    I was up North the last few days and the end of the last thread was more discussion, so not sure what to start off with, except to say that even during these slow summer months, good beers are still popping up, so report them here!

    Oh, yes. And..."CBS kicked at tilia" - Thanks Mothman!

    Misanthrope is on tap at the Surly Beer Hall. It has been on tap for a while in the Brewer's Table, but it's finally available downstairs. Also Brett Mikkel's IPA and 1349 Pale are on along with the more usual offerings.

    Had the indeed stouts last night. Liked the acronym one better than whiskey queen, but both worth trying. The bartender said if whiskey queen doesn't move super quickly from the tap room then they will bottle it.

    I'd maybe buy a bottle or two to sit on and see if it gets any better. Thanks for sharing this info! Let's spread the word to not drink the queen!

    I am sure you probably already know this, but they are doing growlers of it at least... Not the same as a bottle, but still a nice way to take some home.

    Passed on the growlers as I would have had to drink them sooner than later and that really wasn't something I wanted to do. Bottles could sit for a year or two and hopefully get better #SoYoureSayingTheresAChance

    Also, this is my 1000th post on here (probably had many more before the site crashed years back, but hey, who's counting?)! Here's to the next thousand!

    Dang, thanks for the heads up. Haven't had a chance to try BA Silhouette yet. I truly enjoyed the Irish Coffee though.

    their irish coffee is enjoyable. the $13 price tag for a bomber is not. if it was a $4.99 bomber like central waters brewhouse, would snag a lot more of it.

    Happy hour price was nice. But I've gotta say, BA Silhouette is not the beer it was fresh. Bit of a letdown as I thought it would improve with a little age. Its getting too boozy :slight_frown:
