    Now on to a Sculpin IPA while watching the halftime show, lol! I will say, this is very citrusy up front and really drinks like a IIPA.

    Jack's Abby keeps pumping out great beer after great beer. I consider Hoponious Union one of my overall favorites and definitely my favorite MA beer in ages. RIPL Effect takes a hop bill similar to Hoponious and adds a great use of rye to it. I think they are officially my favorite brewery in MA now, just great all around. Can't wait to get some growlers for my friend's tasting of all things hoppy this weekend.

    NFL is back and I am just hoping to see an epic choke by either team. I predicted it would be Romo so I guess I will go that route.

    Trying this one fresher than usual in the Samuel Adams Harvest Collection helped me really get this beer.

    Looks tasty! I haven't had that beer in about 8 months. FBS hasn't shown up in Northern KY yet. It needs to get its ass in gear.

    That's what mine is out of too. If I remember right I had my first one after a resin and something else, so I don't feel like I got everything out of it I could have. Now I'm quite enjoying it.

    Question: roughly how often does this beer get released? Looking at a job in Bakersfield, and you can bet your ass that if I move out there I'll be driving to Alpine more than once in a while.

    And, how much is a bottle of Expo? I'm not familiar with typical pricing for Alpine.

    Currently drinking an Alaskan (oatmeal) Stout. Was excited to check this one out, wasn't expecting anythng ridiculous from it but thought it would be a nice, solid oatmeal stout. So far its been a bit of a let down. Hopefully its a grower but I am doubting that right now.

    What chili peppers (ground or otherwise) do you like to use in yours? I tend to gravitate towards ancho, chipotle, paprika, and cayenne. All dried and ground, of course.
