    Just got a growler of this. Fantastic. I keep wanting to smell the glass even when it's empty.

    I tried a sample of this and it was great and and all, but for $17 a growler and $10.99 a bomber in my area, im expecting a little more.... Actually, now that i think about it, i shouldve gone with the growler lol

    Bonehead is phenomenal. I live a few minutes from their Saloon in Pittsburgh and i consider myself lucky(:

    Enjoyed this. Glad to easily find a second before it disappears from the shelves. Not good enough to be exclusive, but good enough to look forward to the next release next year.

    I really liked this beer a lot. As well as a beer geek, I am also a "cork dork", and any bottle of wine this good at $9.99 is a steal!

    I have a feeling this one is going to sit on shelves for a while since it's not BBA...fine with me, I could drink this all day. Not as "dank" as one would think, it's just a really easy to drink red IPA that doesn't taste like 9.5% ABV.

    Drinking one right now and I must say it is excellent! Saw one in a fridge at local shop, love it. One of better IPAs I've had in past few months.

    So lemme get all this straight...delicious red ipa...whining about package format and price point...whining about release series... Beeradvocate people, not Packageformatpricepointreleaseseriesadvocate. Look at how spoiled we have all become. I'm unfortunately no better, and earning a modest income I have to make choices. I held this bottle ($11.99) and a six pack of Schlafly TIPA ($12.99) and as badly as I wanted to buy this I bought the TIPA.

    It was good, but not something I'd order again. It seemed pretty ordinary to me.

    I'd buy bonehead red over redankulous even if they were packaged in equal price per oz format. (I am not trying to blind hate on Founders).

    If you taste this expecting a super hoppy Imperial Red you'll be very pleased. If you taste it expecting a Bourbon Maple Barrel Coffee Chocolate Imperial Stout, you'll be disappointed.

    I have not tried this yet, but it must be "ok" since it won Gold in the Imperial Red Ale category at GABF

    Apparently someone had something to say on the topic. Kinda the whole idea behind the site.

    Can get a case of 12 bombers for $120, but that is a lot of money and beer? Would the Hop profile make it into winter?
