Yes, I like the Lagunitas 13 A LOT. Very fresh. Seems like what an ESB should be.
Visited the Rogue brewery in Newport, OR recently. Their fresh hop beer was good, but not up to the standards set by Deschutes, Sierra Nevada and others. It's pretty hard to beat the Shakespeare Stout, though.

I haven't kept up with this thread so I have no idea if this has been mentioned, but if you are a fan of pumpkin beers give Southern Tier Pumpking a try. It's about $7 for a 22oz bottle, but it might just be the best pumpkin beer I've ever had. Strong too, at 9-10% alcohol.

I just saw the trailer for the Beer Wars movie and added it to my netflix queue.
I'll make sure to have a nice selection in the house when it arrives. ![]() Beer viewing party, anyone?

I'm still working on the RFC for the BoIP (Beer over IP) protocol. I'll get back to you when I'm ready for beta testers.
