    Very different. Nice. Interesting.
    Just don't go on The Newlywed Game.

    Thank you,

    Why the hell would you not still do Saison Saturday?

    I was briefed that Saturday, particular this one, should include a priority on frozen beverages. I’m happy to oblige.

    Heck man, it's going to be 89 degrees here in Northern Virginia, a slushie sounds great. Although, so does a bone dry saison with some nice funk to it too.

    Wild Rivulet (first time Oxbow was responsible for the “wild” part) is available. That’s a magical beer.

    fun fact: I was the first person (non-person involved) to taste the original rivulet.

    As for #FarmhouseFriday, we did Again & Again and Vernacular. Again, we were at odds. My better half enjoyed Vernacular while I preferred Again & Again (which I think is the best of my latest Oxbow stash so far, but I’ve got quite a few left).

    Next week, I think I’m going to bolster my saison stash at Silvaticus. I got a lambic mailed to me by Pure Project in San Diego. I’m stoked about that one.

    If this #SaisonSaturday gets enough of a following, it may even earn a dedicated thread.

    Just wanted to second that Grand Royal and Seaworthy are legit.

    I only bought a single of Grand Royal after some fairly boring Helles lagers from other breweries and definitely wished I got a 4-pack. Tons of flavor and a surprisingly bitter backbone that didn’t come off as overly hoppy.

    Seaworthy as an IPL is a nice change of pace. Love the reasonable 6.5% abv and very tasty.

    How is Forest/Maine? Highly acidic? Will be up there in few days and may buy a bottle, but I have been more partial to muted acidity lately.
