re: Dogfish Head coming to LA

I'll hoard some 120 but the bombers are all turds. Theobroma was a memorable experience but not for being a good beer.

When are we getting Sea Dog?

I dont understand that philosophy, I mean I understand sometimes it's the thrill of the hunt but a great beer is still great, even if it shelf turds

Don't know how to explain it, it just is. Used to be that if I saw Sip on draft somewhere, it was a no brainer that I was getting it.

Now? Eh, I can have it pretty much anytime, I'd rather get something else.

There's something about knowing it's not easy to obtain that makes some beers taste better. Probably 100% psychological, but it's true.

I've been called worse.

Would be happy to do another trade involving SOS.

I remember when DFH started distributing in Texas-that must have been 20 years ago. Their 90 Minute IPA was the first double IPA that I remember on the shelves in Texas and I sought it out regularly. As the Texas brewers and other domestic craft brewers started importing into Texas it sort of faded into the background for me.

Their IPA's are already malty as can be and after Crescent Crown finishes with their standard warehouse aging process they won't even be fit for beer can chicken

Maybe 4 or 5 years for me.

Same here. I used to buy it when I was in FL and bring some home.

Just like bourbon people pass on perfectly good beer or whisky just cause it is not rayer. It is heard mentality. I enjoy all kinds of beer. India Brown Ale and 90 Min (less than 60 days old) are still some of my favorites. 60 Min is just solid beer. They were cutting edge beers, but trends change. It won’t be long and the juice craze will be over and something new will take its place. I know TLDR
