re: What's your most overrated beer/brewery?

don't get much out of any of Bayou Teche or Tin Roof beers.

no one rates tin roof very highly. I like parade ground and Ivan (not wax worthy). Turnrow, hefe, and juke joint are drinkable.

I really like some Bayou Teche beers. I will buy Cocodrie, Loup gorou and peach IPA over most beers from Louisiana. The crawfish saison is very drinkable

but then they do this

How did they not test multiple bottles before they hit distribution? Especially for a special release like your 5 year Anniversary? The lactobacillus here is doing horrid, infectious things to a base Berliner Weisse that seems to lack any integrity to begin with. Heavy off flavors of: DMS, isovaleric acid and butyric acid. The fruit was also not treated well and could be a contributing culprit.

The thing is, they got the label almost right: smells like that Opossum rummaging through garbage, but only if that Opossum died in the process.

Here's what I'm getting. Nose is immediately copious vomit then waves of hot garbage, Bogalusa Louisiana, prank stink bombs, decomposing animal carcasses, spoiled yogurt or ranch dressing, farts, sweaty feet, moldy fruit, a festering sewer, rotten Stilton cheese and rotten butter.

Can you believe what I'm about to say next? I actually tasted it, twice! And that decision is a regrettable one. Tasted like a liquid landfill.

to answer the original question


Beer:

Some of the Bourbon County stuff. Its all really good but not Ill wait all day outside the store for it good.

brewery:

Praire, I am basing this purely on price point. I really want to know why everyone of their beers is nearly double a typical breweries. I love bomb! and all but i am over paying $8-$12 a bottle.
