    Got as an extra in a recent trade - first time having it. This is absolutely delicious! Very refreshing, especially after just having gotten back from a run.

    Felt like a burger and fries kind of night so that's what I'm having along with a Carton 077XX which came from @SammyJaxxxx. Very citrusy and delicious!!!

    Not typically a style I visit, but not too bad nonetheless. Jammin' out to some old Stone Roses, "Love Spreads" after a 14 hour shift.

    Cheers BA!!

    I keep passing by that one. Do you think it's worth picking up?

    So smooth and dangerous for a double IPA. Huge thanks to @5EKF for making it possible for me to have this a couple more times.

    It's a great DIPA all around. If you love Citra then it's very much worth a go. Previously in the bombers, the price point was absolutely awful, but with the 4 pack cans being around $12 or so now, its definitely FAR better on price.

    Finishers:

    My go-to Gose. Just got a freshly dated 2015 6 pack yesterday. Big tart lemon, lime, green apple, white grape, wheat, cracker, coriander, sea salt, and and herbal earthiness. Great acidic/saline balanced finish. Very smooth and crisp. Blood orange should be hitting around here in the next month or so. It's a bit more balanced and drinkable with less salinity and acidity overall. Both are so crushable though.

    My go-to black IPA. Juicy grapefruit/pineapple/mango/orange peel/pine hops and moderate cocoa/coffee/toast/charred malt balance. Nice sticky/roasty bitter finish. Great malt presence while still being nicely hop forward. Coming up on 4 months since bottling, but I still love it.

    My go-to american porter as of lately. Big robust flavors of chocolate, cocoa, coffee, toast, and dark bready malts with balanced earthy herbal hop flavors and herbal/roasted bitterness. Such a classic example of the style. I love strong munich malt presence in porters, hits the spot so well from this one.

    Absolutely fantastic, as with with regular Sumpin. Big bright flavors of grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, mango, lemon zest, orange peel, and pine; with moderate wheat/crackery malt and a smooth/sticky hop mouthfeel and finish. Restrained but noticeable fruity house yeast earthiness as usual. Basically just a stronger version of Sumpin, all of the core flavors are basically identical. Love this stuff.

    I was just there. Look out for anything from NOLA, Great Raft, or Gnarly Barley.
