    Quick OT question but do any of you assholes out there have a Champion Ground from Jackie O's you'd be willing to part with? PM me to work something out.

    Throw some chilies, cinnamon, cocoa nibs, and vanilla beans in for good measure.

    Is this different from the "hoppy sour" that was in the works, or did it just come out more hoppy than sour?

    Probably my favorite beer i ever had from hitchhiker was the casked berliner, dry-hopped w iirc apollo. It wasn't bitter at all, just added a nice floral aroma that played perfectly w the tartness. Not dissimilar to a nice dry-hopped tart saison.

    Would you say this sour IPA is "shit-your-pants good"?

    I bet that was a photo-finish. Such a gamble.

    Mexican Coffee was the first ever BG beer I had. Bought it at HO1K on a trip up here when I still lived in FL. Really liked it so I am pretty pumped to see it around again.

    ISO: BA Mexican Coffee

    I am a big fan of Hardywood, but if this is the only thing they are pouring, I would say is a poor representation of what they do. There are so many other beers that they make that are way better than Bourbon Cru

    I've had a few from them but it has been a little spotty, that is why I am curious about the Bourbon Cru.

    I've had:
    Sidamo Coffee (which I enjoyed the Ethiopian coffee they used)
    BB Sidamo Coffee (this was really weak)
    Cream Ale
    Capital Trail Pale
    Saison Rustica
    Rum Pumpkin
