No. Haven't seen that yet at my local beverage center or anyplace that I may stop to have a pint on tap. I'll have to keep my eyes peeled.

Currently I have been drinking DFH 90 Min IPA or Smaltz Brewing Sweet Lenny's RIPA. Toss in an occasional Bell's Two Hearted.

How was the Cascade tasting? Have been thinking about picking up a bottle or two (but they're pricey)

They were all pretty tasty!

Manhattan NW, Figaro, Vlad The Imp Aler and Bourbonic Plague were really good.

It kills me since I'll never find Manhattan again but I will definitely be buying anything I find from Cascade!

Sam'l Smith Strawberry Fruit Ale. First time trying one, by recommendation of the guy at liquor store. Not bad though. SWEET but good. Now too just see how much alcohol it actually has in it.

My second favorite beer for tonight, Firestone Walker Double Jack. I prefer Russian River Pliney just a little better, but not much, Firestone makes some great beers.

Thanks for the info.

The beer did get a funny taste towards the end. I am curious if putting it into a glass versus drinking it from the bottle would perhaps mix things up. Will have to try on my next bottle.

Cantillon Fou' Foune. I believe this was an older bottle, fruit was a tad bit muted, funk up front. Overall, best sour I've had.

Saranac Legacy IPA. Love this stuff. Glad they decided to make it a regular production beer.

They just started making it again after a several year hiatus. Its not cheap either. Ive seen it going for about $20 a 6er. i dont remember it being that expenisve before. The original was one of my favorit beers by S.T.

Thanks!
I had never seen it in a 6pack, just big bottles. They used to be around $9 here, so if I saw $20 for a 6 pack I guess I would be happy :)

Yeah I think the original was just in bombers. This one I have only seen in 6ers or on draft. If you have trouble finding it let me know, we might be able to set up a trade.
Last night I got a tour of the soon to open Resurgence Brewing. Got to taste there test batch of dry hopped kolsch, session IPA, loganberry wit and sponge candy stout. All were fantastic especially the stout.

Don't keep up with stuff here but cracked a 2013 Central Waters bourbon barrel barelywine.

Love this stuff. Need to grab some if the 2014 soon.

Decided to try my first craft beer - Firestone Walker Sucaba 2014. This is my first sipping beer, very complex. Almost over-powering if you take too big of a sip. Interesting, this is barrel aged and reminds me more of a wine than a beer. Definitely enjoying it.
