    Isn't the cloudberry one an exclusive for a Sweish restaurant? Could be I'm talking out my ass again.

    I am sure you realize thee is no actual price of admission to DC :wink:

    You mean Soleil a Minute? Shit, I confused cloudberries with gooseberries. Soleil is an absolute monster, it is world class and then some. Emptied a bomber if that by myself last summer... it's made for Stockholm's Akkurat, maybe the best beer bar in the world...

    Seems like the admission is steep as balls... Cantillon all over the place... :stuck_out_tongue:

    Finally got my hands on one of these Stone bombers I've seen some of you drinking... Haven't spotted this year's anniversary ale, but this is something, anyway - got a Metallica nod in the name and some Cthulhu-looking tentacles on the label, so count me in... Don't see a bottling date, and while I figure I'm probably a little late to the party, it shouldn't be too big a deal... 8% abv...

    An international collab, working with Beavertown from London, England, and Garage Project from Wellington, NZ, it features kiwi, yuzu, and habanero...

    No, not the bird - though they are native to New Zealand...

    Let's just hope they meant the fruits...

    Obviously, a fruit-forward brew (bonus points if you knew peppers are fruits, too) - don't know if I can distinguish yuzu and kiwi as distinct flavors per se - kinda muddled together with the fruit impressions from the other ingredients, and then get a quick tickle from the peppery heat. Moderately sweet, mildly bitter but it does have something of a coating shellac on the tongue, broken up by that tingle of habanero. Smooth, medium-weight feel...

    Good stuff - glad I got a bottle...

    And of course...



    \m/ Cheers \m/

    I must also say, that the truck only has 180k miles, which is really only 60k in Land Cruiser miles. Just getting broken in!

    Sounds great. Bring a few of those, and I'll introduce you to our local favorite: Yuengling.

    Feeling like I should post a beer at least every once in a while...

    It finally feels like Fall. Time for a Schwartzbier. I'm sorry, fellow BA's but you average rating of this is too low. This may be the best Schwartzbier I've had!
