    I really hope Muther Brain is better from the bottle than tap. On tap, I couldn't figure out why anyone would think it's better than the W6 BA Old Ale.

    I've only had a tiny sample of the W6 BA Olde Ale while on a tour once, so I can't really say how it compares.

    My wife tried more of the W6 one and did not like it. She tried a sip of Muther Brain last night and said it tasted just like the W6 Olde Ale. She's not much of a beer drinker, so that may not mean anything to anyone.

    Looks like the Country Boy - Alpha Experiment Mosiaic bottle will be released this Saturday. Anyone ever have this version? The single hop series is usually really good. Had a couple different ones but never the Mosaic. Wish this was canned :/.

    It's good. I prefer the Citra version. 750s of IPAs just doesn't appeal to me. Maybe if they're $8.

    I totally agree with the 750s. Thats a good bit of beer and it doesn't make sense. My worry is that this beer is similar to Country Western IV minus the grapefruit. Its a good beer and I really enjoyed it but I don't want to pay 10 bucks for one bottle anymore.

    ^ I have been wondering too but we here in Lexington haven't got it yet :/. Want that beer though. Hopefully end of this week, early next week!

    Are there any good local Facebook pages, Twitter accounts, Instagrams, or websites I should follow to be more up to date about who has new good bottles around Kentucky? I follow a few things (Holy Grale and LBS Facebook/Twitter, Keg Liquors website), but feel like I miss out on a lot of things around the state.

    I would follow Louisville beer store in Facebook/Twitter, if anything, lexbeerscene.com is really good too with events in Lexington. I tend to pay attention to this forum as people post things constantly. I usually follow Twitter and Facebook of my favorite shops. They tend to post pics and updates on there.

    I hope puff makes it here soon!

    Damnit! I hate how certain stores end up posting stuff on different social media. Saw Beer Trappe had Puff on Tuesday after I called and asked. They don't post it on Facebook but posted it on Twitter. Damn you social media!

    I hate trying to track all of this stuff on FB and Twitter. Kentucky needs to get better at BeerMenus.

    In regards to The Breury coming to Kentucky.... Can't wait to spend 20+ bucks for a 750 of beer :/. All for great beer and The Breury makes great, but the prices are killing me!

    Did country boy announce the price of the alpha experiment? If it's 8.99, I'm buying it but I can't do another 10+ bottle. Just had some heller heaven and that beer is better than last year and that beer was well liked by myself.

    Then don't buy their beer?

    I probably won't buy many of their beers. I guess my point is that 22 oz and 750s are overly expensive in the beer world. Why one bottle needs to be $10+ when I can get a six pack for around the same price is a little disconcerting. I know it is an on going problem and one that won't be stopped anytime soon.

    Spoke to ATG on Facebook yesterday. The truck for Chicago is on its way bearing 70K goodness! They told me to expect to see it in the area late next week or early the week after.

    Anyone have any talk on the single mosaic alpha experiment? Saw it was 7.99 but picked up some Sixpoint Puff instead. Just curious.
