I'm not saying that Tin Roof's gose was some world class example of the style. But to say that it was a bad beer or was brewed poorly or to call it "shite" is disingenuous. There are plenty of people (myself included) who haven't or didn't really give them a fair shake based on prior experiences. And there are beers in their current lineup that have no desire to drink. I get it. But you really need to differentiate between a beer that isn't your favorite from a badly brewed beer. The Tin Roof gose may have been the former, but it wasn't the latter.
I like what I've seen as far as the direction Tin Roof is going. Getting rid of Tom and Alex was a huge first step. Redesign of recipes is coming, but will take some time. The Bayou Bengal, while not an exciting beer by any means, shows that they are capable of brewing a hard to brew style well.

I stated IN MY OPINION, meaning personally, i didn't like it. Taste is subjective. I may like a beer that you hate and vice/versa. That's why i end each sentence with IMO to avoid confusion.

You are correct in that i generalized Tin Roof on their Gose. Maybe i shouldn't have done that. But i'll tell you this. My brother and I were at CBD when we had it. My brother is a bigger sour guy than I (I believe you met him at Nottoway), and we both thought the same thing. That doesnt mean everyone has the same reaction to it. That's just our perception of the beer. We didn't like it, and i was thankful i didn't buy a bomber of that stuff.

They need this badly. Everyone in my circle doesn't like their beers, and many won't even try their beers because of their initial rollout. I don't know what this new gal can do, but for the craft drinker, I wish they would brew something good.

Perfect example. I'm willing to try this beer, but i'm not buying a 6 pack to just be "Tin Roof'd" again. And so far, i can't find singles of this beer, and i'm not ordering this at the chimes or other beer bars (the rare once ever 2 months i go).
