    Has anyone tried this? Very interesting - just a tad sweet. Very fruity. I need to try another because my taste buds were a bit off when I tried the first one. Possibly sweeter than I like. I've had some good Frost - especially on tap. Some very good bottles and some so/so - much like early day Foley Brothers (who have straightened their problems out nicely).

    There's potential with this brewery.

    I like it. I've had most of their IPA/PA/DIPA offerings. The only one I don't like is IIPA.

    Had Frost's Lush DIPA last night thanks to a friend bringing me one from his VT trip and I was really digging this beer. Had a nice unfiltered haze, decent nose, and the taste and mouthfeel were really nice. Since I live close to Treehouse I get pretty spoiled with fresh IPA's but this was right up there with some of my favorites.

    One of my favorite DIPA from Vermont. Still a little bit underrated with all the other big hoppy cannons from the area

    I had it on tap at Blackback recently and thought it was very good. Picked up a bottle at CBC-Waterbury right after. I grabbed a Foley Bros Prospect as well and that beer was at another level. Nice to see more and more great DIPA options

    I'd recommend trying their recent LUSH X 2 Research Series. It may be the best LUSH to date.

    I recently read an article that designated Frost as the most underrated brewery in VT. How readily available are Frost's bottled offerings? I've never seen any offered for trade on the FT:ISO board, but would love to get my hands on some. I've had Heady T and a handful of Treehouse beers (all wonderful), and definitely hold VT breweries in high regard.

    Lush is great. Never had anything else. But my VT buddy has been VERY HIGH on Foam Brewers lately.

    Frost tends to make deliveries on Fridays in the Burlington area. Everything is 22oz bottles,roughly$7-$9 a bottle, Lush and other dipas move the fastest but everything tends to stick around for 3-4 days, at least for now.

    Had Lush a few weeks ago great beer well worth the purchase. My brother hit Beverage Baron after Mon Heady drop and left town before SoS. Clerk suggested Frost I thought it was a great NE IPA.

    My favorite Frosts are the Research Series Double Dry Hopped, they're fruity but dry at the same time. Drinking a Plush now. I liked the Lush double dry hopped a bit better, but definitely enjoying this one.
