Infernal Stronghold (Philly blackened thrash punks)
Rampant Decay (Providence crossover piledriver)
Sandworm (Mayhem covering The Ramones)
Holy Night (Killing Joke played through a HC filter)
I had to leave this pretty much right as Holy Night started and only got to pop in briefly to catch a single Rampant Decay song while driving around downtown. Fuck work.
I got to this as infernal stronghold was halfway through their set. So I'll give the best review I can.
Founders Red Rye PA - Didn't realize $5 only gets a 10 oz snifter glass. Pretty weak imho since its only 6.6% and not terribly expensive or a limited release. It is excellent beer though. Got a 98 on beer advocate.com. It tastes much hoppier than the 70 ibu suggests.
Green Flash IPA - At $6.50 for a pint, no one said that good beer was cheap. Fuck off pbr/gansett drinkers. Little fruitier, less hoppy and easier to drink than the red rye. Not sure why they put which beer in which glass but I'm glad that this came in a full pint.
Founders Breakfast Stout - Holy fuck. I had read about this beer and wanted to try it but just never saw it around. It's a double chocolate, coffee and oatmeal stout. 8.3%. $9.99 for a 4 pack. Easily worth it. This beer has officially replaced both youngs double chocolate and bbc coffeehouse porter as my new favorite coffee and or chocolate stout/porter. This also got 100 on beer advocate. Hands down one of the best beers I have had recently. Highly recommended.
that review is pretty dead on. Except you left out the part when I asked the lead singer what he was drinking and he couldn't remember. He just knew that they offered a lime - and who would say no to a lime on the beer glass? That's "Claaaassy"
