Grimm Artisanal Ales (September 2016)

WF Chelsea has them now. As of 20 mins ago, seemed to be case and a half to two cases of both. Could see everything though. 1 of each pp.

 

I went to the 7-11 in Flatiron and they didn't have any Grimm, swing and a miss.

 

Both great but yeah team lambo here too

 

Just got 1 can of each at chelsea wf

 

walked over to WF Tribeca... they said Grimm cans will be there at 6pm
However they had a ton of Daisy Cutter and KBS 2 bottles per person.

 

I really love Lambo. The mouthfeel is perfect. It just taste so good. I see on untappd lots of "not as good as last batch" mixed in with the great reviews... I think with the releases so spread out, the memory of how good each previous batch is manifests over time and it becomes so hard to meet expectations. First sip I was almost expecting something different, by sip 4 I had to slow myself down.

 

Beer street in greenpoint has both for onsite and to go, the only place in Brooklyn that doesn't sell out by the time I get off work.

 

So I'm pretty new to dry hopped sours. I have a bottle of Kinetic Cloud and was wondering how long it'll take to drop off. Any opinions?

 

Cracked a Pulse Wave. Pine blast! Bitter? Yes. But still oh so soft, complex & delicate. Overall, a nice change of pace from Joe & Lauren. These two never disappoint. As it warms, notes of Strawberry really start to come out. This very is a good beer.

 

Not anymore.

 

Dare we ask where?

 

That is awesome. Consider me jealous of your shelfies

 

palettes' are a changin

 

As great as this is, what is a grocery store like this doing with Grimm cans?

 

After careful deliberation, my verdict is in:

Lambo Door>>>Pulse Wave

Lambo is just way more balanced. Dangerously balanced, really. I'm having to check myself as I drink this because it's going down so smooth. Pulse Wave is alright, but it has an off-putting bitterness and the booze is very much present. Not picking up any booze at all on the Lambo. Just straight fruit juice with a bit of bready malt on the back end.

Either way, great can release. Also looking forward to cracking open a bottle of Present Perfect within the next few days.

 

I think it's great Grimm makes it to places outside bottle shops and whole foods. I found my first Grimm bottle in a local grocery store. Most of these places do a pretty good job with their beer selection which is why they stock it. A lot of people in the city just shop for beer in delis, bodegas, and grocery stores.

 

I probably still prefer Lambo to the two, but I like pulse wave a lot more than I thought I would. Not usually crazy about too much bitterness, but it's so smooth at the same time. Definitely a uniquely Grimm quality to it.

Very stoked to try Splish next week. This has been a real killer run of beers so far this month

 

Because they received 2 kegs and tapped one right away and saved the other for a special event later. I posted what was on tap in an attempt to help people find beer they want, not for idiotic judgements, if you don't want people on this forum informing each other when/where Grimm is on tap than what the hell is it for?

 

Love me some Other Ephemera.

 

Ah yes, I remember talking to you awhile back and I think we live in the same hood. If I'm thinking of the same grocery. I was under the assumption that they haven't been getting Grimm since I haven't seen any since Tesseract but I will have to start checking with them again.
