Everything Jester King

Yeah that's pathetic.. But if they are willing to pay it, that's smart business tactics

 

Uh, Weasel Rodeo is available in Alabama. At least it was. I remember JK said they sent some there (it was either that or the Whiskey version). So they're even moreso ******ed.

 

The base is jester king. Buddha's Brew brews the tea part of the beer.

 

Yeah, I'm sure he knows that. He was saying if he was just drinking the base beer he'd be happy. As would I.

Pretty good stuff. I haven't tried Buddha's Brew yet, so I can't compare them.

 

Any places with Buddha's still in Austin?

 

Thanks. I'll search that one out.

I found this to be the most sour of JK's beers. Think warheads sour or '10 Riserva, plenty of vinegar comes through and adds depth to the tartness. To me a majority of the tartness comes from the tea at least that what I taste, regardless the blending of the two works very well and spliting a bottle 2-3 ways worked well..it'll be interesting to see how the flavors change over time.

Bring on the raspberry, prickly pear, and blueberry Buddha's Brew blends

 

I have never tried Kombucha so I couldn't tell what it brought to the blend but the beer was awesome. Definitely up there with Boxers and Das batch 1 for the best Jester King sours. FWIW it reminded me of Freetail Ananke.

 

Kombucha tastes like vinegary tasting tea. To me, Buddhas Brew tasted like a simple, yet refreshing wheat beer like Boulevard Wheat, with signature Jester King tartness, and a little Kombucha thrown in.

 

Crooked Stave blended their Surette Riserva with Grape Kombucha. I really liked when I had it last month.

CM Westgate has it at the beer counter as of 8:30AM this morning.

 

Missed you by 15 min.

 

I was probably too busy "Azzying" the Stone 12.21.12 to notice anyways

BTW: DAMN is their Biscuit, Egg, and Ham sandwich good there.

 

Whip-In actually had some Buddha's in the cooler last night... no idea if its still there (and yes I realize this isn't much help)

 

When I say "base beer" I'm saying I would love to try the 100% oak fermented sour wheat beer, before it is blended with Kombucha.

 

Gotcha

 

RU-55 was pretty tasty. I enjoyed it much more than Boxers.

I enjoyed Bonnie as well.

 

That makes me want to try RU-55 now.

 

Petrol had a cask on yesterday. Zero carb but it tasted very good. I hope the bottle conditioning helps build some CO2.

 

Flat cask? Something must have been wrong.
