Someone describe that Or Xata for me. I haven't been able to talk myself into it yet just from the label description.

I've never had a real Or Xata.

Me neither, Salmon. I've contemplated it several times and always decided it just doesn't sound like my style.

Price is low for Bruery if I remember correctly.

It was $10.49, which isn't terrible.

Flavorwise, the vanilla is incredibly prominent. Almost overpowering, honestly, which gives it just a hint of a medicinal taste on the finish. In the midrange the cinnamon really dances across the palate and provides a fun balance to the vanilla. It actually has surprising body, some creaminess is present that complements the flavor nicely. My thing is, I really want this to be a stout, or better yet a milk stout, with some awesome roastiness happening. Were that happening I'd think this is an awesome beer. As it is I'd merely call it "good." I'd certainly buy it to try it, but I dunno that I'd buy it again. Although I might just do that and store that sucker away to see what happens

I think they intentionally avoided making it a stout, however. The Bruery does weird shite.

FBD was boulevard hibiscus Gose.

Nbd is saint Arnold icon blue.

I took a photo but it isn't working. For those that had trouble after the update, was the trouble with the actual TD website? (Not imgur or photobucket)
Once I click to enter the image URL on TD, nothing works.

I guess I could hand type it:

NBD is a Morph 4/7/15. Tasty ipa. Different hops. Fruity and spicy. Citrusy nose, but not as much on taste.

There is apparently a bug in the iOS update. Whenever I try to post a pic like I've always done, the browser crashes. I found that if you don't have the cursor in the text box when you hit the img button, it works.

I had that today. Tasted almost like cream soda. Vanilla and sweet. I actually liked it, as it was very drinkable. Probably won't get again, though.

Yeah. Second pour I'm getting more cinnamon which is an upgrade. I think it fits in nicely with The Bruery Diabeetus Reserve Series. A bottle of this could easily be shared. It's a bit of an undertaking.

Jax, you wanna try some Courtyard stuff? I have those two 32 oz.'ers that are just kinda hanging out. I figured I'd fill them this weekend and send them your way. It'd be something different for you. I don't expect anything as I feel like your boxes have always outshone anything I've sent you.

How is it, Salmon? That's my 3BD in a bit depending upon time and how I'm feeling.
