    Bittersweet Lenny's R.I.P.A. is pretty good, however I prefer SN Ruthless Rye any given day. And I have a Jewbelation Sweet 16 on its way to me through the mail, should be a good I'd say. Will let you know once I try it! I would stick to the barrel aged ones and the special/rare ones IMO. Cheers!

    I've only had the Messiah and for that style I liked it better than most on here.

    May the Schmaltz be with you!

    Jewbelation 16 is fantastic. Lenny's RIPA is very good too.

    Lenny's RIPA is very malt forward. Still good but not ideal imo

    Too bad they don't have the BA Human Blockhead. That beer is crazy tasty!

    Bittersweet Lenny's RIPA is awesome, I love that stuff.. it's criminally underrated. I didn't like Messiah, and I love nut brown ales..

    I think Shmaltz is very solid and under-rated. They need a little love.

    One of my all-time favorite beers. Insanely underrated. Anyone who can find a bottle should grab it.

    Also another vote for Lenny's. Shmaltz is an extremely good brewery in my opinion, lots of interesting and delicious brews.

    Great brewery with great beers, but not for hop-heads. The owners palate tends to be more malt-forward, even for their hoppy styles. The anniversary beers are incredible and probably some of the best cost/quality ratio on the market. If Sweet 16 came from Founder's or Firestone Walker, that shit would be $29.99, easy, and from Schmaltz, I got it for $9.49.

    The two Ive had that I remember (I had the Pilsner but dont really recall it too clearly) The 12th anniversary was busy and didnt mesh, and Funky Jewbilation I just couldnt figure out.
