New to Ohio (2015)

This is literally just a few pages back with no one calling it out:

Why did no one say anything -- because it's harmless.

The reason you called out the "blog" above, is because he was critical of a Fat Head's beer -- just say it.

We're all gonna make it if someone occasionally posts a small review here and there, it's a non-issue.

Back to new stuff in Ohio...

 

HAHAHA he is the self appointed "boss"....

 

Seriously, what's up with GL? Had a bottle of Nosferatu and I could barely finish it.

 

So this is a thing now? I haven't had anything since Erie Monster which may or may not have been different (could be my palate), but this seems to be a trend...

 

Been hearing about a quality drop from them since Chillwave this year. Personally I loved it, but a lot of people said it tasted off. Heard basically no good things about Oktoberfest, Lake Erie Monster, and Nosferatu this year.

 

Not good. I didn't think Chillwave was bad at all, but Lake Erie Monster was not what I remembered at all. Never went for Nosferatu or Oktoberfest, so I'll have to withhold further judgment for Christmas Ale.

 

I enjoyed Chillwave, I gave up on Lake Erie Monster after last years batch tasted like straight apple juice. Had a bottle of Oktoberfest last weekend and it was bad, not sure what the deal is.

Must be the new labels.

 

I didn't go to the previous Wolf's Ridge release. For those who went, how early do I need to show up? How smoothly does it run? Any other suggestions?

 

Showed up two hours after the start time, got bottles after waiting 20-30 min. I was probably one of the last ones there. Didn't get a second allotment, but wasn't interested in another one anyways. Left after having a beer.

 

Not on the specialty one-offs. At this time we're too small to make a ton of those beers so growlers are only available on the regular lineup for now.

 

Very well done beer release today. Got in as it opened, grabbed a flight and ate brunch in the restaurant...wow it was good.

Bottle buying was super organized. My wife who is definitely not in the beer scene was really impressed. Props on the Cinnamon Toast Brunch as well. Really enjoyed that one

 

Another great release at Wolf's Ridge. Very interesting tap list and cask offerings as well as good food available over on the restaurant side. My second one I've been to and looking forward to the next!

 

Echoing the previous opinions. Great work all around at Wolfs Ridge today. Awesome food at the restaurant, awesome and friendly staff on both sides, amazing drafts, and very organized bottle sale. It was my first time visiting and was really impressed. Looking forward to swing by again soon and the next release.

 

Highlights- IPA cask, Cap'n Brunch, Cinnamon Toast Brunch. Bottle sales nice and quick. Cheers.

 

Any chance there will be bottles left on Tuesday at Wolf's Ridge?

 

Probably. We were pretty conservative on the limit so there are a couple cases of each left as of now.

 

How was the Daybreak with Crunchberry cereal? Talked to one of the brewers at the Brew Fest and he wasn't sure what to expect out of it.

 

I was really impressed. It was like when you drink the milk at the bottom of your Crunchberries bowl, except instead of milk...beer.

 

Couple questions for you Ohio folks. Is White Rajah still seasonal like BA suggests, or is it year round now? If it's available now, what are the bottling dates you have seen as of late? I believe they still write the bottle date in black marker on the case.

 

Year-round. Only way to check bottle dates is if the cases are there and you can see, because that's where they are marked.
