisons. Maybe it was because the Crooked Stave had wrecked my palate, though.
I know you've mentioned that you've been trying a lot of Saisons over the last year. Have you had a problem where you're running into some that lean to the sour side?

I've definitely run into some where the citrus notes are so dominant that they're "sour," but I wouldn't really qualify them as sours. Once again, though, I'm not really that familiar with sours.

Crooked Stave puts out excellent sour beers.

Though some traditional European Saisons have a bit of tartness from wild yeast, American brewers have really moved the Saison style more towards American Wild Ale territory with their prodigious use of barrels and different bacteria.

I'm extremely sensitive to sour, and I would certainly consider some farmhouse ales to be sour beers. For example, Goose Islands Gillian was almost a chore for me to finish because of how sour it was. My mouth almost felt raw after finishing the bottle.

Some breweries are kind enough to label them sour farmhouse ales. Meanwhile, others I have no clue about until the first sniff or sip.

Had a couple of these today-they are produced in a local brewery less than a mile away. A little strong and really tasty!

That's interesting. I've had Gillian a few times and to my palate, it feels fairly balanced and just a little bit tart. Madame Rose is the one you need to avoid also, if you see it; that stuff will cause some serious pucker. It's good but it'll scrape your palate something fierce.

Damn, man. Maybe I'm just too sensitive to it. Is there a chance the tartness varies year to year? Mine was a 2013. Even if it varies, it probably wouldn't be much of a difference. It's likely just my palate.

Thanks for the heads up on Madame Rose. I tend to stay away from wild ales though, specifically because of beers like you just mentioned.

That root beer is alright I guess. I enjoy root beer quite a bit, but couldn't see myself putting down a six pack of those things. Way too sweet.

I had Collab 5 for the first time at the brewery while in town last week. I was expecting a bigger citrus punch in the face, but enjoyed it nonetheless. I thought it was a super juicy PA and hope to find it up here.

I haven't had it. Sounds very good. I just missed it at the Brewery when I was in town.

I didn't care much for Collaboration #4, though. I thought it was kinda bland.
