About: My first beer was Budweiser. I was about 9 or 10, Dad and I were broken down and the side of the road and all there was to drink was Budweiser. So I had a swig of his, hated it!
I didn't drink beer again until I joined the Marine Corps. I was in Quantico, attending Small Computer Systems Specialist school, when I accidentally knocked a beer out the fridge and broke it. My buddies said now I gotta drink one! The rest is history. The broken beer was a Red Dog by the way.
Now days I am really a hop head that enjoys the IPAs [Stone IPA; Lagunitas IPA] and Douple IPAs [Moylan's; Hair of the Dog Blue Dot]. I also like Belgians [St Bernardus; Delirium; Three Philosopher's] a lot! I also like the Stouts and Porters [Black Butte] as well.
I enjoy going to breweries to sample as well as going to pubs and taverns. I also like enjoying beer with friends and bouncing ideas off of other intelligent people as well. Last time I was at O'Brien's I was shooting the shit with a couple of random strangers.
I hope to someday do a pub/tavern crawl across Europe. That's all I want. Simple.

Alpine Beer Company Duet
Name: Duet
Brewery: Alpine Beer Company
Overall Rating: Very good!
Style: 14B. American IPA
Serving Style: Bottle 220z
ABV: 7%
If you like IPAs, like I do, you’ll really like this one. The hops and nice and crisp! The ABV isn’t too high, so you might actually be able to enjoy a few more of these. It is a very clear, straw yellow with a beautiful, white, fluffy head. Excellent carbonation and mouthfeel make this a very good IPA to drink. I highly recommend this one as it is a great example of what an IPA is and should be.
