    Doing some home brewing today so I went and picked up a 32 of deserted village (coffee) and a 32 of no brakes to enjoy a nice Saturday. Can't wait to crack these.

    I had 2 pints of No Brakes at the brewery yesterday, excellent brew. It hides it's ABV very well and is balanced.

    Just opened the growler and I am plowing through my glass a little too quickly. Tastes really nice, I like the slight bite on it. Another great TE beer.

    Ughhh why can't they have the production room like Asbury Park brewing? These guys could do (even more) amazing things on a 20-30bbl system.

    Cracked Twins' deserted village with coffee (the none barrel aged beer) and it is damn good.

    Props to Twin Elephant. Their hoppy xPAs are damn good, but they're not a one trick pony. I have to try some of their new saisons. I'm not a big fan of the style but twin elephant pulls them off so well.

    Everything’s tasting awesome this week. Rugged Snuggle is delicious. Tuxedo Bulldozer is an awesome NE IPA, on par with the big names of the style. Real good stuff this week.
