    The voice of two experts is hard to ignore; but the question is will it go upward or downward from here? Having just had a bottle last night I'd prefer to spread it out a bit, but not at the expense of it heading downward.

    Freudian slip :rolling_eyes::grinning::grimacing:

    I am glad you liked that one and I think I rated it a 4.5 as well. This is my local so I am admittedly a homer so it is quite validating to hear you honestly enjoyed it as much as you did blind. Cheers bud glad we are off to a good start looking forward to see what is in store this evening :slight_smile:

    Here's how I predict it going. At the end of the 12-days, you'll be thinking to yourself "Shit...I've just had 4 Casey Brews in the last week. I should probably hold off on this one for a bit and spread out the joy" ...then over the next week @Kramerbarthomer and my comments will gnaw at your subconscious, till you're unable to eat, sleep, function. The batch 1 Saison will be like a beating heartbeat from your cellar floor.

    "No doubt I now grew very pale; --but I talked more fluently, and with a heightened voice. Yet the sound increased --and what could I do? It was a low, dull, quick sound --much such a sound as a watch makes when enveloped in cotton. I gasped for breath --and yet the officers heard it not. I talked more quickly --more vehemently; but the noise steadily increased. I arose and argued about trifles, in a high key and with violent gesticulations; but the noise steadily increased. Why would they not be gone? I paced the floor to and fro with heavy strides, as if excited to fury by the observations of the men --but the noise steadily increased. Oh God! what could I do? I foamed --I raved --I swore! I swung the chair upon which I had been sitting, and grated it upon the boards, but the noise arose over all and continually increased. It grew louder --louder --louder! And still the men chatted pleasantly, and smiled. Was it possible they heard not? Almighty God! --no, no! They heard! --they suspected! --they knew! --they were making a mockery of my horror!-this I thought, and this I think. But anything was better than this agony! Anything was more tolerable than this derision! I could bear those hypocritical smiles no longer! I felt that I must scream or die! and now --again! --hark! louder! louder! louder! louder!"

    Then you'll drink it, and enjoy it, and then wish you had more of it, and feel slightly ashamed of what just happened....get your earmuffs out of the gutter guys, I'm talking about beer!

    EDIT: Content hint...

    For the fact that in addition to the one I had yesterday, and the one I'll have today, apparently there are two MORE Casey brews waiting for me. #killingit

    I will be in KoP on Saturday and Sunday. Maybe we could open our bottles together.

    I've said it once...and I'll say it again! Casey has easily worked it's way into my top 5 favorite breweries. The mouthfeel is ridiculous. I have a friend on here who is a member and he hooks me up every once in a while with some of the great offerings! If any of you haven't tried any Casey yet...do yourself a favor and get on that!

    I'm off the Ft Wash exit of the turnpike (two east of KoP) so pretty nearby. Let me know what you're up to and when, but know that I probably won't be able to leave the house much. I'll see what I can talk the boss into in terms of having someone over.

    Hmmmmm..... I'm starting to form a clearer picture of what's inside my Saturday "birthday" wrapping paper, and what the "don't open until you're told" is all about......

    I don't want to interrupt the birthday celebrations, but I will send you a message this weekend and see what you are up to. I will be at my girlfriend's house- so she would be with me.

    If only you knew how little was going on that could be described as "birthday celebrations".... the issue is not that, it's that my wife works nights on the weekends and it's on me to take care of the kids, with 4/2/0-year-olds, this is no easy task, but does not preclude opening a bottle or two. The question is whether the boss is cool with me adding "outside people" (ie anyone that is not immediate family, who come and go as they please) on any given day.

    So today's beer was a real puzzler and I mean that. So I get home and felt the package (yea yea) and almost was certain it was a Crowler. As I try to figure out how to pour it without seeing what it was I came to a standstill. I was slowly unwrapping it and it became clear it want a Crowler but two cans stacked on top of each other. Or was it? I decided to close my eyes to open the can and pour it except another problem. It wasn't two cans it was one big can. I finally gave up trying to sneak it and then I laughed and picked the #properglassware:
