Summer Beer Thread - 2016

I have tried all the BJ brews. It's hard for me to pass up the Tatanka Stout. Just like it is hard for me to pass up the Mongolian Beef at P.F. Changs.

Is the Tananka stout their own beer? I tried their amber and their stout and both were pretty good.

Parishś Reve stout uses coffee from Reve downtown. So double local!

YES! It's funny hearing about NOLA and BR people searching high and low for Ghost when I can easily stock up at the brewery when there is a release

None the less, it is a very hot commodity

As BR and NOLA folks that like IPAs try Ghost... they all like it. It's a hot commodity because it's very good. Even though Parish is very special as a local microbrew, I think it's great that Parish is getting a solid distribution going in Louisiana.

Z, you know us boys from the Nort'side were ahead of our time. In the early 80s we got the finest of brews, Tuborg Gold, from Minute Mart. Went well with various other types of gold.

Have to say the Oolong Sea Bass is pretty tasty after the chicken lettuce wrap appetizer.

The old Minute Mart. Chocolate Soldier. The female butcher with the mustache. Good times. I remember we used to go their with no shoes on, on our bikes.

What do you guys think about the Cajun Brewing products? I've had Cajun Wit (maybe the only one available) at Pete's (at $6 a freaking beer -- C'mon Charlie!) and thought it was pretty decent.

I like the Cajun Wit...kinda reminds me of Blue Moon. Can't wait for their Bayou Brunette and the yet to be named Red Ale!

This board needs an updated beer thread. Not that the issues raised last night aren't important. They are important, and quite infuriating if true.

But having said that, to lighten the mood some....

Enjoying the New Mexico GOAT in this 100 plus degree weather.

ETA: I have no clue why picture from my phone post sideways.

Le Cumbre Beer you sent to me today was unbelievable. Best wheat ale I ever drank.

New Local brewery called the Broken Wheel Brewery in Marksville. Give them a try if you are ever in town. I like the Spring Bayou Blonde and their seasonal LA Vielle wheat beer. They will be in Lafayette at the Gulf Brew Festival on July 23rd.
