    You're talking about the Red IPA in the Beer Camp pack this year. That's the derivative of Beer Camp #95: Bloodshot, with the ABV knocked-down a bit.
    Flipside is an entirely new creation that's been in the works since January. Much lighter-bodied than the Beer Camp version with more fruit-forward hop presence.

    Sierra Nevada does indeed make a number of high quality “perfectly balanced” beers. I would describe a number of Anchor beers that way as well.

    Cheers to Sierra Nevada, Anchor & BA raynmoon!

    My personal problem with tumbler is the time in which it is released. The roasted/nutty flavors and light body go great with fall but its released the hottest time of the year on the west coast. August and September are too hot for tumbler. If this was released in October it would be much better.

    On a side note I am a fan of tumbler. i usually buy it and keep it around until the weather starts to cool.

    This needs to get to KY soon. This combined with the return of football (both college and NFL) makes me one happy guy.

    I talked to the Sales Reps for the entire Southest yesterday. They said Tiumbler is indeed being replaced by Flipside. I also got a bottle to take home. Guess what? It's fucking delicious! They may have also thrown in a
    Narwahl for fun:wink:
