    Ofest 2011 – The Aftermath

    Posted: October 3rd, 2011, 6:41pm CEST by Al

    bottle capsWell, that’s it then. Don and Max have already departed for home; I’m just waiting to head down to the station to catch my train. Ron (and by extension, his family) is an excellent host.

    As always, it was great to see one another and catch up with our lives. We played cards and video games, watched football (the Giants caught a break to be sure), but mostly we talked.

    Oh, and we had beer. Here’s the list:

    1. 15th Anniversary Escondidian Imperial Black IPA by Stone Brewing Co.
    2. A Little Sumpin’ Wild by Lagunitas Brewing Company
    3. Anchor Humming Ale by Anchor Brewing Company
    4. Big Bear Black Stout by Bear Republic Brewing Co.
    5. B.O.R.I.S. The Crusher Oatmeal-Imperial Stout by Hoppin Frog Brewery
    6. Captain’s Reserve Imperial IPA by Captain Lawrence Brewing Company
    7. Dirty Blonde Ale by Adirondack Pub & Brewery
    8. Guinness Foreign Extra Stout
    9. Harvest Ale by Southern Tier Brewing Company
    10. Heavy Seas The Great Pumpkin by Clipper City Brewing Co.
    11. Heinnieweisse Weissebier by Butternuts Beer & Ale
    12. Imperial Porter Brewmasters Reserve 2011 by Full Sail Brewing Company
    13. Keller Pils by Southampton Publick House
    14. My Antonia by Dogfish Head Craft Brewery
    15. Oktoberfest by Brooklyn Brewery
    16. Oktoberfest by Otter Creek Brewing
    17. Oktoberfest by Sly Fox Brewing Company
    18. Old Horizontal by Victory Brewing Company
      • Aged three years!
    19. Snake Chaser by Lakefront Brewery
    20. Snake Dog IPA by Flying Dog Brewery
    21. Toxic Sludge by Blue Point Brewing Co
    22. Union Jack by Firestone Walker Brewing Company
    23. Vanilla Porter by Breckenridge Brewery
    24. Whiskey Barrel Aged Porter by Brown’s Brewing Company
    We don’t try to rate them or anything, but there were a few that stood out. The Captain’s Reserve Imperial IPA and The Great Pumpkin from Heavy Seas were both pleasant surprises. It certainly was a pleasant way to spend four rainy days. I can’t wait to do it again next year. Related Posts:
