I find Lent to be a good time to test my will and resolve.  This year I chose to do something tough again (last year I was a vegetarian), and gave up drinking soda and beer.  In effect, all carbonated beverages.   It has been a tough go without the diet coke or blue monster to keep me going, but I’m alive, and a better person for it I’d say.  Anyway, I’m trying to come up with a list of beers to try after Lent.  Here’s an updated list I’ve come up with so far:

1. Goose Island Bourbon County Brand Stout (I gave Jeff a bottle, he reviewed it here.)
2. Dogfish Head Palo Santo Marron (Jeff got us both 4-packs yesterday! He should have a review up soon)
3. New Holland Night Tripper
4. This years batch of Founders Devil Dancer
5. Unibroue Quelquechose
6. Mendocino Imperial IPA
7. Lienenkugel Big Eddy Imperial Stout
8. Erie Fallenbock
9. Brooklyn Monster
10. Boulder Obovoid
11. Boulder Mojo Risin
12. Unibroue 17

I’m still hunting for recommendations as well.  I know they’re out there, lemme have ‘em.

Duke, if you’re reading this, you’d better bring me back a bottle of Dark Lord if you go.  Or invite me to come.  Seriously.
