2015 Surly Wet

Thanks for the Rochester info! What was the price on it?

 

At Andy's? I am guessing $35 a four pack.. could be off on that though.

 

Haha, yeah, Rochester overall tends to be priced higher for a lot of things. I think Axeman is 18.99 which explains why it's still in the shelf from the July run!

 

So it seems like there is plenty to go around this year, that's a nice improvement. Hopefully I can buy more than a single bottle of Founder's Harvest as well.

 

I'm lazy and had South Lyndale deliver it to my apartment, it was an extra $5 plus tip, they deliver to a pretty wide range as long as its above $25

 

Just cracked one and first impression is that I'm a bit underwhelmed. The last (and only other) time I had WET was in 2012 & I remember being blown away by the aroma and fresh cut grass and pine taste. This year's has very little aroma and while the taste is great, bright pine....It's not blowing me away like I remember. Very good IPA, but glad I only bought 1 4pk.

 

WOW you were living large my Friend Good for you and your delivery from them I guess it's okay to be lazy

 

North loop tweeted they have Wet. $17.99, though...

 

2012 Wet is the best beer I've ever had

 

This is not my favorite Wet, but Simcoe is not my favorite hop. It seems extremely well executed.

 

From my memory, it stands out as one of my most memorable beers too, so was hoping for a similar experience in 2015 as well since the 2012 was 100% Simcoe too. Not the case, unfortunately, but still solid.

 

Wow.. good for you my friend, being lazy pays off if you have the $$$

 

Not my favorite wet... 2012,2011 were the best ...2015 is a well made brew it is better than 2013 its well carbonated but just a good fresh hop brew no where close to 2012, will not seek any more of this brew this year

 

Didnt mean to brag/be a dick, just a fun option if you are unable to sneak away from the office and don't want to drive 30 min round trip after youve put in 10 hours, also helps I have 0 patience and couldnt wait to hit lake wine tomorrow

 

I wasn't around for the earlier renditions of Wet, so I can't really compare this with them. But by God did I love this beer. So juicy! Which is not a description I expect to use about a lot of IPAs.

 

Any kegs out there?

 

I swear I taste Belgian yeast. I dig the beer, and maybe my taster isn't as good as it once was. Anyone else picking up Belgian yeast notes?

 

$18.99 at Andy's

 

No Belgian yeast, but it really reminds me of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale or Torpedo...especially in the nose.

 

Pretty good, SUPER dank. I went for necessity and overpaid at Northloop. Got two four packs so I can share over the weekend. Will I buy more... No. Will I load my entire fridge with harvest when it comes out... Yes.
