    All their beers are supposed to be sessionable beers..at least in canned form.

    I hope that Anderson Valley approval is not an indication that we're going to start seeing pumpkin beers 5 months before Halloween

    We had Oktoberfest beers last spring. They didn't actually hit the market until September but the process for TABC label approvals is a bitch so the smarter breweries send label approvals early.

    A shot in the dark, but I will go ahead and ask- Has anyone seen Dogfish head 120 on shelves in the Houston area.

    Specs Smith st. tweeted a week ago that they had a lot just sitting around on the shelf. I picked up a bottle at my local HEB, also just sitting on the shelf.

    I know this was from last month but I wanted to revisit the No Label Cherry Sour and that thread is closed.

    I tried it last night and was extremely impressed. It's got a great amount of tartness without overdoing it, a nice cherry characteristic that doesn't taste medicinal or syrupy, and a good complexity in feel and taste.

    So whoever it was that said that the idea made them cringe: prepare to be surprised. This one was delicious.

    I missed it at Specs last week when I looked and haven't seen it anywhere else.

    Anyone know when Mirror Mirror will hit the Austin area? I saw on another thread someone said yesterday but haven't seen any anywhere. Would really like to snag a bottle or two.

    I agree 100%. Nice refreshing, I could easily pound several without looking back.

    My beer guy said yesterday as well... Didn't come in, though. He's told me today now, but I haven't heard from him yet (he usually gets shipments in around 11 am).

    So, in true Deschutes form... Next week?

    You might know this already but it showed up in Dallas yesterday so I'd assume soon where you are.

    Where have you called?/Live? The Deschutes website lists several places... including a lot that are not Specs, TW, Cen Mrkt, and WF

    I was able to get a bunch of Mirror Mirror bottles up here in Dallas. Let me know if some one wants to trade for some.
