    I enjoyed them but i am not much of an ipa guy. Probably going to look into trading the ipa away soon. Overall, east end and voodoo did a great job and I had a lot of fun

    Wasn't at the release, but have all 4 coming. 'Looking forward to trying them. Had a 2nd IPA on the way but once the guy realized how much he liked it, he did not want to trade it. Such is life in the beer trading world, I guess.

    Thought i was gonna miiss out on tasting them all on draft since I was going to Huna Day. I was very surprised to see they were all still on tap in homestead last night when I picked up my bottles! So obviously I had to taste them all. The IPA was insanely good. Much better than I expected. My favorite ( surprisingly) was Old Jive Turkey. It was fantastic. Haven't been able to lock down a trade yet. It seems like people are waiting to see the market. But I agree, they better hurry up if they want to taste the Bourmuda Triangle IPA is all its glory!

    They distribute to NJ once in a while too. Mostly Hoodoo, Love child and pilzilla. Our distributor is really close to PA (they have their old location listed on the map which was basically in Easton) so it just looks like they don't distribute here.

    The IPA was awesome. There was just a little more tequila in it than I'd care to be but that's just me being over sensitive to tequila.

    The Old Ale was exceptional. I loved it.

    The Wheatwine was different for sure. It was a sipper. Big tequila presence.

    Can't say I remember the Brown but I know I only had a sip of it so it's hard to get a good gauge off a sip. Enjoyed it as I recalled though.

    Had the Blackbeard's Delight on cask (the Brown Ale) and was my second favorite after the IPA. The Rum came thru heavy at first but mellowed into more of the coconut as you drank it, I thought.

    I've seen several sets up FT and people trading individual bottles as well. I did pre-trades for my Blackbeard's and Bourmuda bottles. Shipping the Bourmuda today and traded the other IP on Saturday.

    Old Jive and Bourmuda were my top 2 for sure! Close behind the Taco flavored and Blackbeard's. They are all awesome though!

    Haha thanks, but if I like it that much, I might be sad that I am not getting the second one that was agreed upon.

    You probably won't like it that much, it's not from OHIO. But really it's amazing.

    There ya go again putting words in my mouth. Not sure what Ohio has to do with this, but oh well. Glad I landed these fairly easily.

    I continue to find it funny that you're butthurt that I like Ohio's best IPA's better than Good Vibes. Sorry. Didn't think it was anything special. If it was from Ohio, Id feel the same, much like there are plenty of Ohio IPA's that I think are overhyped.

    Haha @tommyguz and I like to troll each other relentlessly. Sometimes we both get butthurt...but it's all in good fun...I think...well, only in good fun if I say the Voodoo Barrel Room beers are the best beers ever made...

    I wish you 2 clowns would just kiss and be done with it. Every time I see this thread get bumped back up I get excited thinking there is news for the next release...or, since noone liked the beers they are getting rid if it all via discounted growler fills and raffling kegs away.

    It has already been mentioned numerous times but that triangle ipa was really something else. I dont even enjoy tequilla and thought that might be (or tied for) my favorite of the new releases. I was so hung up on drinking glass after glass of grande negro voodoo papi that I didnt bother trying 3 of the things I wanted to on tap.

    My only regret of the release is that I couldnt utilize mule whispering skills to secure multiple allotments of the bottles to share with everyone who asked me to get them some.

    I liked em ok, but definitely traded both of my sets. Kinda glad I traded them pre-release too before people started discussing how they were. It was a gamble, but think it worked favorably. I think they'll definitely be going stouts next time. It's fun to try new things, but I'm sure they appreciate more hype around their release than this time as well. Allotments were still available for 2 weeks. I bet anything black magick would be lucky to make it through the weekend

    The Bormuda was awesome at least compared to my tempered expectations and I am not a fan of tequila aged beers. There was an awesome sweetness and a deep fruit flavor that shone through the beer.
