Aardwolf Brewing's first bottle release is...

Jack Daniels Barrels. Mmmmm. I'll be there bright and early. No pun intended

 

Wish I could have made it up to Jville for this one. I was at a wedding. If any locals missed Underdark and want to swap a bottle or two, let me know.

 

Good times. Good beer. Enjoyed drinking with everyone in what became of our line.

 

I have a question for the Jax people in reference to Aardwold. A good friend of mine is from there so I occasionally go with him to party for the weekend when he sees friends/family that I also know. I have gone to Intuition and Beer30 with him several times, but I have heard from many people at each place that Aardwolf employees have an aura high regard.

Basically, I've been told they ride a high horse and can be jerks.

This really surprises me due to the relaxed nature Jax has, and especially in conjunction with the beer industry as a whole. What do others think so I can try to draw a consensus from a larger audience?

Their beers sound fantastic, but if they are jerks then I'll pass.

 

ISO, Ill be in Jacksonville Monday afternoon.

 

I don't know who told you that but the staff at Aardwolf are great people man no joke. Killer staff all around

 

The half dozen times that I have been there, every person I've dealt with was awesome. Makes missing out on this one a bit of a bummer.

 

Cool. Thanks for the info fellas. I look forward to checking it out next time I head up there.

 

anyone else drink one of these lately?

I hate to be "that guy" but I was lucky enough to try this on 2 occasions. The first time was within a week or 2 of its release and i thought it was good. Albeit, not much better than the base beer itself.

But ive had it a second time now and it seems something has gone wrong. I dont want to say the dreaded infected word but there was a "tang" to this beer that was not present in it the first time I had it.

 

I have one in the fridge and will be cracking it open in the next few weeks. I'll let you know if there is anything off about it.

 

Had one on Saturday and it was fine

 

Had mine a week ago, and it was great.

 

Damn, I will have to stop in next time I am in town, Which might be more often now that we have a condo in orange park.

 

I second that, they are remarkably cordial, attentive, and polite. There is always 3 or so people working the bar as well, I've never had an issue there and often think that they are really friendly people.

 

I agree with what has already been said about the staff... they are an awesome group of people. I've had nothing but great service all around. As for the beer.... I've not noticed any signs of infection, just a delicious beer.
