Heading to Washington DC from Thurs to Sun, the guys over at ratebeer have organised a tasting while I am there <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="www.ratebeer.com/events-detail.asp?eventID=6272">www.ratebeer.com/events-detail.asp?eventID=6272 and then to the Brickskeller afterwards check out the beer list www.lovethebeer.com/beer-list.html">www.lovethebeer.com/beer-list.html

Anyhow, the beers some of the guys are taking to the tasting (and some for me to take home) are:

Alesmith Impy Evil Dead Red/Decadence 2006
Weyerbacher 12
Glazen Toren’s Cuvee Angelique
Dogwood Winter 2001
New Glarus Unplugged Bourbon Barrel Bock
Troegs Nugget Nectar
Lagunitas Kill Ugly Radio
22oz Hoppin Frog Mean Manalishi
22oz Founders Deca
12oz Back Road Scottish Ale
Oceanside American Strong Ale
Avery Mephistopheles
Duck Rabbit Imperial Stout
Defiant Brewing - Flemish Sour Cherry
Southern Tier - Big Red


So, hopefully I will be taking some of these back with me so count me in if there is a tasting soon somewhere

Seems I will have one hell of a night in store all the same!! Anyone interested in anything on the list in particular? HapyAcid you have first dibs!

Sounds like a good time-have fun and enjoy. Are you bringing some beers along to trade in return?

I had the Founders Deca at the 10th anniversary party at the brewery as it is my hometown-it wasnt really to my liking but I am not really a barley wine guy. Hopefully it got better as it has aged and I am sure that it will get better if you can cellar it.

you are a lucky man, i do hope you have a great time over there! I have tried Weyerbacher Double Simcoe IPA, nothing i can say can do i justice, get yourself one when you are there buddy!

oh man, we want pic's of the event

I'd rather the beers, unless you can get some scratch and sniff pics (of the beer!!!). <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->
