And only 5 bucks! What a deal!!

Cheers!

 

Interestingly enough the ONLY beer (so far) that I prefer to drink directly from the can (or bottle) is Anderson Valley Gose. I like it out of a glass too of course but for some reason I find it to be best right out of the can So far the two Kirsch Gose's ive had were in a glass, so I will have to experiment tonight. I wonder what the verdict on Jammer will be. Either way I may need that can glass.

 

I just placed my order for my glassware.
Now I have to wait for Jammer to hit NJ and find more Abigale to fill my new chalice with.

 

Hopefully I can get my friend who lives in NYC to mail me some. Fingers crossed.

 

The can glass is a twofer! Its like drinking from a can and a glass!!

Cheers!

 

Smart man! Ordering in 'bulk' helps to 'defray' shipping costs.

FWIW, I am of the opinion that the can shaped glass actually benefits certain beer styles. I personally drink beers like moderately hopped ales (e.g., Sweet Action), Stouts, Porters, ... from my can shaped glass. I have no scientific explanation for this but my guess is that the slight inward slanting top accentuates certain flavors/aromas.

You will have to report back your impressions for the sweet looking Sixpoint can shaped glass for the beers you drink.

Cheers!

 

Couldn't resist that Jammer class!!! I'm so excited for this beer.

 

The best bottle shop I know in my neck of the woods is expecting this on Monday, so I'll give it a whirl shortly after!

I tried the Victory Kirsch in the meantime, and I find myself agreeing with the others who found it a little lacking - the emphasis was on tartness, with not much salinity. I'm a fan of the Anderson Valley goses, and I'm looking forward to this one.

 

@BeerVikingSailor @JackHorzempa

I'd say the emphasis on this beer is not on the sour or the salt or the spice - but rather all three. Also, as we mentioned before, we wanted to beer to look beautiful because drinking a great Gose style in the right glassware is a sensational delight!

Don't expect a sour bomb, or a spice bomb, or a salt bomb - but rather a balanced, tart, properly spiced and deliciously salted beer that is endlessly crushable.

"It smell like being at the beach"

Actual quote from a staff member who tried it for the first time at this morning's tasting at our wholesaler!

Holy Moley! That is definitely a trademark infringement that Kramer may go after!!

Cheers!
