    I would like to nominate giving you your own style name. I like to call it "Tillafunk" .

    Had more interesting discussion in this thread than most and nobody even got mad.

    I thought this would be an appropriate place to say that Belmont Station just tapped Cigar City Dragon's Blood Florida Weisse.

    I for one am probably gonna make it down to give it a shot. All this talk about Berliners has got me thirsty for one.

    Similar note: Cigar City in Oregon?

    I really enjoyed it. It's light and delicate taste-wise...not a much of an punch of juicy flavor as their Tangerine Weisse. Would love to hear some opinions about how it stacks up against DeGarde.

    Leftovers from OBF, apparently.

    I found it tasty, but I'd pick about 75% of de Garde's Bu variants over it.

    Ah, forgot that made an appearance.

    Yeah, had it at OBF. Not bad, but I think I was expecting more from it. This is what I've said about every CC beer I've had though besides Huna.

    I either your expectations are too high or you're not getting to drink the best that CCB has to offer. I will admit that CCB puts out a lot of standard fare when it comes to their treatments but they isn't surprising when a brewery that's been around for a little over 5 years has produced something like 500 different beers or treatments.

    But when it comes to their best beers...they are some of the best around

    I do live in Portland after all :slight_smile:

    But no, I'm almost assuredly not getting the best CC has to offer. I'd love to try some of their more highly regarded beers but haven't yet made the effort to trade for any.

    I am so glad you went there.

    Like i thought you were gonna go there, but was like nah, he's totally not gonna say it... AND THEN YOU DID.

    So thank you.

    Edit: But as an aside, thank you @Bartos for being so cool about talking to us PNW about the Florida side of things.
