    Anyone else think Troeg's nailed it with this one? Perpetual, Blizzard of Hops, Javahead, and a scratch series Chocolate Stout. Looking forward to picking up a case of it.

    There's not an immediate thought of: how do I give away six of the one I don't like. Solid case; will probably pick one up.

    Has this hit stores yet? I haven't seen it in DE.

    Looking forward to picking this up in the Philly/South Jersey area. I drink more Perpetual than any other beer, Javahead is another favorite and I'm looking forward to trying the other two.

    Troegs newsletter states Troegenator instead of JavaHead in Anthology 12-packs. is it different for 24-packs?

    That is a great question. I noticed on their website, in the description they state JavaHead is in the sampler. But the sampler packaging shows Troegenator isntead of JavaHead.

    Saw this afternoon that Troegenator is in the previous anthology (with Hop Knife) and wonder if they'd include the same unique beer, back-to-back.

    I had the Chocolate Stout at a beerfest a few months back, it was tasty.

    To be more seasonally appropriate, I would swap in Troegenator for Perpetual. Or better still, bring back Rugged Trail Brown Ale!

    I had the same thought, but the monthly email that came out on Friday does say Troegenator, and not Java Head

    Well, I do like Troegenator better than JavaHead. This would be even better.

    Website says Perpetual, Troegenator, Blizzard of Hops, Chocolate Stout:

    http://www.troegs.com/sampler-pack/anthology-winter-sampler/

    Solid pack, will definitely be picking one up! The mixed winter seasonal game has been pretty solid already this year with quite a few breweries and this is definitely no exception.

    I was able to sample the Chocolate Stout last night. I loved it. I am a bit biased since I live 10 mins. From Troegs, but this beer is delicious.

    Enjoyed it myself. Have been going pretty IPA heavy in recent weeks and this was a proper reprieve. Tasty; nice mouthfeel.
