Nzoner's Game Room>50 Beers to Try Before You Die
NewChief 06:18 AM 04-24-2010
Thought the beer snobs here might like this article (and probably critique the hell out of it).

(CBS) You've heard of "100 Bottles of Beer on the Wall"?

How about 50 to try before you die?!
Spoiler!

I have seen Temptation a few places around here but the $20 price tag has kept me away. Their Supplication sounds interesting.

Most people think the Supplication is the best of the Russian River "-ation" series of American Wild Ales. I haven't been able to try the Supplication yet.

I might need to try it sometime. It's also pretty steep for a beer at around $13 for a 375 ml but sounds like it would be worth trying at least once.

I think the other one I have seen a few times without really looking is Damnation.

I love supplication I also like the consecration. I had consecration on tap and it is very very different then anything i have had before, good but strange.

Damnation, despite the "-ation" suffix, is not a sour beer. It is a Belgian Strong Pale Ale ala Duvel.

YAY for sour beers!

Thanks. I like Duvel so I will give it a shot. Really wasn't familiar with Russian River until recently so I look forward to trying a few of them.

Damn solid beer.

Shame I can't get anymore.

I've called 4 different liquor superstores in town and they've told me they won't get anymore until next spring.

Same with Sam Adams Noble Pils.

That doesn't make sense. Tank 7 is not a seasonal beer. Now, Noble Pils is a seasonal release. But Tank 7 is a year-round beer.

Interesting.

I was told it was a limited release outside of KC.

Matter of fact, the stores I regularly buy from had 10+ bottles of other Smokestack varieties in stock, and I was lucky enough to find one store that had a bottle left of T7.

That is a little odd. It is just as easy to find as most of the Smokestack series around here.

I guess I'll make some calls, then.

After the 3rd store said the same thing, I just assumed these jackholes knew what they were talking about.

Hell, I'd like to buy a case of it, if I could find it.

I'm definitely grabbing some while I'm in town for the Bash, but I want more NOW.

Tonight I have had a revelation of a beer. De Struise Black Damnation II: Mocha Bomb. De Struise has this series of beers called Black Damnation. Each of them are crazy imperial stouts based on their already world class imperial stout Black Albert. Black Damnation II: Mocha Bomb is an insane blend of 50% Black Albert that has had a lot of Columbian craft coffee beans added, 25% De Struise Cuvee Delphine (Black Albert aged in Four Roses bourbon barrels) and 25% Hel & Verdoemenis (an imperial stout from De Molen brewery that was aged on Jack Daniels barrels for half a year).

Read my review on the hyperlink. This is the best blend of a coffee-forward stout & a barrel-aged stout that I've ever had, and that includes Founders famed Kentucky Breakfast Stout and Canadian Breakfast Stout. Canadian Breakfast Stout is really fucking rare - never bottled but offered on-tap in major cities at least one time. KC and STL are going to get it in for a second time really soon). Black Damnation II is better and rarer. The Black Damnation series is not, and will not be, available for retail anywhere in America. I got mine straight from the brewery because I know a guy who knows a guy. And I still have one more bottle left of this elixir.

Tomorrow: De Struise Black Damnation III!
