Drink of choice tonight for the trilogy and Tiger victory...

I'm happy to say that is the first time I have been home for the playoffs. Each of the last 2 playoffs I have been overseas for work and not able to drink. That being said, I am excited to watch the game at a normal time and have some drinks while doing so.
My drink of choice tonight is beer and is from a small brewery here in Northern Virginia, Aslin. Aslin makes awesome beer across the board but are known for their New England style IPas. I have several that I will be choosing from and they are listed below with a brief description.
Progedy - imperial porter with coffee and vanilla. 9.6% abv.
Neutrino- Double dry hopped ipa. 6.2% abv.
You call that a knife - double ipa. 8.3% abv.
Master of oranges - double ipa. 8.4% abv.
Astro Zombie - ipa. 6.7% abv.
Unicorn Vomit - triple ipa with watermelon. 12.8% abv.
And the victory beer is a Russian imperial stout called machismo from another local brewery, Crooked Run. Machismo is an imperial stout aged in bourbon barrels and is 12% abv.
So excited to be able to watch the Tigers in the playoffs this year from home! And I'll be going to ATL after we win tonight!!
GO TIGERS!!

I have a hodgepodge of Beers from Christmas... Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale, Stone Vertical Epic 02-02-02, and Knee Deep Broken Dishes IPA. The stone is my favorite, Belgian Strong ale and I love Belgian beers.
If needed, Makers and ginger as backup...
Go Tigers!

Tap room early this year and I am stoked. Right now it's only cans to go.
Other Half is great too. I visited their tap room on a locals recommendation just a few weeks back while in NYC. Great beer. And great choices for you. Enjoy!

I was fortunate enough to send myself a care package from Massachusetts last week. Was back home for Christmas, so I sent out a mixed case of good beer:
Trillium Upper Case Double IPA
Nightshift Brewing The 87 Double IPA
Trillium Fort Point Pale Ale
Nightshift Retro Fitter Brown Ale
Alchemist Heady Topper
Nightshift Awake Porter Aged with Coffee
Nightshift Swell IPA
Nightshift Annie Oatley Pale Ale brewed with Oats
And a pic
