    I love Ed Fitz. Really do. It has been my favorite porter for years. But now it's second due to this little (big?) guy:

    Incredible body, pleasantly bitter with loads of chocolate and coffee. Would buy this regularly if not for the hefty price tag.

    KBS 2011. It's drinking really nice. The bourbon has blended really well with hints of coffee and chocolate poking through.

    Tick, tick, tick..

    This one was a shot in the dark. It looked like it was sitting on the shelf forever, but at $4 for the bomber, I loved the label design, because I'm a dirty, commie, flower picking hippie. No bottle date. The Rust Belt site is garbage, but if their release schedule is accurate, this is a 6 month old Imperial IPA.

    This sucks. A malty mess. Maybe at some point it was a tasty IPA, but I doubt it. I'm smoking a menthol cigarette right now to get through it, because drain pouring just isn't my style. Never had anything by Rust Belt before, so I can't make any assumptions in either direction. I'm starting to get drunk and this still blows. Even my cat from the previous post doesn't care to sit around and sniff this.

    The only problem is waiting so long to drink the Jai Alai! It'll be difficult but I'm up to the challenge.

    For now:

    This is becoming scarce around these parts. Just picked up another case today. A little over 2.5 months old. Still drinking fine. Can't beat it for the price.

    Awesome beer as are all of MBC's offerings. Too expensive for regular rotation though for me. I wish they would 4 pack like Jack's Abby does at a reasonable price.

    Me too! I've seen them in concert the last few summers, great shows both times, hoping to do it again this year.
