Beer Bums Meeting – December 2015 - Beer Bums Christmas Spectacular

The Bums Annual Holiday party!  Once again great beers, great food and great people.  A long list of excellent beers and then some.  I left early so missed out on a few big ones, but as you can see below I didn’t miss much.  There were a lot of big beers and variety this year and the (512) Brewing Wild Bear was a treat for me.  The Indra Kunindra and 24 Carrot Golden Ale taking the titles for most unique.

Beer Bums Meeting – October 2014 – Pumpkin Beers

We decided to jump on the bandwagon and have a Pumpkin Beer theme for October.  It seems every year there are more and more pumpkin beers in the market.  Most are are brewed with pumpkin and pumpkin pie like spices.  While I liked all of the beers, I think I have come to the conclusion that I am not a huge fan of pumpkin beers.  Give me a good Oktoberfest during the same season and I will be happier.

Beer Bums Meeting – July 2012 – 49 & 50 Beers

49 & 50 beers, or Beers from Hawaii and Alaska.  We ended up with beers from either Alaskan Brewing or Kona Brewing although there are a few others available from those two states.  The stand out for me was the Kona Koko Brown which is a brown ale brewed with toasted coconut.  Tasty.  Again, there were no stinkers in the bunch.
