FBD is a Chappapela Saison. The bottle didn't say anything about Brett, but I knew it the second the cork popped. Not that I'm complaining.

ETA: not the best or worst Brett saison. More phenolics than esters. A hint of smoke/rubber coming through.

What date ya got on that batch?
There was not a stamp on the can or a sticker on top of the packaging. I hesitated to purchase but when asking the dude at Spec's about fresh hops he stated he received this batch a couple weeks prior. He evidently keeps an eye on this beer because one of his customers loads up when a shipment arrives. Do you know what H&G's dating system typically is?

NBD is yet another vintage Jax Brand growlito of Brash PW shared with Jay Are.

Had an old fashioned with dinner celebrating the 7th anniversary.

Post dinner was a southern craft citeaux... decent. Then had more bourbon.

Doctor's orders after my driver strepped out. I make more bottle shares than certain posters that live there that shall remain nameless (cough Ryno, cough TCO). I haven't been at a party that involved vacating before driving home since the 2015 Jamboree. Too bad you didn't get all this rain to wash your yard.

They do 90 day best by stamp on the bottom of the can for their hoppy stuff. The 6er's I've seen around Houston were 12/27 so I've been avoiding, but haven't been out looking in a minute. Green House IPA sometimes has a best by date, sometimes batch # with hops.
