    Picked up my first 6-pack of 2012 today. Surprised to see it (as I hadn't seen anything on here about it) and happy to have it back (since they passed on brewing it in 2011).

    Anyways, here's to good drinking :slight_smile:

    Bought 3-6 packs yesterday. My first time having it. It was good. Gotta drink a few more to see if it beats Sucks though.

    One probably the most overrated beer I've seen on here. Was so thrilled about Lagunitas Sucks last year.

    Picked up a 6 pack yesterday to try it for the first time. Sucks wins....day time a close second. shugga was good, but not on the same level as sucks and day time.

    I got the last 4 they had at Oliver Ts, only place I saw it but honest only place I've looked lately too. I tried it and yes its good, but I guess I was expecting it to be sweeter and I don't know if I pick up any brown sugar, not sure if your supposed to based on the reviews though. Still definitely solid and worth picking up its not insanely expensive or anything

    Has anyone aged brown shugga? Does it turn into a sugary mess?

    I picked some up earlier today, and just finished my first bottle...not at all what I was expecting...

    I was expecting it to be A LOT sweeter. Instead, I got a pretty hoppy brew with just a slight hint of brown sugar, mostly in the nose. Still pretty good, but I think I'll sit on the rest for awhile to see if the hops die down and the sugar comes out more

    Picked some up on Wednesday night. Andy's Crossroads had 4-5 cases. Was sitting back by their secondary craft section.
