Got a chance to speak with one of the distributors. According to him all of the new markets will be open to the limited editions such as KBS as well.

Lagunitas :banger

I'm sure it's in this thread (multiple times) but I finally got a hold of a six pack up in Chicago at Trader Joes --- ROCKIN!!!

Lagunitas what?
Favorites I've had so far are Hop Stoopid, Maximus and Lucky 13...


Opened up a bottle of Brux tonight. Really good. Have to admit I was scared to try it - first wild I've had. Seems really similar to Saison Dupont though. I would have to try them side by side but I'm not sure I would continue to pay 60% more than Dupont...

Is the Sam Adams Oktoberfest any good this year? It was horrible in 2010 and barely passable last year.

Hmmm...the Stone looks good. I just started stocking up on stouts/porters. Should be cool enough by Christmas to drink them around here.

Depends on what you like.. I have enjoyed them every year, although, you are correct, 2010 was not that great. I didn't mind 2011, and 2012 is pretty darn good, IMHO.

It was very good, just a hint of the peppers and nice smokiness.

I may pickup a 6er. In general, I think it is a very bad example of the Oktoberfest style (not as bad as Harpoon, though), but is usually decent in its own right.

Shipyard Pumpkinhead = a tad bit too much Cinnamon but good
Schlafly Pumpkin = This usually is my favorite pumpkin, but this years taste like too much clove. Maybe because it is too fresh.

I've been sampling the home-brews I made earlier this year. Belgian Stout has finally become something I want to drink, and the others are still good.

Re: What beers are you enjoying II?
 
Seems more spices than last year's batch! YUMMY! Cloves jump out at you immediately on opening. But not overpowering in taste, just great hints on the tongue behind the pumpkin pie flavor. Makes me want to go to the store and buy a pie and put it in the oven right now!!!

Southern Tier 2x IPA. The best part was that they were serving it at rock concert for the same price as a Bud or Miller. Granted that was $12 a beer .

Ha! Reminds me of high school.

I'm working through some homebrew these days - a keg of an Amarillo dry-hopped IPA and a basic German heffeweizen.

Satisfaction Jackson is fresh and just came out.

I love when they release this beer!!!
