Barrier Brewing Co.

Just finished my first. Smells and tastes the same as the liquid contained in these new fangled “pens” that all the kids are toking on. I had to break open a pen to confirm.

I gave it a 4.25.

 

I am not sure I get the last comments but am digging Ish. Really a balanced beer, reminds me a bit of Wrench. Probably a 4.35 upon first tasting

 

They are saying it's dank.

 

Dank and bitter or dank and "soft"?

 

Soft, you won't like it.

 

Thanks - I hope I can find more Hop Damn then.

 

Do NOT sleep on Bird's Eye View if you like coffee, this is a really good beer.

 

I have to go to PC Richards after work so I will definitely be taking the slight detour.

 

Just had Thunder at the brewery. Its fucking awesome. Never had a Midnight Wheat Wine but I hope they keep this in the rotation. It’s like a smooth, wheat filled stout.

 

I like a wheat wine, I hope it gets bottled.

 

I just had a Bird's Eye View, this is a great stout. Not heavy, not sweet, not overpowered by any of the additives at all. Just a wonderful all around stout and I love the subtle taste. Lately coffee beers are all about the coffee and I'm tired of that.

 

It's a little strong coffee wise when cold, but the coconut really shines as it warms. I'm thinking about buying another few 4 packs.

I'm going to save a few to see how they taste with some time.

 

I didn't get a really strong coffee taste (and was enjoying it) but I only had one can so far. It wasn't my first beer of the day so that could of had an effect. I'll definitely pick up some more, I have a local spot that starting getting Barrier cans. Just wish they had more Hop Damn.

 

Has anyone tried Juice Chills, the collab with Rushing Duck, yet?

 

It's not bad, but it's not lighting the world on fire. Your typical unfiltered 2 row, wheat, ton of late/no boil hops.

 

Found some 4-packs of Money Mad Fat! at Clinton Gourmet Market today. Gave in to temptation and paid the $0.99/can mark up, helped along by the canned-on date (1/25/18! canned after the Monday release?). What's the consensus on how this is drinking? BA/UnTapped scores are both ~4.2, but not many reviews, just ratings.

 

I had a can yesterday and really enjoyed it. Id say 4.2 is around the mark.

 

While the collabs are good, don't sleep on Suburb Nelson

 

Def agree, but for me it had the most astringent burn of the three.
Bet was good, tasted like Money but with one or two different hops in it. Didn’t try Secure the Bag yet.

 

First trip up today and had a nice experience. Really liked the sour that was on DollFace
