    Interesting. When I had it on tap last night it said 10.5%, and the listing has it at 10...???
    I first got to try it a couple months ago with @SomethingClever at a bottle share. The first thing that I noticed is how the bacon was significantly less noticeable than the original MBCP, and I thought the coffee seemed faint too, but it was a year old bottle. Last night I got the same amount of coffee though. Not sure if it is a fresh keg or one they have been sitting on. Still phenomenal though. Right behind CBS.
    Side note. They are doing crowler fills for $25:grimacing: Corrext me if I am wrong Floridians, but that isn't far off the bomber price is it? Also, I paid $15 for a 10oz pour:astonished: Should have poured my own back at the condo

    I want to say the bomber goes for around $20. They may still have some at Total Wine in Jax; it moves pretty slow.

    I agree with the bacon observation, too; I get very little, if any, from Wide Awake. MBCP on the other hand, has a definite smokey and salty component to it (the one time I was fortunate enough to try it, anyway).

    That looks AWESOME! You are one lucky guy!

    My wife made me some Brioche French Toast (which I had made for her on Mother's Day), they were delicious. It's been a great weekend so far, as I got to see Chano Dominguez (Jazz/Flamenco pianist), the final Eschenbach conducted concert here in DC (Beethoven's 9th! I had goose bumps throughout the performance! The man got a straight 15 minute standing ovation! Very well deserved in my opinion). Today will be going out to DC Jazz festival at The Yard (for nine hours, so I am making sure I properly hydrate! :grinning: I wouldn't mind if the Bad Brains showed up! :grinning:)

    Cheers you all! I was debating on if I could post this in NBS. Technically no but I had to review this beer again! Plus I am drinking it now. =)

    A big part of BA is deciding whether to a review a beer again. I would say to review it again is one thing, but again and again is another. The best reason to do another review is if something is really different. You could be going on a memory and of course if you disliked the beer the first time . I love Jack's Abby. I even went there. I had a terrible bottle of their pilsner and now I have good 16 oz can. I think it's not the same and I would like to review it again. New beer Sunday is here.

    This beer is the definition of crisp. It is only as cool as the water and that does not just mean temperature. I wonder if Jack's Abby treated the water for this beer? It's also a statement on the hops presence. The hops are just cool, just sweet with herbal. The malt is biscuity and dry. Light bubble with a light bite and it is malty to finish with a very delicate sense and again a crisp bitterness. Pepper is like white pepper and the spice is a tickle on the palate. Fresh floral, crisp with a sweet hop herbal that fades into bitterness. This was outstanding !
