so if sam adams holiday porter (yeah, whatever) is like my favorite beer ever and doesn't appear to be in the winter seasonal 12-pack anymore, what do i get?

steve dave · « **Reply #1976 on:** November 01, 2013, 10:34:28 PM »

I never had their holiday porter. I'd just go with another porter maybe? winter seasonals are so cozy.

Great Lakes Brewing Company

Christmas Ale 2013

Whatever they changed this year is for the better. Best Christmas ale I've ever had.

Went to Madison WI this past weekend. Enjoyed several New Glarus beers, some Lakefront, O'so, Capital, Rush River, and Ale Asylum brews. All good stuff.

sam adams holiday pack licks ballsacks and taints this year. asked the sam adams twitter person and they told me they did not brew ANY holiday porter this year, so i'm kinda mad at those assholes.

Gluten free beer is worse than N/A beer. HORRID.

I'm glad this was bumped up. I can't wait to pop by the LS and grab some holiday porters, etc... I finished off my sixer of left hand brew nitro stout last night. Love it but I drink it way too fast.

Can't even drink Tank 7 anymore because I blacked out and pissed on a wall in my friend's bathroom. </fanningbrag>

steve dave · « **Reply #1992 on:** November 07, 2013, 08:03:19 AM »

Tank 7 is blackout fuel. it's weird because it's not THAT high in alcohol.

Tobias · « **Reply #1993 on:** November 07, 2013, 08:12:12 AM »

everyone is on a mission to find me a beer most similar to sam adams holiday porter (prize to be determined at a later date). you can work alone, in groups, etc

guys, confession.. I really don't like IPA's. Especially when the weather is cold, I just want a dark beer and to fall asleep.

whew I feel better.

I crack the windows, and binge in the frosty cold air. One of my absolute favorite things.

i picture 'meister sitting alone at a table in a dark room, staring out an open window as the frigid breeze blows his hair back while he lovingly crushes 12 or so odell isolations

Me neither.

"Hey, let's see how much hops we can put in this beer! It will be great."

Over and over and over.

GMB.

Really can't put enough emphasis on "lovingly"
