My First 4WD Experience with my '16 T4RTE - NOT GOOD

Just want to say that Ballast Point Sculpin wins in my book and I like where this thread progressed to and not really where it started.

Yep. Pretty sure IPA was initially a mistake in a batch that some marketing genius figured out how to sell. Just waiting for someone besides me to stand up and say "This beer tastes like bitter crap!" Just my opinion lol. I've had your beer and it was good!
 
Yes, kind of like the Irish Coffee of Beer!

If you fellas want to talk coffee and beer you want to try Sante Fe brewing companies Imperial Java Stout. Talk about unique and yummy... And I don't even like most coffee beers.

If you don't like IPA's because of the bitterness, then you really wouldn't like the Abita Grapefruit IPA.
 
Yes but what beer would you recommend while he studies his manual?

:pop2:

Why Nail Brewing's Antarctic Nail Ale. I have one of 30 500 ml made I'll sell for $1500.

Just kidding of course. I don't pay more than $12 a 12 pack for something I am going to piss out an hour later. :-)

You don't buy beer. You rent it.
 
Sculpin is by far one of my favorite US beers. Have a neighbor at the GF's cottage that's from Boston and we always bring brews to trade. Now that's NAFTA at work.

Right now, especially digging:

Naughty Neighbor APA (Nickel Brook Brewery)
Red Racer IPA (Central City Brewers)

Side note, anyone know how many brews you can bring into the states tax free as a foreigner?
 
Sometimes I have to be quite forceful with the 4wd shiftier. Occasionally it grinds or tries to stick. More force and it quits *****ing. Also If I try to select 4hi or low slowly it will grind and not go in. Quickly moving the lever in and out of 4wd helps for me. This was absolutely not an option on my old jeep. Any quick or forceful actions lead to possible explosions. The thing to remember is that its a very over built machine and you have 500 miles on the transfer case, so it's not broken in at all. The more you use it the better it gets. Oh and nothing about any of the traction control aids will in any way "lock" you into 4wd. They are simply controlling how the brakes react to wheel slippage.
 
Hahaha.... This thread turned out just how I wanted....I've been enjoying Stiegl Radler as its starting to become spring here so it's pretty refreshing.

FrontRange, can we try to keep this on topic?

IPAs give you moobs.

I'm more of a Hefeweisen guy but I don't have a very refined palate. I'm definitely trying some of the above mentions though. It was a New Years resolution to drink more and care less. I fail even at the easy ones somehow. I am drinking Shiner White Wing tonight though. Such an easy beer to drink. :D Great thread, OP. Thanks for starting it.

I apologize. I prefer cheap ass piss water or stouts. IPA's make me want to vomit. Things that taste good to me include juice or Koolaid. Truth is, I like beer because I can get drunk and not be hung over. It would appear that I have no palate, unless were talking about apple cider, cause that shit is good.

This is delicious, my brother in law brought some when they came to visit a couple of weeks ago, he lives in Gallup.
 
IPA Sierra Nevada. Regular or Torpedo are the best. We don't have it up here :( sadly. Check out Trou du diable | Microbrasserie et broue pub craft beer from Shawinnigan. WTH am I doing its 7AM at work atm and I am talking about beer.....

Sierra had a seasonnal, I forgot the name but it was Rye IPA it was really good also.

I like the direction this thread has taken. Keep the recommendations coming. BevMo this weekend!!!

In the Bay Area, look for anything from Altamont Brewery, it's a little hole in the wall in Livermore, but makes some good brews (sometimes you can find it in stores but may have to take a growler out there).

For those of you who like light/fruity or just a good refreshing summer beer, 21st Admendment's Hell or High Watermelon (My personal favorite after a nice long MTB ride).
