Is coconut fairly coconutty? |
Anyone heading to prop days? I looked at my calendar a few days ago and noticed I had a rare weekend with no plans so the wife and I are headed to Chicago on Friday and coming back Sunday.

How was it? |
We need the Prop Day report!
And I've been lacking heavy stouts (hell, looks like the last pic I posted was early September from Equilibrium :shake: ).... this one is amazing, great cinnamon flavor with the maple syrup. Headed to Prairie in a couple weeks, another long-time bucket list type of breweries (and probably tops Southern Tier in that category, with the amount of beer they produce). https://i.imgur.com/IoH5IzJ.jpg |
One of the few times I didn't run out to grab some BCS on Black Friday, but happened to run by a place and got a Banana Foster...it's solid, some good banana but not overpowering. Definitely not the level of OHSO Bananarchy, but a good pour.
|
Oh hey. Sorry.
I really enjoyed the entire lineup except the Backyard - way too jammy/sweet. Bananas foster is a really good variant and widely available. |
I think Goose Island just did a big release of stouts Friday. Looks pretty impressive.

Heading to Phoenix for the KU bowl game. What are the best breweries/bars that you guys would recommend?

Sleepy Whale Beer Barn The Wandering Tortoise Breweries Meh...but if you must then Wren House The Shop (Tempe) I'm also watching ticket prices and will probably go, Chase seems like a weird location fitting a football field in a domed stadium when there's a perfectly good college stadium that seats more available but my Guaranteed Rate mortgage was sold to Chase earlier this year so it make sense |
I hadn't seen KU was here, so that's cool... Chase Field is an interesting choice to host a bowl game.
Wren House is a local favorite Tombstone Arizona Wilderness Fate in Scottsdale/Tempe OHSO has several locations around Scottsdale/Tempe/Gilbert... I don't think their regular stuff is anything special, but they make killer stouts. Downtown-ish... Angel's Trumpet House, The Theodore, Wandering Tortoise, King's Beer & Wine (half bar with like 50 taps, half beer store). Ground Control is great, but it's out a ways from downtown. Rift Wine Bar and Tap in south Scottsdale is cool, but relatively small. If you're here long enough for a Chiefs game, Rooster Tavern in Scottsdale is a cool Chiefs bar. |

1a Wren House 1b Kitsune 2 Roses by the Stairs 3 Simple Machine 4 Arizona Wilderness (either location) 5 The Shop (their beers are okay but its a cool spot in an ideal location) I like Tombstone's beers but their PHX location is kind of a turd I also probably sell PHX breweries short but there's not a ton to be excited about...yet, we're getting there This distribution footprint here is where its at though which is why I recommended the better beer bars. We get a bunch of stuff from San Diego, LA, Portland, Seattle, Denver, and Florida Also if you're into mead, the Superstition downtown location is pretty cool |
Quote:
And yeah, granted I haven't been to many of the Arizona breweries, it's mostly because I don't see any killer lineups whenever I do a bit of research... love going to OHSO for a 15% stout or Fate just for the one stout they haven't released in two years (:cuss: ), but not sure I've seen a flight-worthy lineup anywhere for Arizona beers (but need to lookup a couple on your list). |
Quote:
Honest answer is that Wren House and AZ Wilderness have decent sour/wild programs The barely beer, dessert sours, you can find in abundance everywhere here On a more positive note BL Darkstar November variants are around the city DSN 3 - the Rittenhouse barrel is the most fire imo https://i.imgur.com/r8rnTEm.jpg |
Quote:
Plain old Darkstar November is already freaking great. |
I need to hit up Craft Beer Quick Stop... if they're keeping untappd up to date, I could spend $500 there right now. LMAO Looks like they have at least a couple of those variants, too.

A lot of places like this also have sneaky good bourbon bottles though AZ built different https://i.imgur.com/sZLd4zy.jpg |
Yeah, I've been pining over their FB page all this time like they were posting Tyreek highlights.
I haven't really looked for bourbon much around Phoenix, but will have to start. |

Bought two Fate glasses and a 4 pack of Candy Bar Stout to go. Had a nice lunch too.

Stout season!
Okay, it's 80°.... First time trying this one and it's right up there with Bananarchy... smells like a caramelized banana. https://i.imgur.com/lXUHClP.jpg |

Nick definitely knows beer. I can throw in some of his stuff too if that's what you're looking for. :)

We had our first CP AZ Collab. Well, KCU did all the work, but lewdog and I contributed our expert beer drinking opinions on adjuncts (and then our expert beer drinking).
A sour with peach, mango, and vanilla. Turned out great and a perfect beer for the beautiful 95° day in the shadow of Pool Buddha, along with sampling a few Drekkers, TG Strawberry Shortcake Fandango, Bourbon Barrel Ale, etc. It was the perfect day out in Globe. A few of the suggested names... Peach Mandango (lewdog) ....I think this may have been the winner?

That beer perch looked like a good idea until some dumbass put his up there and promptly spilled it all over.
