    I was at FR recently for a company holiday dinner and felt like their NE IPA's have dropped in quality. Might by palate changing or over saturation of the style in the market, but overall I was underwhelmed by Snoochie Boochies and Radio Swan, both of which I have enjoyed in the past. So I'm right there with you.

    In less humorous related beer news today - PW made a massive drop of Supremium, Velocity, Speed, and Pilsner at my friendly downstate Binny's yesterday. This makes me very happy to see all of these as we've been touch and go on all of these - actually think we only saw Velocity in the past and it wasn't a lot. Looking forward to to a Speed tonight. Thanks @Pipeworks . I appreciate the downstate love.

    SoS is great. Loved it each time I had one. I have one left.

    Haven't had any of the other three, as I'm watching my budget. Spent way too much money on beer this fall/winter.

    I'm 48, and I say this every year. But I REALLY mean it this year.
    A couple of visits to Revolution, one to Pipeworks, and a few extra drops of BCBS and I am simply DONE! #DrinkTheCellar

    I support building the cellar bigger and stronger! Make the cellar great again! Durp!

    Speed of Sound is an excellent beer. Yes, it's fairly one dimensional in flavor, but I love mosaic so I'm all good with that. For me, Speed edges out VoL. Which surprised me because I love that galaxy/mosaic combo.

    People were reporting weirdness with Encore. Just cracked one. It was delicious. Thick and balanced with great coffee and non-artificial blueberry, with a little heat. Enjoy!

    I hadn't heard anything about this, but since you mentioned it, I cracked this one a week or so ago with a friend and it was fantastic.
