SkydivingNurse 0 #1 April 28, 2005 So strong, so tasty What people are saying After a long night of work and more than my fair share of concern that one of my patients might have TB, this beer really makes me happy. 21% Alcohol. Yes, 21. 42 proof beer. It's not just a strong beer, it's a supremely well crafted IPA. Plenty of bitterness from the loads of hops they use. Understated malts. The hops are so prevalent they actually make this beer taste sticky and sweet and bitter all at the same time. I really needed this after the night I had.

ScottishJohn 25 #2 April 28, 2005 I thought IPA (India Pale Ale) was supposed to be a weak beer not 21% proof.---------------------------------------------------------------------- If you think my attitude stinks you should smell my fingers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkydivingNurse 0 #3 April 28, 2005 Dude, I totally agree with you. Last time I drank that stuff, I ended up talking to myself Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkydivingNurse 0 #4 April 28, 2005 India pale ales were originally developed to survive the trip from England to India~hence the name. They are usually aggressively hopped and higher in alcohol content to prevent spoilage. American Double IPA's take it to the next level, because there are a lot of people in this world who are dedicated hop heads. This is a frighteningly good example, and Stone also makes some killer hoppy beers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigorangemd 0 #5 April 28, 2005 I've had MANY nights like that. By the end of every shift just when I'm aout to say to the next patient "Look here you stupid Mother F@#%$*!" Mr. Bud and Mr. Wiser can help sooth the nerves. Off the point I had a friend growing up who's dad was a surgeon. Their Last name was Wiser and he was called Buddy. He actually was Dr. Bud Wiser!
