Roaring Table (2023)

Bottles & Cans didn't have Warbler Vivant (or they had already sold out) when I went in Saturday. Believe me, if I see it, I'm buying it.

 

Had a can a few days ago and quite enjoyed it. Nicely flavorful mild. And as much as I enjoyed it from the can, I imagine it would be approaching sublime off the beer engine @ RT.

 

not sure if this too out of the way, but beermiscuous in lakeview has warbler vivant (and the dunkel and a bunch of other RT stuff). I grabbed both and some more accordance

 

Any thoughts on Concision?

I’m a little sticker shocked. But if it’s of the quality All American Burger, then I suppose I can justify it maybe once or twice a year

 

This is definitely a departure from their usual pricing, but at the end of the day their west coast IPAs have been stellar, so yeah, I dig this one more than any WC IPAs in Chicagoland. This is highest ABV hoppy brew they've put out (I think?), with some fancy hops so kind of makes sense...

FWIW I usually shop at bottle shops that let me get single cans, so I can just get one or two and not worry about spending an extra buck on something I don't drink every day.

 

can confirm

 

I’m having a can of it right now; it’s really good and worth the price of admission . Dank, citrusy and moderate bitterness. Crystal clear and nice fluffy head. It has that slimmed down malt bill that makes the beer feels lighter than the abv and the hops shine.
RT has been killing it lately with a wide range of styles. I’m not sure if the “—ion” name is a shout out to Pliny / Russian River , and this isn’t same beer, but I see the similarities.

Warbler Vivant is fantastic. Chocolate-y, nice coffee notes and an oak-y / acorn-y finish.

Looks like it's on cask at the Beer Temple...I may have to go tomorrow!!

 

Warbler Vivant was better than expected on cask. And I expected it to be great!

 

Found a cold solo can of concision tonight. Thx beer cellar, I’ll be going back for a 4pk later this week!

this is Half Acre at its best level good. (Half acre is my favorite brewery in the state. If you love hops and want a master class in how to create an intense yet refined hop experience, then this is for you. You won’t many more laser focused west coast IPAs.

comparisons? It’s the Nelson from PW Nelson without the malt, the hard candy resin from
HA Preen without the the sticky malt. It’s the dank blueberry weed that blew your mind a decade ago. This beer is a lean mean hop machine. A+. this is top notch intention and execution.
