From time to time my fridge will get a bit backed up. I have this fear of running out of beer. This coupled with the fact that I have a bad memory has me buying beer often when I already have a bunch at home that I have been meaning to drink. I also have this habit of buying something that is not my normal thing, drinking a few and then deciding that I don't like it or that I am bored with it. Then the extra bottles hang around in the fridge taking up space until I can pass them off on some unsuspecting victim. Right now my fridge is pretty much full up of beer. Below is a list of what's in there and why.Good stuff that will be gone within the week:
6 Sierra Nevada Pale Ales - My go to beer. Can't say enough good stuff about it. That's what I'm drinking right now.
3 Sierra Nevada Torpedo Extra IPAs - Good but a bit tannic.
5 Magner Original Irish Ciders - They belong to the girlfriend. Pretty good, but I am not much of a cider fan
3 Dogfish Head Palo Santo Marrons - Good, but high in alcohol, so they might last longer then a week
3 Otter Creek Oktoberfest - Meh, they might make a jump to the next category.
1 Sierra Nevada 30th Anniversary Black Barleywine - I can not wait to drink this one. Perhaps tomorrow night after my closing shift at work.
1 Coney Island Sword Swallower Steel Hop Lager - A gift from the girlfriend. Can't wait to drink this one. A nice hoppy lager along the lines of Brooklyn Lager
Beers that have been hanging around for a while:
4 Flying Dog Raging Bitches - A Beglian style IPA. Not my thing. Beer store dude convinced me to get it
2 Long Trail Blackberry Wheats - Part of a variety pack. Again, not my thing.
1 Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout - This is from a few years back. It is good, but a bit boozy. I should really drink this
6 Founders Breakfast Stout Clones - Homebrews gone wrong
1 Anchor Steam Liberty Ale Clone - A homebrew success that I was saving for guests. It might have spent too much time in the fridge though.
1 Homebrew UFO - It is in a Grolsh bottle, so no labeling. I'm gonna drink this tomorrow. I hope it is a Boston Lager clone, but I suspect it is an under carbonated porter
That's it. If I put in the effort, I can probably drink the fridge down in under two weeks, except for the Raging Bitch and the Long Trail. No way am I drinking that. But feel free to partake if you are into it.
