@Steban Glad you like the box. The Heavy Machinery is actually the Belgian IPA, and is quite tasty. And that Blue Owl might be my favorite in the box. They are an all sour mash brewery that has opened up here. Waiting for cans of their chocolate sour cherry stout is killing me.
VBS #2 - courtesy of @Mipper bombing my hallway. Thank god the HOA didn't notice. Big time want, a great Gose.
Been away too long. Where is the #GIF or when is the next round? Tried searching but couldn't find anything. See that the #CIF is in CT but will skip this round.
The GIF hit @ohyeahitsmuff first. He should be setting up round two soon I think. I know he travels a lot for work.
Had a mini share tonight with @metaltornado Thanks to @VetsPackage for a few of these, @Elkevjoe for one as well!
Little product sample of the grapefruit rebel. Surprisingly not terrible, unsurprisingly not as good as sculpin. So late to market though, fuckin up big time
Late as in it's November, or late as in it's 2015? If the former, probably but they're big enough that the first couple releases are probably more product testing for spring. If the latter, well, no argument.
Late as in people are already sick of that take on the style. Doesn't help that they let Ballast get such a strong foothold. They ran into the same issue with Coney Island Rootbeer, NYF already had the market in a chokehold by the time they hit shelves.
Funny there in NYFR box Had the same problem in CT , went thru 30 cases of NYF by the time Coney Island came out
It will be making its triumphant return soon. i will probably post the sign ups today. I plan on filling the growler this weekend and getting it out early next week. sorry for the delay. it hit at a crazy time.
Ok Guys, I am continuing the #GIF. Growler it Forward. Please BM your info (name, address, etc) with the subject 'GIF' if you'd like to be involved. I'll keep sign ups open until Sunday at midnight. The plan is to: Fill up the grolwer with a quality local breweries beer Ninja off to a random member in the GIF Once they get it, they drink the grolwer and post a #VBS, once empty sign the grolwer with the sharpie / pen included. Additionally, there will be a wrapped "challenge" bottle in the box. There will a typed up challenge that must be completed and proven prior to unwrapping and drinking the bottle. If you complete the challenge please replace a new challenge and bottle prior to shipping along the new box. If for some reason you cannot video or take a picture of yourself doing the challenge due to job reasons, well think up a more appropriate challenge. It would be great to try and turn this around quicker and lastly have fun. This is open to anyone who participated in the first round of the Newbie BIF or signed up for the second one.
Had to get some beers in my fridge after being away from home for nearly 2 weeks. Growler was Divided by Zero from Rushing Duck. A great american IPA!
