The sucks is good. I think some have mentioned it lost a step. Still citrusy. Less dank. My opinion is it finished a little sweeter, and less dry. Could contribute to less perceived bitterness.

It's my NBD. I'd be interested to hear your opinion

I've seen a couple of you have it over the past weeks so it's on my list. What would you compare it closest too / how does is compare to LA GOAT?


It is much lighter than Ghost. The Surly version is much like Abrasive--same hop profile, just lighter. Think Abrasive Lite. I had a bottle of the Amager version last week and I did not enjoy it nearly as much.

ETA: I bought 2 bottles of the Amager brewed version. I just gave bottle 2 the tetu treatment.

I think I sent some Hand Truck Pale Ale and WFO that way...

Barley Browns makes a lot of hoppy beers, and I will try any new one they put out...

I don't know which woman in this house stresses me out more, the 31 year old or the 2 year old.

That's my plan. I've got enough insurance in place to take care of everything.

If you don't get to keep them, one of those glasses would definitely find its way to my purse.

And 2.5 from Green Flash

I'd like to bust your butt but I can't. I got another problem here. I gotta send somebody from this squadron to Miramar. I gotta do something here, I still can't believe it. I gotta give you your dream shot!

LST-I think I've still got your digits. Headed to SD in a couple of weeks and want to get some thoughts. Staying over the weekend in Little Italy about 3 blocks from the Ballast Point taproom.
