beer tasting

because the phillips 10th anniversary imperial ipa was 3l and 10% big
we decided that we needed a group to drink it
and what better excuse to get together with a couple of buddies than watching a bc lions game on tv?

stacey, bridget, ryan and i spent saturday afternoon polishing off the 10th anniversary beer
and several other potent brews
is that what they mean by a lost afternoon???

look how proud we are of our magnum of beer!


we had some trouble getting the darned cork out
but once we macguyver'd through that little issue, we motored right on through that beer
first sip made me feel warm inside - thank you 10% abv!
i don't understand why the reviews are so mixed - i found nothing there to hate on
it's not in my top ten ipas of all time, but i very much enjoyed it
nice hop to malt ratio, while the alcohol warmed me inside (and got me giggly), it was not overwhelming, a perfectly delightful imperial ipa
and the time-line on the bottle of phillips brewing over the past 10 years was pretty darned funny!

all in all, it went down awfully easily!
