Beers To Try Before you Die or the Beer Bucket 52 List 49 of 52 Bourbon Barrel Aged Arrogant Bastard

If you thought you were not worthy when it came to the Original Arrogant Bastard, then you can just bow now to that great flavor aged in Bourbon barrels. What a Flavor
and Hell I can say the same for  Sublimely Self Righteous Black IPA (which I can not believe was discontinued...Bastards!!!)

  It is a toss up between this one, RuinTen Triple IPA or Self Righteous Bastard Black IPA
as far as which is my Favorite Stone Brewing concoction. So this is going to be a two for one (since RuinTen has it's own post already, and I know I know this would technically make this 53 beers when it is done but I don't care it's my blog I can do what I want. And the fact that the  Sublimely Self Righteous Black IPA  is really no longer available but I was too damn lazy to post earlier...Well you get it)

First let's go over the Bourbon Barrel Aged Arrogant Bastard, What can I say that I have not above. it is all the goodness of an Arrogant Bastard that has been aged in those wonderful Bourbon Barrels. 

And If you can by chance get your hands on a Sublimely Self Righteous Black IPA  
it is so good. 
A sweet rich stout like taste but with all the goodness that come from Stone in their Bastard series of beers.


Both these beers are tops in my eyes as I throw out a 6 pack for each one. 


You may not be able to find  Sublimely Self Righteous Black IPA  anymore but grab some Bourbon Barrel aged Arrogant Bastard   You will be happy.

Beers To Try Before you Die or the Beer Bucket 52 List 48 of 52 Urban Chestnut Fantasyland Midwest coast IPA

As I round up the rest of my IPAs from over the summer months I have to mention Urban Chestnuts Fantasyland Midwest coast IPA
Yes you read that right Midwest coast. Where is that? Well it is in St Louis and as far as it saying midwest coast, it also says Fantasyland..so you get it. It is technically a "West Coast Style" IPA, but When I think Urban Chestnut I think St Louis so I will call it a St Louis Style (or MidWest Coast Style) IPA a great summer drink not too heavy but full of flavor.


As You can see I was enjoying a bottle while I watched some MMA a perfect beer for doing just that. Relaxing with some friends and watching sports.

I am going to give this bad boy a good 5 beer rating. 

I have had IPAs I enjoyed more, but this one I enjoyed a lot at that time.

Beers To Try Before you Die or the Beer Bucket 52 List 47 of 52 Arrogant Bastard from Stone Brewing

You're not worthy...You really are not. Arrogant Bastard Ale from Stone Brewing is an old stand by beer whenever you can't find something that tickles your fancy. An excellent Ale, that will not disappoint.


Although Stone makes some Brews that are even better this is the base beer as far as I am concerned and as I stated above it is go to when you can't decide on something else or you are just not being as adventurous with your drinking time this weekend as you were last week. 

So I am going to go ahead and give this good old boy a 5 beer rating, 


just enough wiggle room for something like Bourbon Barrel aged Arrogant Bastard  (can you guess the next Beer you should try?) 

Or their super special RuinTen Triple IPA


I can without a doubt recommend all three of the above beers
