    Cheers to more beers in 2024!

    Thanks for the tip on Benthic. I wouldn't have noticed it without your post. I'm not familiar with Half Acre stouts. A little pricey as I mentioned in the other thread but did enjoy it.

    South Lyndale also has Alesmith BA Speedway and Prairie Razzle Dazzle and Indulge Me.

    Anyone seen Saga Imperial IPA in 4/6 packs? I've only seen it in 12 packs.

    Pretty sure MGM Forest Lake had the 6-packs, I was looking for a 12 though and those were all sold out. It could be a new regular for me so I'm not surprised.

    Surly Double Bladed Axe Man has been released once again; the four pack I found had a canning date of 1/10/24. It's delicious. But the price is $22/4 pack. Yeesh, Surly.

    Anyone seen BA Darkness Cold Smoked Cherry around, preferably the south metro? Saw it everywhere a couple weeks back & now it seems to have largely vanished - not the variant I thought would be tough to find!

    I mean, you’re getting TWO blades for that price.

    Also, it was only $16.49 at France 44 just now, so prices vary.

    Saw it at Shorewood last night, but that's probably a bit out of the way for you. They had all three from this year.

    Wow. That’s quite a variance.

    Eagan Total Wine. It's amusing when they showed up here several years ago they talked about being "the cheapest option" & I find they are often a bit above most local shops.

    I think this will be the first time in 15 years that I will miss Town Hall Barrel Aged week. But the only one that I am sorely going to miss out on is the Double Barrel Rye. Cannot tell exactly what the Baltic Porter is though as I miss BA Odin.

    Looks like Central Waters Peruvian Morning is showing up around town - Hy-Vee in Brooklyn Park had a handful of 4 packs. I haven't seen that beer around the twin cities in years.

    Tamarack Tap Room in Woodbury has this on tap. It is fantastic and now I’m regretting cans I passed on.
