OMO,
I highly recommend 'Back Woods Bastard', which is basically a bourbon barrel aged 'Dirty Bastard'. Excellent beer, highly sought after.
People either love or hate the 'Devil Dancer', there seems to be no in between. Somehow the hops they use give it an 'oniony' flavor that some people hate. I like to age my Deil Dancer for several years, it gains more of a Barleywine flavor.
Other recommendations for Founders... their KBS (Kentucky Breakfast Stout) and CBS (Canadian Breakfast Stout). Both very hard to get. Look for the KBS on 'Black Friday.'

One of my buddy’s had to memorize this to get into his frat, along with a bunch of other stupid Shyte.

I have been very remiss in not reporting back on the last two beers that Scotty sent me.
The third beer that I tried was Heady Topper by the Alchemist from Stowe Vermont. Scotty says this one was once rated the top beer in the world but that was overhype. I’m no beer connoisseur but have to agree. It was a good, pleasant beer, one that I’d consider a ‘house’ beer, very nice but not the best I’ve ever had. I did enjoy it and would definitely drink it again. Uncharacteristically, I did not take a photo.
The last beer was Double Dry Hopped Melcher Street by Trillium Brewery... a true, New England-style IPA. Honestly, I saved it for last because I was prepared to not like it based on the name. I don’t like very bitter beer and it sounded bitter. Was I in for a surprise. I thought it was delicious and hoppy without the overpowering bitterness that I dislike. My son-in-Law has also tried this beer and his comment was disparaging about why brewers feel the need to load up a beer with hops and think that’s going to make it tasty. I don’t know about all that, I thought it was very good.
Scotty has spoiled IPA’s for me now that I’ve tried the good ones. No wonder I’ve not been a fan, the ones I’ve tried were bitter with no balance. I’m definitely now an IPA fan but will be more discerning in my future purchases.
Thanks again Scotty!
I have a Ballast Point IPA in the fridge that is calling my name...Lost in the right direction. -

As most of the forum folks may know, CO, KS, and OK recently changed laws allowing higher alcohol content beers to be sold in grocery/convenience stores. Previously such beers were only sold in specific stores. Therefore UT and MN are the remaining states prohibiting sale of high alcohol content outside of state or private liquor stores.
Therefore demand for 3.2 beer most likely will decrease resulting in decreased production. Anheuser-Busch has announced a reduction of beer varieties is in the works for Utah unless the legislature changes alcohol laws. Currently such legislation is not under discussion.
However a likely benefit to this trend is local microbreweries will have an opportunity to expand market share as they fill this product niche.

i had a blueberry sour ale with dinner. never had a sour beer before and never had blueberries in my beer either so it was a new experience for me.
the nashville chicken (first time for that too) sandwich was fantastic, but wasn't nearly as hot as i thot it would be. the fries were thru-hiker portion sized, but since i'm not a thru-hiker i left about half of em behind.2,000 miler -

For an introduction to what a very slightly sour fruity beer can be, I recommend the New Glarus brewery. I can't get their beers in New England, but I have them shipped to me because there is no-one who masters this style like they do.“Of all sad words of tongue or pen,

Recently, I tried New Belgium Hemperor. It’s brewed with hemp seeds and is supposed to taste like “cannabis terpenes”. I don’t know what terpenes are but it was very tasty. It sounds gimmicky, and maybe it is, but I will definitely drink it again.
Anyone else tried it?Lost in the right direction. -
