What's your favorite Beer?

Right–those are national brands for sure.

Life is extraordinarily hectic ATM, but I want to share/trade some of the local beers (and Bruery, if that's off the radar) with folks who are interested.

Understand hectic…owe Eli a shipment (one more and it's filled with specials), but would be game if there's anything around here you're interested in.

[mclaincausey]

Yep, same; we'll talk soon on that, I also wanted to help Mr Pigler out as well as Mega and the Padmores, and other curious parties.

La Follie from New Belgium is a good intro to sours, along with the Love Child series from Boulevard.

Thanks, this is perfect!

I found them after my last trade with Dan. Bubble wrap and shipping supplies are far more costly and less secure. Thought with the trades that go on, others might find this useful.

I've had trouble with even painstaking packing, there's no comparison to vessel formed padding. Used similar to get wine home from Oz.

If you check, they have supplies for wine and 750ml bottles too. Glad someone will find them of use

You're first, milady

Eewwwwww

Had the day off yesterday so I had some afternoon beers!

Grapefruit Sculpin, great as always. Not over the top fruit flavors, just enough to be refreshing and different.
I still have yet to try out the Habanero version, not sure I want to as the combo doesn't sound enticing.

Brooklyn Sorachi Ace.
Not sure how I felt about this one after one small bottle, spicy and smooth but something just didn't taste right.
Maybe just a bit too yeast-y. 

[Seul]

Mouthwatering description though!..

Brooklyn Sorachi Ace is a classic saison, a cracklingly dry, hoppy unfiltered golden farmhouse ale, but featuring rare Sorachi Ace hop.Fermented with our special Belgian ale strain, we add Sorachi Ace hops post-fermentation. After 100% bottle re-fermentation with Champagne yeast, the beer emerges with a bright spicy lemon zest aroma. It tastes like sunshine in a glass, and that suits us just fine, especially with seafood dishes and fresh cheeses.

[Broark]

Yup, that along with the ratings I saw I figured it was worth a pickup.
Luckily I've got three more bottles to give it a go again!

[Seul]

Holy cow - totally forgot I have a saison Dupont in the fridge… That's breakfast sorted...

[Seul]

I almost forgot!.. Look at this new brew!.. I'll be sure to get some for you, @Megatron1505 @Chris

[mclaincausey]

That's in the states I believe, I've seen it for months.

@Seul:

Eewwwwww 

Way too sweet

It's apparently not new at all, but it's the first time I've seen it. Direct delivery, didn't even order it. Got some Hoegaarden Agrume and Citrus or some shit like that as well… Worst part is this means less room for decent beers at my shop  Well at the least til the promotional crate's gone
