    Not sure what's up next.

    But I do know SDH will be on tap in the next few weeks. And hopefully this winter they'll can a stout.

    Smokescreens & Oil Slicks? That would be awesome. That stuff was fantastic.

    Speaking of OH stouts... I still have my two bottles of the Red Wine Barrel Aged Stout... (or are we never to speak of that again?).

    Has anyone opened one lately? Has it gotten any better with some time?

    I sent one recently to a regular trader to fill a spot in a shipper. He told me I should have just sent a bud light instead.

    Anyone else have any issues with some hop showers cans? I had two that were absolutely off. Usually an incredible beer. I'll try another tonight and see.

    hm. i've only opened one can so far, and it did seem different from the last batch, which was hazy and had a thicker body to it. i had attributed it to the late hour and my inebriation.

    Looks like something Rosé barrel aged is in the works with 3 Stars Brewing in DC:

    Off in what way? Drinking one now and I'm noticing a little sharpness, but nothing that off about it.

    I don't know about absolutely off, but one or two iterations ago was my favorite HS to date.

    I'm sure more research is needed though!

    Brewery only for cans and on draft in the area. Trading will be your best way to get some. Send me a message.

    I think the nose on this Amarillo is my favorite of all their beer!

    I might be visiting Wednesday to snag another 4 pack or so if any is left...

    If they don't have cans when you get there, they'll def have growlers of it. :slight_smile:

    I would be all for growlers of this from time to time if it isn't being canned regularly, but I am confused by the fact that 64 oz of growler fill at OH is usually more expensive than 64oz of cans (ie a 4 pack). Is it just economies of scale and a difference in batch sizes?
