My new favorite beer is Longboard by Kona Brewing Co. I don’t really do the heavy stuff anymore, so this is nice compromise as it is a lager, similar to a Red Stripe. Very tasty.

I have a love-hate relationship with Kona Brewing. Since they sold to CBA, their beers have changed. I think they taste more "mainstream" now. Probably has to do with most of their beers being produced in Cali.

I just became familiar with them about a year ago. I have had a couple of the others, but was not as impressed as with LB. Then again, I get excited if a bar has Rolling Rock on-tap lol. There was a time when I could drink just about anything, but now, mainstream suits me just fine.

Deschutes Hop Trip fresh hop pale ale. Pretty good stuff.

Note to self: better queso is always worth the extra dollar.

I was at a bar, last night, and the Hanalei Island IPA was on tap. I tried it, because it was one of two beers on draught (it's a small bar) and the other was a pilsner. I did not like it. Too fruity.

I have tried some of these beers that have hints of fruit, like grapefruit, and I can’t do them either bro. Just tastes weird to me. The way my taste buds have changed is strange in itself. I used to love Guiness, now I think it’s the nastiest thing I’ve ever had lol. I thought I was supposed to refine as I aged?

How did you like the no chill? Super expensive especially when i can get son of a Baptist or founders breakfast stout for much cheaper.

I'm hoping I got a bad can, but the one I tried today I couldn't finish. Thin. Weak head. Just tasted and felt flat as hell. Usually PAA is on point, but this was upsetting... especially at 12.99 for a 4 pack of cans.

Out of curiosity, what are the Pappy prices (bar pricing), where you are? I went to a place that has been open for years, here in Downtown Honolulu, for the first time. Their whisky prices are stunningly low (for Hawaii.) I would love a price-check.

Anyone else catch this 19 Crimes ap where you hold your phone to the bottle and the person on the bottle begins talking Disneyland Haunted Mansion style and they tell the story behind their specific crime??

Very clever marketing.

Pipeworks Brewing Ninja vs Unicorn double ipa. Crushable, not a ton of body, but good stuff.

Excel makes beer too apparently. Black Breath: a stout aged in rum barrels. A little boozy but tons of sweet stout flavors, needs more rum to balance this.

This sounds great; exactly my type of beer. I've never even heard of this brewery, so I highly doubt I'll find it, here. Sad.
