    Most likely it'll only be available by the 4 pack in retail take out shops.

    I will look for it. Their breakfast stout is still one of my favorites.

    $25 a pop is steep, but I've made dumber purchases ;)

    If you've tried the Kentucky Bourbon Stout, this shouldn't disappoint.

    I have been liking the local fresh hop Pilsners. Pales and IPA's lately. You cannot beat fresh hop brewed beers, IMO.

    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    I have a confession to make and it pains me to admit this.

    I have been on a 6 month journey to empty all beer out of my fridge to make way for "New Stock"...as of 5:30pm, yesterday afternoon, i.........i.........i ran out of beer :(

    Kegerator is empty, and the only alcoholic beverage in my bar ridge is.....Zima, 2 of them :D

    Pray for me...

    Was that a photograph of people waiting for the beer or the loo?

    Edit: I forgot to include that I am drinking the first beer I've had in 3 nights, and it's my first 2017 Sierra Nevada Celebration Fresh Hop IPA. It's very good.

    Treehouse is only available for purchase at the brewery.
    On beeradvocate.com, a number of their beers are ranked in the top #100 in the country. I waited for 1.5 hours. It was 12 degrees with wind chill.

    Yet another of life's stupid decisions...

    A decision involving (good) beer, is never stupid, IMO.

    Top ten Oktoberfest beers.
    https://beerconnoisseur.com/articles/top-ten-oktoberfest-beers-issue-32#

    Nice...New Glarus Staghorn made the list at number 9. That brewery is less than an hour from here. They have a lot of good beers, the most popular being Spotted Cow. For some reason they don't want to expand distribution even though I'm pretty sure they just did a major brewery addition.

    They tried a number of years ago. QC took a hit, we used to get it in Illinois but no more. I had the cherry this last may 2017 i should of bought a case LOVED IT!!!

    Was drinking the Lagunitas Born Yesterday Fresh Hop Pale Ale about 2 hours ago. Very, very nice. I am now drinking the very "stout", Fathead Hop Juju Imperial IPA. This is an excellent beer. It is smooth, flavorful, and is great at 9.1%. Be very careful with this one. It'll get ya.
