I certainly will. 😉 Gorgeous shot, where is it? Gotta love all the craft breweries in the US.


Breckenridge Colorado, 2 hours from Denver. Base elevation is 9,600 ft I was drinking that at 11,000 ft

About a month ago I went to the '100 Watt' brewery in Eindhoven with my girlfriend. Had a taste of their specialty beers on tap. The really dark one was an amazingly dark and smokey barrel aged strong (13,7%) beer. Great atmosphere too!
That looks absolutely, utterly and totally tempting.

I must say that I love those "tasting boards" of a selection of beers frequently offered by good breweries; it is an excellent way of finding out more about the range of products of a particular brewery.

Do enjoy.
 
Was it worth the wait in line? Yes, yes it was. Will I do it again next year? Most likely. It was also great to talk to the founder/owner Vinnie Cilurzo about beer for 10-15 minutes while we waited in line.

I have never, ever, ever so much as even laid eyes on this legend (for, of course, we do not have it in Europe), let alone sipped, sampled, or savoured it.

Good haul! Really wish they would get some distribution out to the east coast.


I've had to depend on friends from work with relatives who still live near the brewery to ship it to me.
 
Wouldn't class it with a Cotentin Cidre… or a good local Somerset Cider, but it was cool and tangy and not too sweet and just the right amount of alcohol to not derail the walk back home. 🙂
Fair enough.

To be perfectly candid, I have never tasted (sampled, sipped, savoured) - let alone enjoyed - a cider that comes close to the really good beers and wines that are my more usual regular fare.
