Gonna dip into a couple of local BA Stouts.

NBD - Breakside Oligarch goes great with pulled pork green chili. Both are delicious. The beer is a bit thin, and a notch below Matryoshka, Super Nebula, and Don Vanuchi, IMO.

Since nobody else is playing, I'll post the lineup for the Festival of the Dark Arts this weekend.

This is a bucket list event for me. Great venue - check. Great beers - check. Great food - check. Crazy shite going on - check.

I can't go, either. My son's district wrestling tournament is this weekend. Maybe next year. You would love it, for what it's worth.


I want to try the Matryoshka variants and the Fremont beers (specifically the Rusty Nail).

ETA : Lynn, the bartender is giving me oversized pours. 12 oz glass, and I'm paying for 6 oz pours. I may have to Uber back to work, or stall for an hour...

NBD - Crux Fermentation Project Tough Love BA stout.

I've downvoted all your posts.

Not because I dislike you, but because I'm just so damn eaten up with the resent at this moment.

Apparently, you're not the only one...

I'm out. I thought I did enough to keep this thread up until someone else could jump in. I was wrong. I has the disapoint.

I fear for our leaders life. It seems like Kim Jon Un is knocking off the other Kim Jongs. Be safe man. If a couple of hot North Korean chicks want to jump in the sack with you, resist! Remember, you'll have other opportunities later.

Seriously, Dec-Feb is second only to fresh hop season for me. The BA stouts are great, and this year was the best ever...

I love BA stouts as much as IPA's. Need to see if there is still Astronaut status around here.

This was announced by Southern Pro



SPB


By our own choosing, Devil's Harvest went through a period of vast changes in 2016. With access to exciting, new hops and a general drive to make things better, we embarked on this journey to take a brand we've had in our portfolio day one of Southern Prohibition, from good to great. I'd like would like to take a moment to answer some questions we've had about this beer:

1) "My beer is cloudy, it's hazy, it's not aesthetically pleasing. Is something wrong with it?"
This is no accident. Devil's Harvest has entered the realm of East Coast "juicy" IPAs. While we have great respect for tradition and style guidelines, this "new" variation of IPA is very different from West Coast clear, bitter, and piney IPAs.
2) "What's the cloudiness from?"
It is from a portion of flaked oats in the grain bill, hop haze from the massive amount of dry hop, and from a small amount of lingering yeast -- all leading to a very aromatic, fruity, and cloudy IPA with no bitterness. These beers, like any IPA, are designed for fresh consumption.
3) "Are all your beers from Southern Prohibition going to become this hazy?"
Nah.
4) "Devil's Harvest has changed since it's changed. Can you change it back?"
This beer has been worked on for several months, batch to batch, and is to a point now where the preferred our consumer's price point and our end goal of flavor and aroma are in unison.
5) "Are you going to rebrand Devil's Harvest with the new flavor?"
The big change in the product has taken us to rebranding the image and style, and we are extremely happy to share it with you. You'll be seeing this bad boy on the shelf in March this year. This beer is an East Coast IPA now -- and with the flaked oats, low ABV and orange juice appearance, Breakfast was a fun word to add. We now introduce to you Devil's Harvest Breakfast IPA instead of the American Pale Ale it once was.
If you haven't had a Devil's Harvest in a while, grab one up. We are always improving, always learning and always making great beer and giving you something to look forward to from us at Southern Prohibition. Hope you like it and the new can.
Thanks to everyone who has been on this ride, and thanks for the support as we rebuild and rebrand Devil's Harvest and make our brewery even bigger and better in 2017.
Benjamin Green (Head Brewer) and the SoPro Team

6)"Is the very first batch in the new cans going to be $, and then go back to sucking again?"

Hell yeah! Can't wait for this to come out. Interesting that it's gonna be an IPA from now on.

That looks awesome. There is a bias against NE IPAs around here, but some breweries, like Block 15 and Great Notion are killing it. I think eventually, we'll see something close to an equilibrium between the styles, which would suit me fine.

Wonder if they'll go to 4 packs like their Cicada series to recoup some of the extra $$?

First up for me is an RC03 special. Really impressed with where this one is now, had it on tap a few months back and thought it was decent. Now it's great, going to make the rotation:

Not EXACTLY true. They literally could not afford to brew it that way. The beer was too expensive and the cost of increasing their hop contract was not viable given their place in the market. If Mississippi would change some of their laws and enable them to have a real taproom presence they could do more things like old Devil's Harvest.

Or, you know, so I heard.
