    I went to Meijers and there was a ton of fresh chicken this time around, which was a great sign. I also got some Sweet Baby Ray's hot sauce, as they were out of Valentina. Tastes very similar to Frank's, but a bit sweeter and smoky. Really like it a lot! I will try and expand my hot sauce rotation for sure. Will have to hit up Whole Foods to get a better selection.

    Stone Neverending Haze IPA. Excellent session NEIPA. Opaquely murky. Great fluffy head retention/foamy lacing. Aromas and flavors of big mandarin orange juice, red grapefruit, lemon, lime, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, passion fruit, mango, honeydew melon, blueberry, gooseberry, citrus peel/rind, wood, peppercorn, pine hops; with moderate wheat, cracker, biscuit dough, toasted malts; and herbal/floral/grassy hop earthiness. Light-moderate pine, citrus peel/rind, herbal, floral, woody, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Medium carbonation and body; balanced creamy/bready/grainy malts, sticky hops, and some resins/rinds in the mouthfeel. Light-moderate increasing resin dryness; no hop astringency. Very smooth/soft, zero warming 4%, with minimal lingering hop burn after the finish. Awesome Citra/Mosaic profile. Very juicy, vibrant, and fairly dank/earthy hops; with a great wheat/oat/malt backbone for the ABV. Minimal residual sweetness with lingering resin dryness. No complaints. Held up extremely well for December canning. Loved the hop profile as expected.

    Again today the Alaskan beer outshines the Hawaiian one.
    Must be the glacier water they use.

    I've always enjoyed this but haven't had it in a bit. It's ABV is 9.1 but doesn't come across as that high.

    Do they still produce Hobbit Juice? That was my favorite beer from them.

    This is a treat for sure. Drink what you like, and allow others to do the same. I ain't mad at cha. @CanConPhilly, did you try the Nelson milkshake from Tired Hands? I've kind of grown sour on the majority of their shakes, but I was definitely intrigued by that one. Cheers!

    Didn’t try the Nelson shake, but @thebeers did. I did try the Galaxy one and dug it a lot.

    As far as I know they do. I bought this at a package store so I'm not sure what's going on at the brewery.

    Half a bottle of this fantastic beer. I'll need a break from the sweetness and I'll have the second half later.

    Curiosity Ninety Seven. Are we really at 97? I remember living in CT, my favorite one was Curiosity Twenty-Two??? Who freakin' knows. Kudos to longevity. Thrilled that they are pumping out contactless beer pick-up during these trying times. Cheers!
