I've had everything that they can and gets shipped here also another that was on tap. The head brewer came out of Wisconsin and work with the guy that would start Ale Asylum. They both brewed at the Angelic in Madison.

Cool story about this beer--it's aged on poplar wood, from a tree that fell in Richmond during Hurricane Isabel

Wow, that's not good at all Dave. Sorry to hear this. Do they brew Peruvian Morning with coffee?

Jbailey 05-26-2012 08:59 AM

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 
Not sure when but they add coffee to it.

I haven't found out what they are doing with the recall. Might write them an email and see what they will do. Got a case and a half that's not drinkable now. I'm sure a few might be but I don't want to keep dumping bottles to find a good one.

Hopefully they make it right for you. I remember when Oakshire released their Hellshire II beer earlier this year, it was infected as well. I think they refunded all the people that bought it though.

What do you think? I was pissed off about this one. $14 for a 4 pack is crazy. This is a $2 beer at very best. Damn near exactly like Maui Brewing Big Swell IPA.

Since you have the Stone Brewing Gargoyle in your avatar, you obviously have good taste.

You hit the nail on the head. Basically the long and short of it. I haven't seen the normal beer guy around I talk to at the liquor store, so some other dude was pushing these hard. Apparently they sold out quick and people loved them :rolleyes:

So anyways I snag 2 of them because I don't know the guy and don't usually trust people who's tastes I haven't verified. The first one I drank a few days after I bought it. It was passable as an IPA but that's about it, nothing great....I didn't want to finish it but beer is beer. Too dry, tastes too "pine-y".

So now I'm sitting here bored and whatnot about 2 months later, this one is no better. Nothing worth buying once even to try. I'll finish it but yeah disappointed, especially since I absolutely love their Ten-Fidy. Damn good beer for $4.

This, not so much

Good to know I am not so much in the minority. I agree it is very dry.

Seriously, I am still mad about this one and have sworn off anything from Oskar Blues for a good long while. When you are commanding $3-$4 a beer it better be fan-effing-tastic. Hell, even Bells Hopslam was barely that much. I used to be a big fan of Dales Pale, but the Modus Hoperandi from Ska Brewing is way better for less cash.

I need another Lagunitas Maximus IPA.....

Can't find many of those beers here, really limited on IPA's since DFH pulled out. Kind of got sick of IPAs anyways. More of a Stout/Quad guy anyways.

I did however enjoy Dreadnaught, 90 minute IPA and 120 Minute IPA.

Give Ten-Fidy a try though if you haven't. Considering most Stouts get pricey, I'd say it's quite good for $4.
