    Holy shit, I was not expecting this to be as good as it is. Wow, really really pleased. I'm going to be buying lots more of this to save while it's still around.

    This is easily the best beer I have drank in the shower from the bottle. Philadelphia Brewing Shackamaximum.

    I'm going to sit on at least one bottle. It seems like there's some for improvement.

    I keep giving them chances, but at some point I've got to draw the line. I like a select few of their beers - the vast majority of which are collaborations. What does it say about a brewery when your only good beers are collaborations?

    Am I the only person who thinks Stone is the most overrated brewery in existence?

    No you are not. I think all of their beers are just beer.

    Boy, you're really pushing the boundaries of that paycheck splurging 2-3.99 on that Name Tag/Simpler Times...

    ...I kid. And for what it's worth, I think those two are rather respectable beers for what they are. Bland crap though they may be, I think they're respectable. And underappreciated.

    I humbly agree with you, as I sip on the last of it.
    Cheers, dude! I enjoy your well-written thought out reviews!
