    I had a very fresh 19.2 oz 60 Minute a few days ago and it was really very good and a nice memory.

    I miss rye IPAs. Founders and SN both made great ones. Neither seems to any more.

    I came here to say Wookey Jack, and found lots of other people had already. Black IPAs were often not very good, but for me WJ really made the definitive case for the style.

    Could go for a fresh Double Jack too! That old-school, malt-backed DIPA style has really faded away. When done well, it could be great.

    Plenty of other Lindemans wine coolers on the shelves. Asked my local beer store owner and he checked his order guides and it wasn’t available. Other stores said they stopped carrying it because it wasn’t selling.

    Sam Adams Merry Maker Gingerbread Stout. I am not a fan of ginger or gingerbread cookies, but I love this beer. I had it the first Christmas after I got into craft, and they haven't distributed it since. They have had it in the Boston area on tap, but no distribution. Damn. It could be good in a Rum BA version too.

    Holy... that was one of my first beers. For a while, I was wondering if I imagined it, or something. Didn't even know they were discontinued...

    Imagine that. I loved the beer and I spelled it wrong. Bachelor Bitter. Last reviews for both were in 2017. Pine Mountain Pils is another. Last review in 2016.

    I guess Moosehead didn't find it worth while getting proprietary over Moose Drool.

    Like the Stone Green Tea mention, funny thing is I loved the original collab but when they remade it one year I didn't care for it. I still mention the original Stone RIS and Espresso version version. Yea, the original Ruination was very good.
