I was rightfully hesitant to buy a Rickard's product as they are typically mediocre. This beer can only one day aspire to be mediocre, and I'm unlikely to drink the rest of this six pack by March.

That Kloster looks interesting, must try. Boulevard Calling IPA. Lagunitas Something Wild. Maybe Glennfich later. Dough for Pan de Muerte is rising.

It's very good, especially for a Lager. I'd love to try some of their other stuff.
Brewed by the monks at a monastery in Bavaria. Weltenburger is the second oldest brewery in the world, having started in 1050. The oldest is one of my other favorite breweries - Weihenstephaner - which also started as a monastic brewery in Bavaria in 1040.
It's a shame that Weltenburger isn't carried around here. I picked this one up on a recent out of state trip. Now I'm going to have to stock up on more of their stuff the next time I find it.
I also grabbed another new (to me) German monastic beer that I'm planning to try next: a hefeweizen from Kloster Andechs. Though they've only been brewing since 1455, compared to 1040/1050 like the two I previously mention.

Dar, Jeffersons is great bourbon! And PASig---- I love the Leffe, good choice.
Anyone have experience with the pre-made Manhattans? Jeffersons makes one but I can't find it, have seen a few others at liquor stores but I'd prefer a SF recommendation.

Lagunitas Doppel sticky. This is an interesting beer like an IPA without bitterness
Edit to add
Having Guinness nitro IPA. A very European IPA not overly hoppy and bitter like an American IPA. Smooth nice flavors.This message has been edited. Last edited by: GA Gator,
