    Who are you and what have you done with @BoardwalkBock ? There's no way the original would've said such a thing about a fruited milkshake ipa.

    I was extremely hungover/still drunk (cant decide) from the night before. Sober me would never agree with this trend.

    @ecpho , To me, this illustrates them reaching towards their full potential and what I was getting at before. I grabbed two of these at my supermarket today when I was buying the groceries. $4 a bottle. Delicious beer. For a Cali common, it actually scratches the itch for a good English bitter better than almost any bottled craft beer that's actually trying to be an English bitter. :wink: That's a compliment even if it doesn't sound like one.

    I love Simple and Icculus. I'd love to be able to buy those in 16oz 4pks for say $9.99 like Newburgh's Cream and Brown Ales. Sprinkle in some Sierra Nevada, Jack's Abby and Montauk I'd be all set for beer.

    What supermarket has Simple?

    I would like that better too. I'd like 12oz 6packs at that price even better. They were at a Trader Joe's.

    Barrier has started its transition to add the beer garden and Rembrant is back on tap! Best dark beer they make by a mile.

    The Suburban Brunch is pretty killer too.

    Rembrandt is a great American porter but Barnacle brown ale is my favorite dark beer of theirs.
    Tell me more about this beer garden - they barely out out any info besides can releases these days. Do they still post who the monthly food truck is?

    If someone tries Flow can he/she please post their feelings about it? I have a buddy going for me tomorrow and it would help me decide how much money I’d be spending. Thanks in advance.

    I didn’t care for Flow but Nothing Is Too Much is a great beer that hides the 11% extremely well. I’d recommend grabbing some if you are nearby this week.

    Perfect timing and a good price point. I’ll be picking up a few 4 packs for beach consumption tomorrow night.

    Now if they only take my request about canning Beech St.

    I love Beech St. I'd love to see more choices besides IPAs in cans. Especially since Barrier has succcomned to the fruit lactose sludge ipa trend lately.
