    I just had it and was surprised by it - certainly the best milkshake IPA I've had.

    So many good tidbits in this one. we need to use this to name the next BIF.


    BIF 16: would you rather sip of Rolling Rock or a spoonful of creamed corn?



    I have not had rolling rock in at least 20 years, but might have to grab a six back..

    Abner by HF, from @Roy_Hobbs . It's pretty good, even with some seniority.

    Actually sounds like a good (bad) idea for a blind taste test: can you tell the difference between Rolling Rock and creamed corn? :wink:

    Epic. Now this must make its way to the possible names for the next iteration of this BIF.

    At 6:10 AM this morning I posted I thought this would be my beer tonight, I didn’t change my mind :slight_smile:

    Enjoying courtesy of @Roy_Hobbs…

    Pours cloudy and a dirty orangey brown, off white head. It settles to a nice beautiful layer of creamy froth. Some very good lacing too.

    Nose has a sweet and fresh baked bread like aroma, I keep noticing the smallest hint of fruitiness.

    Taste is very pleasant; good combination baked goods, little bit of light breakfast tea, and again a subtle sweet fruit like note and some hops on the finish.

    Light side of medium on the body, but it drinks very smooth and creamy. A nice subtle hoppy finish.

    I’m very much enjoying this beer. Thanks for sending my way.

    He's already sent me two boxes, for cripe's sake - and I reviewed 5 of the beers he sent me on NBW this past weekend.
