    Guys,

    Just posted.....and you had better get this. Last years batch was a 4.65 in my book; the collab with Other Half (Brooklyn, New York) called Wholesome Jams. I ordered my share, so go get yours.

    Also is Motor Oil v8 (Maple Syrup and Pecans). Again, I got mine; go get yours!. Per ASB Instagram, they targeted this to be more Imperial Stout then Pastry Stout, and that is PERFECT for me. Really looking forward to it.

    2021 ASB is starting out banging. They've already got me spending my money :slight_smile:

    Yeah, Wholesome Jams was a favorite from 2019. Looking forward to this release.

    I don’t want to hear this right now, trying to cut back. But honestly now I’m going to grab at least a can of each for science.

    Definitely trying to get my hands on the new Motor Oil. Haven't been able to get the last few batches.

    I am having one right now. You need to get your hands on this. I am really enjoying it. One of their better Motor Oil releases. I appreciate that it is not too sweet, while yet letting the Maple and Pecan shine through. It is worth it IMHO.

    Picked up WJ at Final Gravity Roseville. Drank it under the lights last night. Real good. Nose was right there on opening. Big flavor hit. Smooth. Nelson, Mosaic and Idaho 7.

    Calculator Crazy is really excellent.

    If you like greener, drier, and pungent, this is it.

    I agree!!! This is fantastic! B1>B2 IMO, but it is really close! I was a little apprehensive as the first batch of this blew me away and I didn't want to be disappointed, but this was so tasty! With that Other Half, classic, soft on the palate vibe.

    And I am shocked we haven't ran into each other yet! Ha! I was at Final Gravity today getting cans! Cheers!!!

    Anybody else try this one!? This is a fantastic WC triple IMO! I got some Pliny the Younger vibes while drinking it! :astonished::grimacing:

    Okay, okay...maybe it was the glass, but this is really good! LOL! :grin:

    I got drain pour vibes. But I’m probably in the minority.

    Yeah, B2 and B1 are pretty close. Either way, WJ is a solid beer. Got more at OTP Roseville.

    I'll just add to the Wholesome Jams love fest - drinking one right now and it's awesome. 4.5 for me.

    Def curious about that Biggies Crunchee collab with Other Half. I’ve been trending away from pastry sours the last couple months, but I might have to pick up a can if I hear it’s good.

    Just a heads up, but ASB is having $10 flat shipping on all orders <$100 and free shipping on all orders >$100 until Sunday I believe.

    CNJ 17 is dank sauce. Drier, bitter, not as silky but pungent diesel goodness. Reminds me of old OH.

    Another great batch of Murkaholics. Big Juice up front.

    I seem to recall the first batch of Revengeful Barbarian getting underwhelming reviews, and I never had a chance to try it. I don't know if this recent batch is just way different than the first, but it was easily one of the better IPAs I've had in recent months. Liked it more than Gnarfield from Humble Sea, which I'd had the day before, and thought was awesome.

    I cracked this open an hour ago. Glad I got my share before it sold out.

    I can see why. This is hovering around 4.4 for me. Man, I am digging this one. Hits all the right notes for me.
