    Some great hauls so far! Mista and I shared a few bottles tonight and he graciously shared Kiwi Rising, which was the highlight of the night. Man that was a big ass Double Imperial Pilsner. Plenty of grapefruit pith as well some lime, tropical fruit and herbs. Really interesting beer and bitter as hell!

    I just had this beer and it can easily be cellared for a few years.

    Was a tough call between which of the NG Fruit beers I wanted to send, but having recently tried this one, I thought it was great.

    Hint: Tonight's beer is a want, if I remember correctly.

    Glad to hear you're enjoying everything so far! The Ravaged by Vikings is from Solemn Oath, a newer brewery in the Chicago burbs.
