    the only thing the lictenheiner doesn't have going for it is that it's not out right now. probably my favorite beer from Westbrook.

    I'm in West Virginia this weekend, hoping to get Citrus Ninja and B'n'M when I return.

    Have to agree with this... Would love to see more Berliners coming out of there.

    Another really great offering from Westbrook. As for the devil dancer comparison, I've had both within the last week or two and I don't see much similarity, I thought Citrus Exchange was much better. Devil Dancer is pretty meh in my book. But I will agree with the comment on booze prominence. I noticed quite a bit of boozy flavors as well, although I personally didn't mind as I tend to like boozy beers.

    I will say though, that the regular Westbrook IPA still takes the cake for me. Just a fantastic IPA from top to bottom, neck and neck with Sculpin as my all time favorite 'single' IPA. And since I can't get sculpin anymore it's definitely my go to IPA (and go to year round shelf beer for that matter).

    Keep up the good work guys,

    Didn't see any at the Pig today but did pick up some bottles at Greens. Pleasantly surprised.

    I want to add to the Lichtenhainer love. I'm always a little cautious when it comes to smoked beers, but that beer was a very nice suprise. I passed one around at DLD and everyone seemed to really like it.

    I'm drinking Citrus Ninja Exchange right now and I'm really enjoying it. Keep it up Westbrook...

    Now that my head is cleared and I'm having again I gotta say I disagree with my own comparison.

    Sweet Jesus I'm there. Now I just need a cooler big enough to take it on the course with me.

    Had a regular Westbrook IPA followed by the Citrus Ninja....give me the regular Westbrook IPA. Maybe too much grapefruit for me.

    Yes, I too found the grapefruit taste a little overpowering. The regular Westbrook IPA is one of my favorites.

    If anyone is still looking for some in the Charlotte area Frugals has two full shelves of it at $7.99/bomber. It is very citrusy but the hops balance it out I thought. I found it quite good.

    ^thank you for the heads up. I was planning to hit up Frugals and Grapevine tomorrow afternoon.

    Do you know if either still has Brett N No Mices?

    I want to say I saw that at Frugals or maybe Stateline but I can't be sure.
