    damn anyone know where i can get this in LA?

    i had good results putting a year on a few of them. founded it to be particularly tangy, but i hadn't seen anyone speak of it the same way.

    Had this a week ago. Wasn't a fan. Too similar to other Laguinatas beers. Nothing that stood out to me. Wouldn't rebuy if the beer was available year round.

    Is this one to throw in the cellar and age or drink fresh?

    I just had it for the first time and I freaking loved it! Such a delicious beer and I can't wait to see what it tastes like when I age it

    Nice beer. Very Nasferatu'esque.

    Dont drink 5 of these over a 4 hour period... Sweet lord. Im a pretty big guy, and ate before I started enjoying them. I wouldnt drive after 2 of these. By the way, anyone who says they don't like these.... you don't like craft beer.

    Saw a case today for the first time ever in New Hampshire and I now am the proud owner of a case of Brown Shugga. Easiest drinking almost 10% ever and at $41 a case a great deal.
