    Seriously?

    One is a 9% ABV 120 IBU DIPA and the other is a 5.8% ABV 50 IBU APA.

    I agree with drink the p'Sue first, if you insist on doing a comparison, but, really, those two are not comparable.

    Yes. I picked some up a couple of weeks ago. IDK if there is any still around, though.

    I saw some Harvest ale in the cooler at Rapids last night if you're looking to get some.

    Saw a few bottles at Glen Lake Wine and Spirits last week. At least worth a call.

    Has anyone seen Schell's Snowstorm in South Mpls or downtown St Paul?

    Also, if anyone has tried the BP Harness, does it appear to be the same recipe as last year? I know they changed the can (which is a bummer, because I thought the old one was beautiful), but I wasn't sure if there were other changes.

    There were about a half-dozen mixed four packs of the Dragon's Milk variants (one of each in the mixed pack) at Blue Max less than an hour ago, $14.99. That's what was on the floor, not sure if there's more in back.

    Why can't you hear a pterodactyl in the bathroom?















    Because the P is silent.

    picked up a sixer last night at Falls, first can I grabbed was super flat (think abrasive, but worse). all the other cans seem to be fully carbonated, thinking maybe it was just a can that had a slow leak (hopefully). kinda disappointed since all I wanted was a nice beer to top the night off after a 13 hr work day

    Question on the buffalo sweat: Ive seen BA Buffalo Sweat. No mention of vanilla. Can someone confirm that BA Buffalo Sweat and BA Vanilla Bean Buffalo Sweat are in fact two different beers?

    Sorry for the image size difference but that should answer the question. Both are 12 oz. cans.

    Also, we normally get vanilla bean buffalo sweat as a seasonal (non barrel aged) which is a different beer. That comes in pint cans.

    Um I'm sorry you can't compare how different styles of beer deliver the same hops? I'm not trying to do a fricking exact IBU-hop comparison but thanks for the input, since you insisted.
