    Just saw that Victory is brewing a harvest ale this year. Apparently releasing soon. Looking forward to this. 2015's was good. But I thought the 2014 batch was better (and much less expensive). A great time of year for hop heads!

    It's out today. I grabbed a case in the retail shop and Johnny told me it was back to 2014 form.

    Brother in law works at victory and he snagged me a four pack. Can't wait to drink today while watching the birds.

    Well the game sucked, but how was the beer?

    I don't think any drink could be as bad as the Eagles looked. That was the steel reserve of football teams yesterday....

    That beer and the food were the only things that made that game bearable, that was a quick fall from grace for our eagles.

    I saw it release last Thursday, and by Saturday afternoon there were no cases at Parkesburg. Had to settle for a few crowlers. Should trickle into the distributors by now though... and it's pretty damn good this year!

    So does this beer exist outside the brewery this year? Can't believe an hour away from the brewery we don't have it on shelves yet
