lol.  what do you want a picture of?

If I can get my brother to pull out all of his beers in his beer cellar I'll post a picture of that.

But -- if you have ever heard of any great beer, especially in the US, chances are either I've had it or we have it in the cellar.

I love Weihenstephaner Hefe Weiss, ever have that?  They claim to be the oldest brewery in the world (1040).  But being German, i'm sure there is a lot of rules of what is considered a brewery =)

Haven t had it for a while, maybe I should order some =)

I have a around a six pack in my fridge, Geo. A friend of mine brought some over - she was also a military brat that lived in Das Vaterland.

It was indeed tasty. Any beer that has a Hunter S Thompson quote on it deserves to be consumed.

   A little hoppier than I expected, and the chocolate malt flavor is not as enhanced. Overall a drinkable porter. Not one of my recent favorites but nonetheless a good beer.

IBU: 32
ABV: 5.8%

The local Wegman's has been pushing this Northern Virginia brewed beer pretty heavily. I was skeptical at first. Brewed with "raw wheat and oats, and steeped with coriander, orange peel and grains of paradise", this Belgian style beer is very drinkable. The spices are not overpowering in either nose or palate, and at 5% ABV, the beer is not too heavy for summertime drinking in the Old Dominion heat and humidity.

Deep amber, not as intensely hoppy as many American craft IPAs, slight piney flavor on the tongue. Standard ABV for an IPA at 7.1%.
