    I have to say, I don’t think there’s any lactose in this one.

    The typical HB overly sweet taste was definitely dialed down with this one.

    Not sure what thread this belongs in but for any kegerator people Beer on the Wall in park ridge has 1/6 barrels of mirrorball as well as some phase 3 kegs and other goodies. I grabbed a tavern cut but didn’t ask if they any more

    Tavern cut was 177 which isn’t a great deal per se but there’s never ever an opportunity to get their stuff in kegs and it’s my favorite hb beer. They have pricing and kegs available on google doc on website and will curbside load keg in your car

    They always make their lager offerings sound very interesting but I've generally been let down by them

    Instead of truck chasing, now we just sit around until it’s available to order online!

    Had a regular like 6 months after canning. Besides the chucks which eventually settled at the bottom it was great! Hops actually held up (I blame the lactose).

    Gonna do a blind taste test Saturday with blazed orange and orange cream marbles from more. We shall see who is the victor
