FBD is a Uinta Brewing Dubhe Black IPA. Very impressive.


Well, how does it stack up against the other BIPAs?



Upper tier of the ones I've tried for sure.

Nope, Never heard of it to be honest.

We hit Alesmith Greenflash Lost Abbey/Port and Stone all in one afternoon.

Lost abbey is a must if you ask me. They had some great sours. Stone was very cool. alesmith was just a room to drink their beers. Green flash was about the same.

All legit stuff and very convenient but in the end just little tasting bars within their breweries besides Lost abbey and Stone.

been to those except Green Flash, and it is on top of my to-do list, mostly because it's walking distance from my cousin's house.

and I have to go to Stone to get the free beer they owe me

Man, sorry I didn't let you know about Hess. They are a 50-gallon batch Nanobrewery very near AleSmith, and they have great beers, especially their IPAs

This was the draft selection at the Toronado. The bottle selection was out of this world too.

That row 2 hill 56 was the all Simcoe hopped IPA I was talking about earlier today. It was very nice.

Yep, Toronado is legit. The stone Company store is pretty close to that along with Hamilton's which was also very good.

Downtown Johnny Browns should be high on your list if it's not already.

Hamilton's is my cousin's favorite, he always mentions going there, but we didnt get a chance to go. If we don't go in July I will request it specifically for October.

yeah, that's almost identical to the one here in SF, although they usually have some Dogfish Head and Lagunitas and there is like 2 more columns of choices it seems like.

I really wish they updated there draught list , but it hasn't been updated it says since 2008

I've only had their IPA. I thoroughly enjoyed it. They always get high marks.

Double stout
West coast IPA
Hop head red

Those are the best green flash offers, imo
