    Overdue Pr0n from @Dave_Treat You and Nick did a incredible job getting these Resolute bottles out so quick. Thanks for the extras. Drank the left hand after a long day of work on friday. Was able to enjoy the Virginia Black Bear with a buddy in the Cincy beer group. Such a bad ass label too. Huge thanks and a token of my appreciation will be sent out soon!

    My wife burned my collection of jorts when we got married. If I need to buy some more I'm sure my wife would love it.

    Agree. Fort is slightly better and may improve with age but that stuff is just terrible IMO.

    I like it a bit more than most, but it is more like vanilla with a little beer added.

    Pipeworks - Killer Queen

    I think I prefer this to the last batch of Sure Bet. Basically it's Square Grouper w/ blueberries. Drank most of the glass while cooking...

    Just a few boxes going out soon...

    Unfortunately these won't be able to ship until Thursday because of my stupid travel schedule. Didn't have the beer to go into a lot of them until Saturday afternoon/evening, so not a lot I could do about it since FedEx and UPS aren't open on Sundays (at least around here, not sure if everywhere is like that).

    Still have about 5-6 more boxes I want to send, though those will probably mostly be smaller.

    IMO 15' is the best base BCS in a long time.

    I actually did a 3 year vert last night, I thought '13 and '14 were both pretty equal with '13 maybe edging out '14 slightly, and both were slightly better than '15, though all were fantastic. I actually liked my pour of '15 from last night much more than the bottle I solo'd on black friday, though they were different ABVs

    Double VCS -- I didn't mean to buy any beer yesterday -- but did a run to return bottles (by the way, my local bottle shop is always good about accepting anything I bring back, most of which is from you guys -- they are always very intrigued by the bottles I bring them). And managed to restrain myself pretty well, but did pick up these two that I figured I'd share...

    this one is from earlier today while I watched my fantasy football team turn to crap...

    It was certainly good, but imo subpar for a Grimm DIPA.

    And I'm drinking this second one now -- they call it a hoppy stout, and it reminds me of a Cascadian ale more than anything else. Pipeworks does a really good job with their artwork, and while I don't think they need it, I'm sure that helps with their sales. This is just an example of their nice cans...

    I love #datglass...

    Maybe we should start providing our pants sizes in addition to shirt sizes for future BIFs
