Hop Butcher (2019)

Yeah I find it really difficult to even enjoy the end of a 16oz can of this type of beer. I can't imagine needing a whole case of it.

 

I suspect I could put this whole hype thing to rest if I find a can of it....

 

Nice day for a walk to the South Loop to get my HB fix for this week

 

Just grabbed a 4 pack of Blazed Orange Milkshake from Printers Row. They had maybe a case or so left.

 

Binnys Grand come and gone?

 

Binnys AH received a case of the milkshake and the pale ale. Been supporting these guys for years and today was the first time I ever scored a 4 pack of their milkshakes. Good luck everyone, you're gonna need it

 

dude at mikerphone bought 3 cases of milkshake at tiffanys yesterday. kids are nuts.

 

Those people aren't drinking them all themselves.

 

Maybe they should raise their prices so it doesn’t sell out so fast...

 

Capone's still had about 8 cases left when I was there an hour ago

 

Don't anger the mules & profiteers

 

2.5 cases of BOM at bottles and cans. About 8-9 cases of waves

 

So, I’m not a big fan of milkshake IPAs. But I happened to be stop into my new (to me since I just moved to Portage Park) Binny’s, and saw they had some BOM in the shelf. I’ve been told in here that I should try it even if I’m not a fan of milkshakes. So I bought a pack.

Having my first right now. I wouldn’t seek it out, as it’s not a style a want to drink regularly. But I will agree it’s damn good, and easily the best I’ve had. So kudos to them.

Just don’t turn it green...

 

Finally got a 4 pack of BOM and tried it. I don’t ever need to try another milkshake ipa. This style does not appeal to me. I would be much happier drinking a hop butcher hazy while eating a dreamiscle than drinking BOM. Why don’t they give this milk shake treatment to a milk stout where it will be more appropriate?

 

Agree. BOM is a fun beer. It's a cool one to share with a non beer lover.

 

Waveburst fucking rules.

 

Some idiot on untappd was drinking one in a sauna lol

 

Agree. So much flavor for a 5.75% beer. Wish they did more at that ABV.

 

It smells like orange juice but then the flavor is a completely different tropical/citrus mix. Super duper impressed. Probably a top 5 HB beer for me.
