You're Welcome.

Looks tasty! :thumb: :fist:

Certainly was not the road most easy to get there.

Evil Genius' "Ma! The Meatloaf! " thankfully does not taste like meatloaf, but it's a good mango-flavored summer beer.

You bite your tongue.

I had it once. It was probably one of the most vile things I have ever tried.

Had an Anderson Valley Boont Barl Bourbon Ale last night. It was an enjoyable beer for the entirety of the bomber, but nothing too outlandish. 7.5/10

I also have some Unibroue Trois Pistoles sitting around waiting to be consumed. Tonight may be a good night to grill with some suds.

Smuttynose IPA. Spotted a sixer while getting coffee this morning at AM/PM. Opinions, anyone? Have to run out the way to get it.

Draft.

Could very well have been a tap issue, but it was one of the worst beers I've ever had. Tasted like Magic Hat skunk.

It's solid. It's brewed in Portsmouth, NH so worth the longer trip :)

I just heard on the radio that 1.5 breweries open in America every day... that seems outrageously high to me. The market will be saturated soon.

I was just commenting on this the other day. We went to the Vineyard at Hershey a few weekends back...they've decided to open up their own fledgling brewery there. We got a flight of eight or so of their offerings......gross, gross, gross. Everything tasted like watered-down grossness.

I guess this is a good thing for craft beer consumers in terms of price? I dunno, it just seems to be over the top at this point.

I wonder if a lot of these "breweries" are just restaurants that make 1 or more of their own beer.

Bought a bottle of Yeti for puzzle night with friends. Have only had the Oak-aged, so looking to see how the original holds up.

Their Piss Disc Double Blond IPA is excellent. Truly a pungent bouquet on the nose; hints of asparagus.

Woof. 35 seemed low to begin with and if that's how the ranking ended up, I feel like they should've done 116 like the IPA list.

Kern River Just Outstanding IPA

Imperial:

honorable mentions because this is really tough: Galactica, Dirtwolf, Blind Pig, Gemini...

where do you draw the line between contemporary and imperial/double? Is it an ABV thing? IBU thing? What's the difference?
