Pelican Brewing - India Pelican Ale

Well I was asked to do a guest post by this dude who does daily beer reviews in a very creative manner. I really like him because he thinks Lakefront Brewing sucks. I think they suck too. I jumped at the opportunity and decided to review one of my favorite beers: Pelican IPA. Check it out, loser.

Neat memories of Oregan. Was it in Oregan you told me quicksand was on the beaches and seals were sea monsters in disguise? Or was that a different beach?

Beer = gag a maggot

If all I could get was Coors Light I wouldn't like beer either.

^Amen, CA. I hated beer until about five-ish years ago when one of my BFF's talked me into trying GOOD beer. I've been hooked ever since. As I told someone, comparing Bud to a great craft beer is like comparing canned asparagus to fresh. Yo.

Speaking of which, I thought of you last night at dinner--the hubs and I went out to the local pizza joint where they have Arrogant Bastard Ale on tap. I told the hubs, "Now, this is a great beer for the Cooking Asshole dude." Plus, it's cool to order--"I'll have an Arrogant Bastard."

I do enjoy an Arrogant Bastard from time to time. Stone is a fantastic brewery. I love their smoked porter.

I will add the smoked porter to my beer wish list. There is a GREAT beer store in the ATL--HopCity--that has more than 1400 beers so I will check for it the next time I am there.

Great choice, bunny. Personally, I love Stone Ruination, but if you don't like hops, go for that porter.

Cooking Asshole said...

Hey Beer,
what stone brews have you reviewed?

bunny said...

Yeah, I am not a big hops girl (even though my nickname is Bunny--hardee-har!). I am all about the wheat/amber/dark ales, some stouts and porters. Some faves include Rogue Chocolate Stout, New Belgium 1552, TommyKnocker Maple Nut Brown. If you dudes have any suggestions in these catagories, I would love to hear them.

Cooking Asshole said...

Rogue - Hazelnut Brown
Lost Coast - Downtown Brown
Big Sky - Moose Drool
Deschutes - Obsidian Stout
Avery - Ellie's Brown Ale

I will think of more...

bunny said...

Oh, I have me a bottle of Hazelnut Brown from HopCity. I have been "saving" it to enjoy at my leisure. Thanks for the other recommends and keep them coming!

I've had a bunch of Stone brews, probably all of them that are available here. Damn solid each and every one.

Stone IPA

Stone Cali-Belgie IPA (which is supposed to be the twin of the IPA but grew up in Belgium, some crap like that)

Levitation Ale

Smoked Porter

Ruination

Imperial Russian Stout

and of course the Arrogant Bastard, which I actually had the "Oaked" version.
