    As long as its closer to Belgian Red/Enigma than Crapple Ale Or Crap-Bic, I'll be happy. No more funny aftertastes! Bring back the Berliner!

    EDIT:
    Apple ale has a distinct miller lite/macro lager-flavor after taste
    Cran-bic's finish was unenjoyably funky for me

    This is true, and nobody ever mentions this. However, I actually like it. It's what reminds me that I'm drinking a beer and not a Woodchuck Cider.

    I know we expecting a shipment within the next 2 weeks. I know I'll be buying and trying it the first day.

    ISO: Marquette peeps (or just someone in WI, sigh :slight_smile:) to hook up another Wisconsin locals trade (including this new NG beer). My faves are NG, Tyranena & Central Waters.

    FT: Bruery and/or FiftyFifty. You guys know you want some Black Tuesday, Eclipse, Melange #3, Oude Tart etc. . .

    Especially because the Apple and Cranbic are two of their best.

    I agree. They should really just leave the cherries out and call it Crapbic.

    It's funny. I'm looking forward to Serendipity about as much as Wisconsin Belgian Red is my all-time favorite/highest reviewed beer.

    Would Crapple Ale not leave enough to the imagination? In all honesty I'm really pumped to try Serendipity

    I just saw a NG Bock at the Copps grocery store. Anyone know what it is? I believe it was called WI Bock. I should have looked closer.

    Our NG distributor said that the bock was the next seasonal after the Staghorn. Just released I believe. No word yet on how good it is and can't recall of the top of my head what they were calling it.

    I know it didn't say UffDa. I posted on NG's FB page about it.

    Back Forty Bock says Wisonsin Bock on the neck label.

    That's what was on the neck label. Considering Back 40 is a fall release, I'm sure this is what it is.

    Yep, now that it's been mentioned, I'm 100% sure that it was "Back Forty" and it's the next seasonal release.
