2017 Beer Wish List

Both Lawson's and Tree House are able to handle the demand in their new confines without issue(like alchemist did).

Cbs reruns to bottles

 

I would love Fat Heads down in Hampton Roads VA (or just VA, period)
I wish we'd get a little more Great Lakes than you normally get west of Afton (hooray, Eddie Fitz and Dortmunder... please throw me more bones)

 

Would like to see Pliney the Elder get distributed to Montana. ( Yeah I know hold on to that dream ) and Sierra Nevada's Hoptimum actually make it to Billings, MT again. It has in the past but they weren't able to get their 2016 Seasonal offering.

 

More east-coast style IPA interpretations on the west coast. I have only had a few examples, but I would like to try more. I have always preferred tropical fruit flavors over pine/dank.

 

Well made smoked beers in cans, for $12 a 12-pack. (Yeah, I know...my wishes never come true, so thank God I'm really good at dealing with reality ).

 

I want to go back to the time when old Expedition Stout and Ten Fidy sat... and sat.... and sat until it was aged a year or two on the shelf for me. Now they dissappear outside of their season.

 

1) Hoof Hearted has multi can releases
2) Columbus Brewing opens a taproom
3) I make a pilgrimage to TreeHouse
4) Brew Gentlemen starts canning
5) Belmont County, OH gets its first brewery (unlikely)

 

I want a brewery in north SD to start making/canning NE IPAs. Can't get enough of that shit right now, and I am tired of tracking down Monkish cans and relying on trades.

 

Double barrel Ten Fiddy with vanilla beans and cocoa nibs
BA Yeti w/coffee, cocoa nibs and vanilla beans
Barrel aged FIS w/vanilla beans, cocoa nibs and chili peppers
Parabola w/maple syrup, vanilla and cinnamon
Ba Darkness w/coffee, cocoa nibs and vanilla beans
Ba Narwhal w/coffee, cocoa nibs, vanilla beans, cinnamon & chili peppers
no more KBS (hello CBS)
Bomb!/Black Tuesday Variant
Royal Oil/BCBBW
Apple brandy GBS/Vietnamese Speedway
BA Victory at Sea/Tweak

yeah, I'm a dreamer who loves chasing whales...

 

My only wish is for some uninfected Bourbon County for many years to come!

 

I wanna get the one girl in the office to try craft beer then maybe she will let me...................

 

Tree House and Russian River go national and distribute to all 50 states.

Hey you said wishes right?

 

1. KBS, BCBS, Surly Darkness, and Prairie Pirate all produced in sufficient quantity to be available long enough for me to nab a case or two each - without having to chase them.
   
2. That brewers tame the ABV of cult beers such as BCBS, KBS, etc so one bottle does not render you too drunk to drive. Alcohol forward is not necessary or desired - these beers would sell as well at 8%, and would likely taste better. They don't need to be 12-13% to make them appealing.
3. That brewers consider bombers a vessel for testing popularity, and once that is established then get it into 12oz, or drop it. Particularly true of high ABV beers, where a bomber is equivalent to a six pack of 4.2% beer.
   
4. That brewers would standardize a new rating which states the equivalent alcohol impact (EAI?), where they multiply ounces by ABV, then divide by 50.4, telling the drinker the equivalent number of 12oz 4.2% ABV beers. Most consumers know how many Buds they can handle, so give it to them in those terms.
5. That South Dakota allow beer sales via mail.

 

More cans of all beers that are most enjoyable in the summer. 12 oz and 16 oz

I would love for Firestone Walker to begin distributing in Michigan.

A return of Founders Cerise wouldn't suck.

 

More IPAs made with Nelson. @TheIPAHunter Ya dig?

More rye beers

Theres not much i missed just more id like to see like traditional Gose not those warhead sour fruited up goses.

 

Do you get Forgotten Boardwalk? Their beer Morro Castle is a smoked porter. $10 sixers in cans. Its a very good beer. Out of Cherry Hill, NJ. About 2 hours from NYC to give you an estimate.

 

Cheaper Lost Abbey bottles.

 

I haven't seen that one in a while. From what I hear it's either been discontinued or turned into a seasonal, hopefully the latter. But, yeah, more beers like that would be great.
