Hop Butcher (2019)

NTS mouthfeel is perfect, very slick. Im getting a ton of coconut from the sabro hops.

 

Glad a scooped up normalize yesterday. I’d be suffering from severe FOMO had I not after hearing all of this positive banter about it. Cracking a can tonight

 

I'll have to give this new one a try, but all of this coconut talk has me worried

 

I got no coconut from it. Maybe I didn't try hard enough or maybe I just grouped it in with other tropical notes...

 

x2, its fantastic though

 

St Patrick’s day is coming.....

 

and The Worlds Colombian Coffee Exposition is coming this week too

 

This is certainly one of my top 3 favorites by them.

 

I really like the St. Paddy's Day tie-in, but I'm skeptical of an NE IPA with mint.

 

I don't think I've had a bad stout from Hop Butcher. World's Colombian, Test Your Might, and Doghouse are all really tasty.

 

This is why I've always wanted them to be more than just an DDH-DIPA factory. When they do other styles, it's usually really good (although not such a big fan of their saisons)

 

I assume that if/when they open their own tap room, they will have a bigger variation in styles. But it seems like experimenting with new hops and different combinations is kind of their "thing," and it probably always will be.

 

Mint Milkshake IPA? I'll be torn between that and a green Miller Light in a race to the bottom of the gutter on St. Patties....

 

Justin posted in his Instagram story that the mint milkshake will be on draft at Miskatonic at 3 today

 

I'm curious about the mint milkshake, I've always loved mint stuff maybe not in beer though. That said, I'll get a can if I can. Not every beer has to be the most epic thing I've ever tasted. I really enjoyed osmething like Lizard of Koz even if I'll never want another bottle.

 

swans looks like fucking ecto-cooler

 

Huh, you weren't kidding.

 

For Real

 

Damn, didn't know it was a collab with Eagle Park. I've been wanting to try their stuff. Now I may have to try it even thought it still looks awful.

 

I don't know. McDonald's Shamrock Shake has been a favorite of mine since childhood. A Shamrock Shake hazy DIPA could be really good. I'm looking forward to it.
