    It's too damn spicy, thought it was terrible and I love pepper beers. Interested to hear what others think. Grapefruit is fantastic.

    Any thoughts on the Indra-Kuninindra? I picked that up with a sixer of the grapefruit and all I saw was stout. After seeing the brewing ingrediants I am sufficiently shook

    That sucks, was just there yesterday and asked if they had any and the guy told me it came out months ago and they didn't.

    It seems to have mixed reviews. I had heard about it before I bought one, so I had a heads up as to what's in it. I also really like spicy stouts, curry and coconut, so I'm pretty excited to try it.

    Yeah, it definitely seems like its an extremely polarizing beer. Some of the reviews on here are actually pretty funny. I really like spicy food, indian food, and coconuts so I don't see myself hating it. Very very excited to try the grapefruit sculpin too. I had the regular sculpin a few weeks ago for the first time and thought it was a typical upper middle range IPA. Heard this is 10x better. Probably need to try the regular again, it was a few beers deep into a tasting with buddies.

    Picked up a sixer at Total Wine in Cary, NC. They had just received a few cases earlier today. Excited to try it for the first time!

    Grapefruit has hit NOVA at least 3 times in the last few months that I can recall, and Habanero is around right now. We're finally getting Victory at Sea somewhat regularly too. All of these pretty much disappear from most stores not long after it arrives. I've only heard of two cases of Indra Kunindra showing up within the last two weeks. That typically will be around a little longer because of its pretty unusual ingredients, and that most people around here haven't ever seen/heard of it.

    I liked GS a lot at first, but after the second and third times, I couldn't shake this Sculpin w/ Orange Fanta flavor. Not at all saying don't try it, I'm sure my taste buds are on the fritz :slight_frown:. Habanero though, I'll take it ALL! (...that's what sh... nevermind :rolling_eyes:).

    Whoa, I've never seen it for less than $3 each, with TW around my area charging $4. As for Habanero Sculpin, I had it on draft the other day and couldn't finish the pint. I like spicy but it was a little much.

    Grabbed a 6 at Whole Foods in Raleigh this morning when I went in to get my coffee. They had Habanero Sculpin too. Said both were getting low though. Had it in the back, have to ask.

    Wade. Although the other one might have it too I would think.

    Cool. I'll swing by after work today and ask. Thanks for the heads-up.

    Ridgewood also has it on tap now if you wanted to knock one back on draft. I know I will be doing so after work!
