SL83's Extended and Ongoing Beer Thread

[Whistler]

next time they brew some, remind me and ill see about sending some out

i don't think there will be a next time, sounded like it was a one shot deal

it sold out at my local binnys in a few hours

also tried KBS and it wasnt too bad... although they didnt open the taps until 2pm at the Michigan Winter Beer Festival and I was too many samples into the afternoon (it started at noon) to appreciate it

I went to the winter festival & mentioned it in this thread--way to let me know you were going Grung! psssssh
Took the ABC beer bus from AA & had a blast w/ the gf. $35 for trip + unlim. abc beer & coffee + donuts & bagels, was great fun!

I didnt pay enough attention!

I did find it funny that the biggest line of the day was for the KBS tapping... at a festival that was basically under 10 miles away from the actual brewery.

My three favorite beers there were
Darkhorse Tres Blueberry Stout
KBS
Some wheat beer that I cant remember the name of.


As for Nemesis... it looks to me as if they will be brewing one batch per year

Anyone here have Life & Limb? Friend bought me a bottle, what are your opinions on it.

 

[Stigs]

I had it back in December. Do not want.

Think it might be 2-3 years before its drinkable, it has potential to be pretty good...but was just way way way too sweet fresh. It made me want to brush my teeth it was so sweet.

Double Trouble is such a great underrated DIPA. Love having Sculpin readily available here, but the pricing is ridiculous.

Have you tried the Founders Devil Dancer? I only read about it today. BA notes say:

Dry-hopped for twenty-six days straight with a combination of 10 hop varieties.
112 actual IBU; although it calculates to over 200!

I really like Allagash White a lot. Might have to check out some more of their stuff.
