brucin 923 Posted December 2, 2014 Had a beer I've been wanting to try for a few months. It's called "Sweet Baby Jesus". It's a peanut butter, chocolate stout. Was pretty good. My wife tried a little bit and deacribed it as "as drinking a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup in a beer form". It's not overly sweet. According to the advertising they called it "Sweet Baby Jeaus" b/c it's so good that's what you'll be saying when you taste it. Tried this stuff once. It was interesting and I agree with your wife's description. Overall I was not a fan but can see how some people would like it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gleninjersey 2,141 Posted December 2, 2014 Tried this stuff once. It was interesting and I agree with your wife's description. Overall I was not a fan but can see how some people would like it.I like peanut butter, chocolate and dark beer so I thought I would give it a try. Not bad but not going to rush out to purchase again. I actually walked into the liquor store looking for Sazerac Rye Whiskey. It's made in small batches. I had purchased a bottle there last year (liquor store next to Gertrude Hawks Chocolates on 22 in North Plainfield/Greenbrook area) and was hoping to find it again as I had finished mine some time ago. They didn't have any. So if anyone happens to come across Sazerac Rye Whiskey at a liquor store in the Bridgewater area or near by please let me know. I'll be calling a few stores today to inquire. http://buffalotracedistillery.com/brands/sazerac-rye Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Newtonian 453 Posted December 2, 2014 I'm leaning towards the Glenlivet 18... A fraction as costly as my ammo collection. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When I was in college chemistry we had the brown jugs and the white bottles of ethanol. White = 99% but contained benzene. My prof told us the first day of lab "If I ever catch you drinking the EtOH you're expelled, but if you have to drink it use the brown jugs. At least you won't die." 95% ethanol, from the brown jugs, plus grape juice was a "Purple Jesus." You drink enough of them and you see The Lord.

notmetoo 41 Posted December 14, 2014 Trying local brews as I travel has become a small hobby for me (like I need another.) I'm no connoisseur, by any stretch, but it's enjoyable. Not drinking it today, but had a Duckpin Pale Ale from Union Brewing Co. down in Balmer (Baltimore) last week. I thought it was an excellent, citrusy, beer. I'd like to try some of their others. Last night was a Two Roads Road to Ruin Double IPA up in CT. Also very good, but not as distinctive. I tend to like beers a little "hoppy" and less like something I can buy anywhere.(Sometimes a LOT hoppy, i.e. River Horse Hop Hazard.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jm1827 284 Posted December 14, 2014 Gonna go with an IPA today, just not sure which one. I will see what is available. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brucin 923 Posted December 14, 2014 Founders Backwoods Bastard. If you like beer aged in Bourbon barrels this stuff is the bomb. It is unfortunately quite pricey. $15.50 for a 4 pack at my local store. If you can locate it at a larger store it might be a bit cheaper but either way it's worth every penny.

Probably super high like 10.5% alcohol by volume. If you polished off 6 you would probably not be coherent lol. It's like getting 6 bottles worth in 4 lol. I'm going to have to try this one. Haven't been let down by a Founders brew yet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gleninjersey 2,141 Posted January 21, 2015 For Christmas I received Jack Daniel's "Winter Jack". It's an apple liqueur with Jack Daniel's whiskey and spices. I honestly didn't think it would be very good. Few nights ago I decided to give it a try. I read the little booklette attached to the neck of the bottle. "Best served warm", it read. Color me intrigued. I poured some into a microwave safe cup and nuked it for about 15 seconds. I let it cool for a bit and tasted. I was pleasantly surprised that it was very good! On the cold winter nights we've been having this would make a very nice after dinner drink or before bed drink (or both!). If you like apple or cider and enjoy whiskey and are looking for something different then I highly recommend it. http://www.jackdaniels.com/whiskey/winter-jack Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vjf915 456 Posted February 4, 2015 Stone Levitation. Not sure who is into beer, or what is available in NJ, but Stone is a very good brewery. Last time I was back in NJ, there were two bars that had a "Craft beer" section on their beer list. One bar only had Shock Top, the other bar had Shock Top and Blue Moon. I hope those bars were the exception, and that all of NJ does not think those are craft beers. Just to give a frame of reference for those who have lived in NJ all their lives, the alcohol laws suck almost as much as the gun laws. When I was stationed in Charleston, SC, you could go to the gas station on the corner and get a growler of REAL craft beer. When I was stationed in Saratoga Springs, NY, bars were open until 4am, and you could buy bottled beer or a growler from Price Chopper (which was open 24 hours a day) at any time, except between 4am and 8am.

They are a long ride for you but if you're in the area stop in either one and you won't be disappointed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeerSlayer 241 Posted February 4, 2015 Salt in Byram Twp. Has a pretty decent craft beer portfolio. There's a few others as well. I like Morris Tap too. This is coming up soon for anyone interested. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
