Friends, it's back. Back on the shelves. First in my heart among all beers. Truly proof that God exists and loves us deeply. Back to your cubicles now.
Tried a new beer recently - Leinenkugel's Fireside Nut Brown. One of the more interesting beer's I've had lately. An intense hazelnut flavor. Highly recommended.
wrong thread. this thread is about the pure majesty of the seasonal ale produced by this fine city's best brewer.
ima - That picture besmirches an otherwise perfect thread. I can only sum up my feelings through the script of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Upon being possessed by Lord Voldemort, Harry first feels thoughts of despair...deep dark fears. He is falling further and further into the evil spell. But somehow he is reminded of his friends...through the darkness he remembers their presence with him....their smiles...and he finds compassion for his evil oppressor. (HARRY) "You're the weak one...you didn't even know love...or friendship. And i feel sorry for you."
I love St Arnold's Amber, but half a bottle of their Christmas Ale made me puke. Please drink all the Christmas Ale and leave the Amber for me.
Your rejection of something so pure and beautiful leaves me pondering...nay, shuddering for...the very essence of your soul. Tread lightly, my friend.
Everything I've had from St. Arnold's has been poor. Last year's Divine was a disgrace. Sierra Nevada's Celebration Ale just came out a week or two ago--best IPA I've ever had, and that's coming from someone who thinks they're a terrible brewery otherwise. Check out Liberty's Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Ale whenever it comes out. You can even get it in one of those ridiculous giant bottles.
Well this thread has turned into one big Debbie Downer sketch. This is a celebration...not a pee party. Everything from St. Arnold is poor? What are you, hard of tasting?? What does that mean? Where am I??? What just happened?
Agreed. The celebration ale is far superior. St. Arnolds isn't bad beer. It's just not that good, either.
oh, yeah..well tech is in lubbock. and lubbock is the sound a car makes when you run over an armadillo. plus, st. arnold is awesome and crabtree is a stupid name.
St. Arnold's Christmas Ale is one of the tastiest beers I've ever had. I am not a pretentious beer snob. I dislike pretentious beer snobs. I've even gotten to the point where I don't drink as much beer as I used to, and when I do, it's trusty ole Miller Lite. But the Christmas Ale makes me want to dance. My friend has a birthday party every year and always gets a keg of the stuff. It is cool and refreshing while thick and warm and beautiful in my inner belly. I smile when I see it, I am filled with glee when I drink it, and I am super drunk and happy when done with it. Last time my friend had his party I drank wayy too much of it and ended up throwing up. It even tastes good coming up. It was like drinking it all over again. The best beer ever.
