    PiaPT(not BA version), Stone epic 020202 are a couple that come to my mind. They may or may not be good but they are rare because they r the first in an impressive vertical. Just my 2 cents.

    There is a list as ixodus sent it to me although I don't have on my phone to share.

    My Jew brews are 48 bottle batches though and have had great reviews!!

    It is the most important thing why people do not spend the money to try this. I do, because well, you know, I do support the country I love. But man I do see what you are saying. I do not want to make any silly excuses on why, but again B. United International and Matthias Neidhart are doing the best they can to reduce costs. I can not say enough about their courage in what they are doing.

    I do liken this Xyuayu to a BCBS, but in barley wine fashion instead of stout. I do enjoy it and it was challenging!

    A bottle of this beer costs $18 at Total Wine. There is nothing special about it from what I can tell. That is ridiculous.

    Well, now there is nothing I can say to make you even enjoy it, EVEN if I was to send this to from NJ. I mean, if I may say respectfully because I do not know, if you do not believe in Italian craft then I understood 100 percent. The only thing I can say from my stand point of respect is knowing how passionate and respectful we are in the beer traditions of the countries around Italy. As stated above, the relationships of the Italian brewers and Belgian brewers is stronger then you realize.

    And again some of this Italian beer is made with ingredients so foreign
    to an American palate or other wise, that it may be off putting to you.

    This is the chinotto, a type of orange that grows in Tuscany, Calabria, Sicily, as well as Malta and Libya. This is such a genius ingredient to use in place of the classic orange in saisons. Would you not agree that is humbly a great ideal and makes it Italian and special for the palate?

    "...stereotypes of Italians in all faucets of life"? Is this an all Italians are plumbers pun?
    Also, what is this beer? Apparently I can't read the label well enough to find it. Looks like "Ses Nette" or possibly "Ses Nuette" but not seeing anything by either name on BA.

    I don't believe I have had the opportunity to review any of the Jew Brews. ISO :slight_smile:

    Hardywood Gingerbread Stout and Hunapuh's come most immediately to mind.

    Yeah I did not think of that pun! No, the beer is Piccolo Sessonette.

    Jew Brew is fantastic. Some of the best Berliners out there. they are better then Peg's, better then 1809, hell they are better then any commercial example I have ever tasted. His dubbel will make you think you are in a Belgian Abbey (or is it a brewing synagogue?) and the IPAs will cure anyone's hop cravings. Dan's descriptions on the labels are spot on and the back stories to the names of each beer are a nice insight into the thought and care that went into each beer.
