I'm pretty sure Cigar City doesn't distribute in new england, which is why my carry-on gets checked each time I fly back from Florida.

you are correct. though certain bottle shops, if you have rapport, can sneak in a pack here and there through their distributor(s). i got Hunahpu's Imperial Stout delivered to MA through this method before. really really good stout.

rare breed is absolutely my #1 premium-ish bottle. the top tier of whiskey championship for me (that I can afford) are Rare Breed, Wild Turkey 101, and Knob Creek. I know bookers is really good and I've had it several times, but the price tag does not equate to me wanting to ever purchase one solo.

since you don't seem to be too picky on beers and enjoy the buds and so forth, i think you might like it. it's kinda like a sam boston lager in taste with a bit less of that caramel-flavor and some barely noticeable hops.

tl;dr it's a balanced beer that doesn't overwhelm on anything. give it a shot.

depending on what they are, you very well could be right. care to share the overly-long names of them? chances are i've had them in the past.

Stone Delicious IPA India Pale Ale (probably the most normal one outta the bunch)
 __________________________________
[Aug 7,2016 5:07pm - susurrate ""]
familiar with several.

clown shoes white ale is good. but it also makes a great tenderizer/marinade base for chicken breast/thighs.

flemish sour ale is an acquired taste. i like that particular one but it's almost like a sour wine.

stone delicious IPA is just that...normal ipa. nothing to write home about.

dark horse scotch ale is perfect for beef/cottage stew in the slow cooker.

bent water porter i have no idea about but porters are always good as a steak marinade.

if you don't choose to drink them, you can put them to use in the above applications with stellar results if you aren't a vegetarian.

that being said, there's no beer on that list that i've had personally that i would say outright sucks.

i'm going back to drinking my gansett summer ales now. cheers.

copper legend is quite good. best i've had is BBC Oktoberfest but haven't seen it yet this year. just had the 2016 one-time-brewed edition of the Sierra Nevada Oktoberfest and it's probably the best beer I've had this year in general so far. The Ayinger o-fest will always be the best to me however.

feel like a tryhawwd cause I'm posting too often but its the internet and most of you are likely as bored as i.

first beer tonight was something i picked up relatively cheaply that i have never heard of before. Battle Road 1775 Tavern Ale from MA. As an avid fan of things such as American history and The Patriot starring Mel Gibson, I gave in.

Touted as a rustic ale, it's supposed to hark back to the colonial times or something of that nature. Does anyone else picture the Fallout 4 atmosphere when they think of MA history now besides me?

I can answer this. A year or two ago, BBC underwent a gradual rebranding of some of their offerings and packaging. For instance- Berkshire Ale became "Hoosac Tunnel Amber Ale"; BBC Maibock became "Slue's Maibock Lager". Other beers like draymans porter and steel rail stayed the same but with updated labelling. I too was dismayed to see no Oktoberfest on the shelves because Imo it's the best domestic Oktoberfest. Good heavy body and with a creaminess most okt lagers didn't possess. They do however have BBC "Life On Märzen" out on shelves. A Märzen is a different term for Oktoberfest (obviously) so I bought one to try it. It's similar but really not. Doesn't have the dead leaves taste and the creamy body. My guess is that they changed their recipe a bit and rebranded it. It's not nearly as good.

tl;dr Oktoberfest became "Life On Märzen" and there's something different about it which makes it not as good.


As far as pumpkin beers that don't taste like synthetic bullshit,

Pumpkin Imperial Spruce Stout by Rock Art Brewing
Fisherman's Pumpkin Stout by Cape Ann Brewing
The Great Pumpkin by Elysian Brewing
Barrel-Aged Xibalba (:doublehorns by Wicked Weed Brewing
Good Gourd Imperial Pumpkin by Cigar City (good luck finding it)

Southern Tier Warlock pumpkin stout was alright this year too.

I know a lot of people hate the Pumking (on an off note), but I'm a fan. only 1 per year though. It's too cloying for more.

yeah. there really fucking are. when i go to the store now, i'm overwhelmed by choices i have never heard of from all over new england. when i take a risk, i'm satisfied maybe 30% of the time. in addition, now that the craft scene has blown up even larger, there's a ton of outdated IPA/DIPA bottles/cans on the shelves because of how much selection there is and the clerks/managers don't care to police it. i got burned on old IPA's a couple times before implementing the #1 new rule which is check the born-on date before even considering anything.

and breweries- for the love of god, stop it with the "new england style" hazy IPA's. shit's outplayed already. (p.s. Fort Hill fresh pick + jigsaw jazz are the best of that style that i've tried)

yes, even the classic townie packies nearby are starting to have dedicated coolers for IPAs. the prices are insane and the quality is suspect on a lot of these.

trillium's PM Dawn coffee stout = :doublehorns:

been wanting to try trillium for awhile. my immediate area doesn't appear to have any, though i haven't tried provisions in northampton or whole foods in hadley. maybe i'm too far west.

anyone try treehouse? i only tried the sierra nevada/tree collab. was OK but not mind blowing. i heard tell that every weekend, dudes in horn rimmed glasses line up to buy beer at treehouse.

southern tier pumking is already in stock. crazy.

picked up 2 of them and they're now in some weird bottle between a bomber and a pint. way better than in past years but still not much pumpkin flavor.

grabbed a lefty's oktoberfest and a sixer of Sierra Nevadas 2018 Oktoberfest collaboration. all was decent.

Ayinger Oktoberfest rules as always.
