    Well I tried checking out a review for this, but there are none on this site yet.
    Has anyone tried it? Wondering if it's worth a drive to grab a bottle of it.

    I had it last night and thought it was very good. I ended up buying a bottle of it too. $15 for a bottle.

    Good brew. The ba version on tap is their best beer to date imo.

    I noticed they have another beer in retails stores now: UXO Strong Ale. I picked up a 4 pack of cans last night ($7.99) but haven't tried it yet. So now this is available in addition to the Category 3 IPA. Does anyone know if they plan to put any other of their offerings in stores this year? I would love to see them can Mexican Standoff, but that's probably wishful thinking.

    Did anyone else think Mexican Standoff was a bit off? Me and my tasting partners thought that the peppers were imparting this perfume-y taste that didn't sit right.

    I liked it and did not get a perfume-taste from the peppers. I had it on tap at a bar in Fort Lauderdale about a month ago.

    Thanks to those that came out to the Trench release. Holy shit were we blown away by the turnout and, more importantly, the response. We do still have some bottles of it available in the taproom and it is still on tap. The Palm Ridge Barrel Aged version went quick Saturday.

    Yes we did do a run of UXO cans and they are available at all South Florida Total Wines, some Crowns and other independent shops. We also have it for sale in the taproom. We have something new going into cans this weekend and should be available starting next week. Can't say just yet but it's not Mexican.

    Thanks for mentioning something. We obviously want to know about these things if they arise. I've put a bottle of it in our fridge to try later on and see if we find any off flavors. I'll PM you to let you know what I find out and how we can make this right for you.

    It's coming soon to cans. We haven't done it with the mobile canning company because we didn't have the branding worked out yet. We get our own canning line in March. Hopefully in April you'll start seeing it out there.
