    I think that's too harsh. It's totally a fun beer and delivers on exactly what it's supposed to be. I enjoyed drinking it but 16 oz would be too much.

    Having had both cherry, and grape cough medicine extensively as a kid, I can tell you grape was an absolute treat compared cherry. I fortunately never had a cherry beer taste remotely close to Robutussin....Cherry always went good with beer for me.

    after this release lembeek 86 might not be other halfs worst brewed beer.

    ‘practice, not a game’ gives it a run for its money.

    Calpol (UK equivalent of children’s Tylenol) used to have an orange flavour. Nothing can top that for long-lasting psychological damage.

    For real? I didn’t get any. Lembeek 86 is in my top 5 worst beers of all time. Practice is really a contender?

    I road 90 miles yesterday - should have taken a couple of cans - cos I felt like death riding back through the city at the end. Was 2pm and felt like 106....

    Space Diamonds is awesome!

    Dimetapp is gross, I afraid of anything grape flavor because of it.

    Nobody was drinking the 14% stout yesterday!? I need a review before deciding to get a bottle.

    I actually used to love Dimetapp as a kid. Used to harass my mom to let me take swigs of it and for her to slip me some extra Flintstones chewables.

    Get one. I really liked the taster I got today. Lots of coconut but Not too sweet. Just as good or better than the green city reg stout IMO. This hop showers is real good too... and this Space Diamonds batch is amazing

    practice is definitely better executed but it just should have never been brewed. It tastes like you mixed half hop showers and half gatorade. Could barely finish a taster.

    in fact that would be an awesome taste test. half oh ipa plus half hand picked gatorade lemon lime vs practice. lets make it happen.

    You really think they didn't just do that and canned it?

    I feel like they've strayed a little bit from the style guidelines by calling a 9% sour with ice cream sandwiches, strawberries, cacao nibs, vanilla, and lactose a berliner weisse. Really loved Crystal Waves so I'll probably snag a 4 of Crispy Waves.

    I mean there’s a Berliner Weiss under there somewhere lol. Sure the base beer has some wheat in it

    Whoever did the juju thing for space diamonds (which is fucking phenomenal), can you do same for ACE/Mylar this Thursday? Much as a 9% ice cream/chocolate/strawberry “Berliner” sounds incredibly tempting....
