With no regard to what's hoppy in my fridge, I'm stocked on the following: - Victory Golden Monkey - Victory Old Horizontal - Mendocino Eye of the Hawk - Bear Republic Red Rocket - Two Brothers Domaine Dupage - Captain Lawrence Liquid Gold - Lagunitas Imperial Red - Southern Tier HopSun - Aecht Marzen - Sierra Nevada Bigfoot - Sierra Nevada Hoptimum - Sierra Nevada Kellerweiss - Sierra Nevada Porter - Otter Creek Porter - Paulaner Salvator - Sixpoint Sweet Action - Brooklyn East IPA - Sam Adams Black Lager - Smuttynose Finestkind It appears that I may not be a hophead
Torpedo and Sweetwater IPA. The 2 best-tasting IPAs constantly available in SC are fortunately some of the most affordable. Bottle-dated, too.
I'm lucky enough to have a Pure Hoppiness and Nelson sitting in the fridge waiting for me! I imagine after tonight, only one will remain!
That would depend on your definition of a Hophead. In old-school terms it just meant that you could appreciate hoppy American style beers as well as everything else. These days self-described Hopheads tend to primarily stick to those kinds of beers, perhaps even seeking out more extreme versions. Calling yourself a Hophead is allright by me, considering a few of what's on your list. As to me (Hophead, vintage 1980s), tonight I have on deck: Orval Prof Fritz Berliner Weiss Schneider Hopfen Weiss and Epic Hopulent Ale Now I just have to figure out the order, and whether I can even get to them all.
Although I'm a noob and this was a taste test adventure: Blue Point Hoptical Illusion (IPA) Albita Purple Haze (Blah) SN summerfest ( ) Red Hook Longhammer IPA (Love it) Sam Adams Imperial Stout (Not bad, im still looking for a more flavorful stout) Alexander Keiths IPA (Yes, I'm a maritimer) Dogfish Head India Brown Ale (Have yet to try, loved the 60 and 90 min IPA though) Shiner Bohemian Black Lager (from texas; please reply, what is the point of a Black lager? I barely notice a difference) This is just what I have. Btw Two Hearted is the shit.

Any beers you always keep on deck for easy drinking, guests, or whatever. Because my stuff gets raided from time to time, I try to keep stuff I could find anywhere like Stone IPA, Negra Modelo, Smoked Porter, and something like DBA or Dig from New Belgium. I keep these for myself, but mostly so my good ish isn't abused of by guests/family. I made the mistake of keeping a Victory at Sea in the fridge and a family member popped it open, drank from the bottle, and poured it down the drain because it was "nasty as f*&%"
I always have a supply of Spaten Optimator fro special occassions. Then I usually keep a kep of IPA of some sort. And of course I have to have a supply of Yuengling Dark.
The only beers I buy regularly are weihenstephaner hefe, and more recently Mirror Pond Ale/ some dopplebock.
Black Tuesday, Sam Adams Triple Bock, Chocolate Rain, Pliny (the Younger), Hop Stoopid, Stone IRS, Big Eye IPA, Cantillon Soleil de Minuet, and Gluek Ice.
all the top tier brews I am aging and prefer looking at rather than drinking. makes me feel good about myself lolol
OK lager head here so Spaten Optimator year round and Franziskaner in summer, but also an Abbey Tripel style now and again. Open to any variety pack.
Beers that I keep in the fridge? Ones that have a habit of gushing when I open them at cellar/room temperature.
nola brown stone smoked north coast scrimshaw homebrew pineapple cilantro ipa homebrew brett saison w/ citra dry hop and light toast oak spirals
I go with a great lakes variety pack. I dig all the beers in there and there is a variety for guests.
Sorry. Olivia Wilde and Sara Jean Underwood are coming over for a sleepover and I can't spare the room. I mean, I only have the one translucent sleeping bag for them to share as it is.
Hoegaarden and Corona (yes, I have non-beersnobby neighbors), and at least an IIPA or Saison in there for me
Old Rasputin. Smuttynose Robust Porter. A barleywine (Old Foghorn, Blithering Idiot, Bigfoot) and a wit or hefe for the wife.
