    Oh man, the Breck BA Ten Fidy is the best. Hope it's still on this weekend!

    Which variety did you have? Recently opened a crowler of the Spring 44 Whiskey Fidy and I liked it so much more than when I had it on tap back in April!

    We had the Breck Fidy most recently that was that old, and it tasted phenomenal. He'll remember the first crowler that we got, but it didn't hold up as well as the Breck barrel. I want to say it was Peach Street, but I can't remember for sure.

    My thread mysteriously disappeared. But here's what I posted for you OB fans:

    Generally I wouldn't make a big deal out of a tap list on a Thursday, and keeping in mind this is a Mountain forum and not just a CO forum, I thought the taplist at HML&S today was pretty stellar and deserved some attention.

    Here's what I thought was notable:

    OB:
    Breck Ten FIDY
    Tequila Gubna
    ODB Barley Wine
    Appleton Old Chub
    Death By Coconut

    Firestone Walker:
    Parabola
    Sucaba
    Stickee Monkee
    Anniversary 17

    Lost Abbey:
    Deliverance

    Goose Island:
    Sofie Paradisi

    Russuan River:
    Pliny
    Blind Pig

    Avery:
    Ellie's Brown


    I'm not a fan of all the beers listed, but I recognize ones that people tend to gravitate towards.

    P.S. Breck Ten FIDY was still available for Crowlers at Tasty Weasel as of 2PM today

    I visit HML&S often and have never seen any of the variants available there. They are, well apparently were, exclusive to the TW.

    I was pretty surprised because I thought the same. I had seen one specialty on the menu at HML&S before, but it had kicked.
    I got samplers of them all and there wasn't a bad one in the bunch. But the Breck Ten FIDY had the rest solidly beat. Second up I would say the Tequila Gubna, but I also love great Tequila, so I'm biased.
