Maybe it was the orange to chocolate order, but I did enjoy the bock.<br /><br />another comment on imbibe, the help was under the impression that the tasting Friday is West Coast, and they had a flyer/copy sheet that showed West Coast but they already have that on tap so maybe they were misinformed.<br /><br />If you are going to imbibe on Friday just be prepared for West Coast not Imperial.corrwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01265647952647011150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9216941468016838523.post-34711280148687864442012-05-17T20:26:44.302-06:002012-05-17T20:26:44.302-06:00First of all shame on me b/c i didn't check yo...First of all shame on me b/c i didn't check your site everyday. You've translated the vague mish-mash from the ABQ beer week website clearly. thank you. Day 1 was a wash for me. Yes i drank good beer but that was at Zerbe's Tap Room- a Monks Cafe Flemish Sour Ale which was okay and ending at home with a Firestone Walker Double Jack- thx Maj. <br /><br />But the big decision was Chocolate Bock from Sam or DIFF from Ska. So we go to Imbibe for DIFF and they don't have it! but they have an orange Creamcicle Stout from SKA- basically a stout with orange peel- 5.5%. Totally lame and disgraceful.<br /><br />So I am angry and feel disrespected. Who to blame? I don't know but I do know redemption is just a day away.<br /><br />happy drinking.michael jamisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18323817736671215451noreply@blogger.com
