If you are a fan of Quads like I am, you should like it. I havent had a bad Allagash brew yet, and this is one of the Top ones.
If you are new to Quads and like this one after trying it. Get ahold of St Bernardus Abt 12, its the best Quad IMHO!

Dixie Blackened Voodoo lager. Pretty tasty. Kind of reminds me of NewCastle a little bit.

Lagunitas Undercover Investigation Shut-Down Ale

http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/i...hutdownAle.jpg

This wasn't a bad beer, but it reminded me too much of what my homebrew tastes like if I'm not too worried about a recipe, and just see how much malt & hops I can throw together. This is listed as an American Strong Ale: 9% ABV, 72 IBU. Yep, that's pretty much how I brew.... The final product is fruity sweet with a nice, citrusy hop bite. Drinkable, but unremarkable.

After having a number of Lagunitas' brews, I get the feeling that these guys are more interested in edgy, tongue-in-cheek marketing than they are in brewing outstanding beer. I've been brewing for over 15 years, and I swear that my own "award winning" home brew is just as good, if not better in certain styles. They have some drinkable ales, but it seems like they put more effort into coming-up with creative stuff to put on their labels. At nearly $10 a sixpack, I think they're kind of like the Gurkha of the microbrew world. :2

I gotta agree with you. I think they are too focused on coming up with funny names and not the beers.
That being said I really enjoy the Sirius and Hairy Eyeball

North Coast Old No. 38 Stout.
These are on clearance at my local liquor store for $3.99 a six pack and worth every penny!
