    As you well know, i think F41 is the best IPA brewed in WA, even though the brewery calls it a Pale (only 4.5 abv). F41 and the Cutters are cut from the same cloth, so to speak, while Leota Mae, a damn fine beer in its own right, seems different. Where that Mango IPA fits, is a whole other matter.

    I agree! DDH Sue is one of the best IPAs I've ever had, and it's the one beer that convinced me that I like IPAs.

    I also prefer Sosus over King... but I have unpopular opinions.

    I’ve got to apologize everyone, had some personal emergencies come up that took all my time away from any hint making or participation in this thread, everything seems to have settled down here so I’m back....I still have about 5 pages to go through in here but target(hint something) I’ve made you wait, not on purpose but I have, it’s going to be worth it. I’m throwing in a campfire classic themed stout for you, and yes it is barrel aged. I appreciate your parience everything will be sent on Monday.

    Have yet to tick a TG brew but from what I’ve seen/heard, king sue is a must have.

    Hmmmmmmmmm - that should be easily remedied. I'll have a look around town this weekend. If the other folks in this thread don't beat me to it, of course.

    I hadn't either, but then got a box from @azuelke after a bunch of us bombed @RavageCat. It had 5 different TG beers including: Pseudo Sue, King Sue, Hopsmack!, Fire Skulls & Money, and Golden Nugget w/Mosaic. King Sue was really good, but Pseudo Sue and Fire, Skulls & Money were definitely my favorites.

    I didn't realize that we were taking requests. In that case, I have never had any Russian River, Surly, or Noon Whistle, among a host of others. :wink:

    Say what??? No Surly, you say?

    Well now. We can certainly fix that!

    I am a huge Foreign Objects fan boy. Thankfully I can buy most of them as singles so I don't have to spend $20+ per four pack. $5.50 per can seems more palatable when I'm in the store.

    I get that. Particularly when you're putting together a box for someone - you don't want to buy six four-packs. Six singles may not be as great a deal per can, but do you need three more of each of those beers?

    I like it that more stores are starting to do singles (edited), even if their incentive is the cash. I can still appreciate it.

    What a great group of folks in here. Thanks @Vidblain for the generosity, I wasn’t expecting such merely stating it’s on my bucket list to try. Anyone searching for things my way (no beers of fame here), feel free as I’d be happy to help

    Well, don't thank me until the box is in motion! TG distro is goofy these days. We occasionally get a drop of like seven thousand bottles... half are old, half aren't. It's sometimes difficult to track down what you want.

    But, I'll be looking out for you!
