ShocksMyBrain 9,776 Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 First time seeing or even hearing about this Bell’s DIPA. Bottled 11/5/18. Drinks like a typical DIPA from Bell’s with a pretty solid malt backbone. Not sticky like some others. Tropical with some peach notes. Not bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuburnSoldier 117 Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Sipping a Big Bad Baptist right now. I think this is every bit as good as BCBS. The cocoa nibs are getting louder as it warms up. Definitely recommend. I don’t know how rare it is, but this was the first time I’ve ever seen it. I’ll be going back for another bottle next week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger Refuge 6,802 Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 (edited) I picked up some Brown Shugga today. Dammit, I forgot how much I love that beer. Edited November 18, 2018 by Tiger Refuge 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it’s a shelf turd in Colorado. That said, it is a nice beer for the cost. Not sure if I agree that it’s as good as BCBS, however.

ShocksMyBrain 9,776 Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 (edited) Salad Days has taken over as my current go-to IPA over Devil’s Harvest. Canned 11/9/18, probably about as fresh as I’m gonna get it without getting it at the brewery. Anyone else had a chance to cop a 6? Looking like it’s going to be year-round.

AUDub 11,974 Posted November 22, 2018 Author Share Posted November 22, 2018 I have a CBS waiting for me when I get home and kick back to watch the Egg Bowl. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger Refuge 6,802 Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 To answer the question...bourbon. I’ve got one solid pour of Weller antique remaining. Probably start with that. I have a great selection(thanks to @McLoofus!) of beer mail beers to consume. However, my sinus congestion is killing my sense of taste, so I don’t wanna waste any of them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been hard trying not to steal his when I open his fridge. Good this year, wish for more chile peppers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkey sammich as soon as baby is in her crib. It’s my constant gripe with Xoco lately. Seems the first run or two in bombers had some pretty evident pepper. Everything since going to 6 packs has kept it muted. Which I guess makes sense when you consider they’re pumping out two or three times as much each year.
