Ha, Bahku.

I just cracked one of Pyramid's Seasonal Ales, Outburst, an imperial IPA.

Solid. Everything you want and expect from an imperial IPA. Lots of hoppiness, and 8.5% ABV.

I have been drinking a lot of Harpoon IPA lately and it's ok.

Some amazing beers I've had in the last 2 weeks:

1) Nugget Nectar from Troegs Brewing: It is an imperial amber full of more hops than a bunny rabbit. Not as potent as a Dogfish Head IPA, at 7.5% its responsible (for a mircobrew) and tasty, with enough body to balance the hops but not ruin your equilibrium. Great beer..my favorite I've had in the last 2 months or so.

2) Hop Rod Rye From Bear Republic: Wow...if the Nugget Nectar is my favorite, this is my second. I love the Bear Rep Racer 5 IPA, but this easily surpasses my buddy the racer 5. It comes off as a bitterly creamy IPA. I don't know how else to describe it, but its amazing. Highly recommended.

Had some bud light lime last week.  It tasted like summer and 85 degree days.

Ipswich IPA....very good, lots of hops flavor, kind of bitter. I prefer my beer with less of this type of kick but it was a different type of taste, in a good way.

Apparently it is national beer day or something. Picked up some Kennebunk IPA's (for me) and Kennebunk Blueberry wheats (for the girl)

Not positive if i've had them before or not but they were on the cheap end beers at trader joe's and I know they can't be that bad. All beers from Maine are pretty awesome

For the sake of scientific inquiry, please share your/your girl's assessments of these two beers. I see them at TJ's all the time, and have thought about trying them, but instead end up going with the tried and true beers I usually get there.

Genesee Light is the Rebecca Black's "Friday" of beers - it's objectively awful, but sooner or later you'll catch yourself humming along.

Okay, I have to admit I haven't read all 14 pages but I find it had to believe no one has mentioned the most ovious.

Hapoon CELTIC Ale.

And it's very good also.

Its the best of Harpoon's seasonals.

Is that an Irish-style red? Can't say I'm much of a fan of those.

Yep

I don't really care for the Octoberfest beer, or the Winter Warmer, or the summer, so the Celtic Ale is my default favorite.

It is, so you might not like it. Oh well, I guess that's why they make so many different types.

Got to like the name though.
