Magic Hat #9 - good stuff
Bud Light Platinum. Only wanted a six pack and they didn't have Bud Light. Not bad for a light beer, better than Bud Light.
Indeed Daytripper on draft. I can have up to 6 on tap, currently the Daytripper, Odell's IPA and Lucid Foto. Looking at bringing Bells Two Hearted Ale into the fold soon.
Goose Island Lolita
Nektar Mead - actually very refreshing
Heavy Seas Loose Cannon IPA. Very well balanced IPA. Will buy more.
PH
PH
Granville Island Lions Winter Ale
Goose Island Juliet
I drank a few Devil's Backbone Vienna Lagers last night on happy hour. One of my favorite VA beers.

Dogfish Head 61 IPA - a 6% IPA infused with a syrah grape. It works nicely.
Just picked up a 4-pack of this for tomorrow. It sounds like a funky combo, but the "Noble Rot" was pretty good.
Right now, Rogue Dead Guy Ale.
Picked up some Lagunitas Pils, looking forward to trying it.

Shane, I have had several of these over the last couple of years. Do you or others feel that there is variability between years? Are there good vintages and bad? I see the year on the cap, but I personally do not get the significance of it. To me, it is a little bit like asking what year a Budweiser was made. Most people drink the beer within a couple months of buying it anyway. Would you suggest that aging the bottle will make it better? After all, why else would the vintage be important.
Thanks for your thoughts.

it is a beer that can age... so if drinking young, there is probably little variation, but it definitely shows its individual profile after some age. happy thanksgiving to your family wine doc. like the sours from russian river, they can really shine with some age on them.
On tap at Two Brothers:
Outlaw IPA (Cask)
Sidekick IPA
Outlaw IPA (Cask)
Sidekick IPA
i was able to pick up 2 cases at $7/bottle of the matilda... will be drinking quite a bit in the short term but setting 7-8 bottles aside to age.

Thanks for the info TPE, I will try it one day! Great hearing from you and I hope you have a great Thanksgiving. Looks like we will be moving to California (LA) in the very near future!
