    Just swung by Comrade and got a half growler of Superpower and Honeyman V. Had a taster of Honeyman VI while I waited. Great success.

    Any input on how VI is tasting?

    I've never had Superpower or any of the other Honeymans (Honeymen?) so I have no frame of reference, but it was fantastic. Definitely has a tropical fruit punch to it, but very well balanced overall!

    Just grabbed growlers of Honeyman 5 and 6. Decided to have them throw in a growler of Super Power while they were at it. You know, for science :rolling_eyes:

    I hit 4 noses today. I had the proboscis pale ale and the make my day session. Really enjoyed both. The pale is definitely more of an ipa than pale which is great. I liked the session more I think.

    The bad for me. They do have 6 packs to go. But , $11.50 for the session and $12.50 for the pale was a bit much imo..

    Like liquid.....uh....good stuff? A bit more tropical than 5, perhaps a touch of lemon, too.

    They've been selling sixers of 4 Noses at Superior for $6.99 the last week or so, but I think the sale ended on Tuesday. Still, they're only $8.99 or so regularly. They probably bump it up at the brewery.

    I thought it was delicious, but the brewery version really had that extra pop. Maybe just fresher when I had it. Anyways well worth a visit up there. Some really great one-offs.

    I personally was underwhelmed by the Upslope CItra Pale Ale. A little too malty for my preference though my wife really enjoyed it. Would have liked to try the brewery version with extra pop. I really preferred the Grunion I had before it for what it's worth.

    I didn't get a chance to try them all, I was hoping to try Alpha 4, but when we went on Saturday night they were out. The Superpower really stuck out in my mind, I loved that beer. As always, great things going on in Colorado. Cheers.

    I grabbed a single of 4 Noses .44 Magnum at Hazel's today. Got to say Wow. Why wow you ask? This is the sweetest beer I have ever tasted.well maybe not southern tier creme Brule sweet but different for an iipa. Not a chance of finishing this.
