    As much as the guys at one of my local bottle shops hyped this beer up, I expected a lot more, not bad though. Have to admit I am just craving over the top hops lately and this isn't it.

    Yes I have tried it and it is awesome. Does not get enough love on here that is for sure.

    Saw the stack of aprihop cases today, asked the price (about 50$) and decided that old raspy(by the case) is worth 5 mas pesos (USD).

    Hahahaha yeah that definitely isn't it. What are your hop / (D)IPA preferences, if you don't mind me asking?

    Yeah I'm enjoying it. Far less sweet than I was anticipating, considering it's Southern Tier and a milk stout. It's tasty. It's easy-going, which is a nice change when it comes to stouts. Though, Green Flash Double Stout may still be my favorite to date.

    One of the best. Had my first @ Ebenezers from the first keg tapped. In 40 years, my most memorable beer experience.

    Actually just starting getting into the hops and can't get enough. Titan and Hercules were so delicious, liking the DIPA moreso, Bigfoot was awesome too which I know is a Barleywine but had good hops as well.

    Couldn't stand them a few months ago, now craving them and don't want anything sweet at all, Belgians got me into craft beer but now harder to drink. Bring on the bitter. So refreshing.

    I hear all about these great brews that are not available here in OK, like Nugget Nectar, Hopslam, Hoptimum, etc., I want to try them all! F5 is on my list to try as well, any suggestions?

    i'd take old raspy over this too, though it's a tasty beer.

    One of my favorite hoppy brews comes from your neighbor to the north! Tallgrass Oasis reminds me very much of Furious.

    Was thinking about taking the night off, but opted for a Port Old Viscosity instead.

    Hmm . . . Hoptimum is Sierra Nevada, that should be available (soon). Tallgrass has that new 8-bit coming out soon which looks awesome, and Boulevard's Double-Wide is supposed to be good, right? Neither of those are anywhere close to being distributed in NY, so this is just hearsay.

    But, according to http://seekabrew.com/ , you guys also have access to Shelton Bros., so I imagine a good bottle shop in the OKC area would get Shelton Bros. products. Check their website for what they distribute, maybe there's some stuff on there that you'd enjoy.

    I will look for it as I just saw Tallgrass Sweat the other day, so it must be here too, thanks for the suggestion! Looking forward to a local one that is soon to come out in cans: F5 from Coop Ale Works, looks good, could find it on tap if I would get out more!
