Long Trail Double Bag Appreciation [beer][views:18916][posts:94]___________________________________ [Apr 8,2011 1:17pm - arilliusbm ""] [img] One of the best New England beers? Yep. Outside of Allagash, a few Sam Adams brews, some Pretty Things, etc.. the Double Bag Ale is one of the best beers that's made around here, hands down. 7.2% Alcohol as well, so just a few of these and you're on your way to a nice buzz. Pick these motherfuckers up next time you're buying a beer. :NEWHORNS: /advertisement |

| _________________________________ [Apr 8,2011 1:25pm - brian_dc ""] Good beer. If you're ever in Tortilla Flats in Providence and haven't figured out that it's all shit and you should leave, make sure not to get it there. They have it on tap, but they water it down. |
| _____________________________ [Apr 8,2011 1:26pm - SLAG ""] Not a bad brew, for certain. Possibly the best one Long Trail offers. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 8,2011 1:33pm - arilliusbm ""] this was the official herugrim band practice beer thanks to DYA buying it every day |
| _____________________________ [Apr 8,2011 1:35pm - SLAG ""] this thread needs more slap the bag |
| ______________________________ [Apr 8,2011 1:50pm - Pires ""] Purchased. Also, as much as i love Sam Adams, they get a BIG FUCK YOU for not having their rye ale available in 6 packs. While I like the shit that comes in the variety pack, 2 beers is not enough of that deliciousness. /rant. Resume discussing long trail. |

| __________________________________ [Apr 8,2011 1:59pm - dreadkill ""] i've seen celebrator at stores before and was interested in trying it. |
| _______________________________________ [Apr 8,2011 1:59pm - josh_hates_you ""] it's good but far from the best beer in NE. BBC coffehouse porter FTW |

| ___________________________________ [Apr 8,2011 2:06pm - arilliusbm ""] josh_hates_you said:it's good but far from the best beer in NE. BBC coffehouse porter FTW Agreed. Love that one. I'd still put the Double Bag in my top 15 of new England because of it's price and kick. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 8,2011 4:07pm - Sacreligion ""] A+ thread for encouraging me to currently enjoy this. |
| _________________________________________ [Apr 8,2011 4:10pm - BlessedOffalNLI ""] this is what we were drinking when we got arrested at that midnight show in haverhill. |

Haven't had Double Bag but I'll get some ASAP. |

The Scotch Ale they have in those variety packs tastes like heaven to me. If they had that stuff in a 6-pack, I'd be buying it on a regular basis. True. There are some awesome brews that Sam Adams makes. I think they do sell them in 6 packs, but it's rare. If they don't, that's a shame. I really like the Old Fezziwig Ale as well. I usually always buy a Sam's Mix Pack if it has Scotch/Fezziwig etc in it. I think it's the winter pack, but I could be mistaken. |

| ___________________________________ [Apr 8,2011 4:15pm - arilliusbm ""] Ayinger Celebrator is indeed good. I had that very cup that's in the picture but it broke when I was washing it one day. :'( ...cool story bro. |

| ___________________________________ [Apr 8,2011 4:17pm - arilliusbm ""] the chocolate bock is newer, right? they've only been selling that for a year or two. it was delicious. I wouldn't say it's better than Southern Tier's "Mokah" (nothing is, really) or Young's Double Chocolate Stout, but it was good |

| ______________________________________ [Apr 8,2011 5:10pm - NuclearWinter ""] Double Bag is great, but not a double bock, it's a "Stickebier," like this 8.5% beauty: [img] |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 8,2011 5:11pm - NuclearWinter ""] Oops. Different variety of same brand. Clearly not 8.5%. No idea why that image is so enormous. |

| ______________________________________ [Apr 8,2011 5:13pm - NuclearWinter ""] My friend mention having tried Long Trail's "Triple Bag" at a bar in Vermont, but I've yet to find it in stores. |

But I have yet to get drunk lol. I've become quite the beer snob. It's all about taste for me. I've been going to gasbarros and creating my own 6-pack. A little more expensive, yes, but worth it. I pay $10-$12 for beer I'd never otherwise have. I'd rather throw a beer away (as I did last week with this bullshit called "Yakima glory"...fucking disgusting) then buy a 6-pack and have it suffer the same fate. I've recently enjoyed hooker blonde and heavy seas pale ale. The latter being incredible IMO. |

The one on federal hill? i hate federal hill liquors around the corner but have been avoiding this place cause it seems like just a high end wine joint. |
| ______________________________ [Apr 8,2011 5:47pm - Pires ""] No, in Seekonk. Didn't even know there was one on the hill. Their specialty is "wine" but there's enough beer to satisfy my palate. And it'll take quite sometime to go through all of their choices. It's worth a shot for the store on the hill. At worst, you walk out empty-handed. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 8,2011 5:52pm - arilliusbm ""] lol @ Seekonk. Let's all drink Double Bags and watch some demolition derby at Seekonk speedway, you won't. |
| __________________________________ [Apr 8,2011 7:35pm - dreadkill ""] I used to hang at seekonk speedway when I was a kid and my dad drove stock cars. |
| __________________________________ [Apr 8,2011 7:36pm - dreadkill ""] I just got home from picking up a double bag bomber, a six pack of breckenridge vanilla porter, and a harrow's chicken pie. |
