Nice haul. I reckon you won't need these CCB bottles..

3BD - Great Lakes Blackout Stout, honestly a bit disappointing given the other GL brews I've tried.

You boys need some help, man. How do you get the distributors to start carrying more brewers. Heard good things about Great Raft, though.

Did you ever get to try that Ale Apothecary?

Keepin it goin.



Espresso definitely faded some but still a top notch beer. For $6 a bomber it's a steal.

we're getting there, slowly but surely

we usually get the new breweries about 6 months after south LA, but we have never received Cantillion

Not my strongest Thursday showing. Tomorrow will probably be weak too. Other things in store.

I bought a couple for $8.99 in Memphis. I thought it was a steal. Really good beer.

CCB brews some crazy sound stuff, but a "wheat wine-style ale brewed with cherries" sounds amazing. I'm completely jealous of your proximity to CCB.

Was thinking the same thing when I saw that. Those guys are creative as hell. It seems like it is never boring around there.

FBD-4BD were pours from these grenades sent by Jax. The first 2, from Breakside, were nice west coast style IPAs. Solid and easy to drink. The Hop Venom was really nice. Great citrusy fruit that carried through to the finish with nice resiny hops. The citrus component seemed a little ripe, which was nice. The Crux was the winner IMO.

They might be my favorite brewery and I haven't had one beer by them. A friend and I were talking about going to the Iowa game just to do cigar city.

SBD. I found these at my local grocery store here in podunk MS. Bought two 4-packs, but I'm heading back tomorrow to buy the rest of their stock. My wife and I love this beer.

Very impressive that Jax was able to send 4 growlers, and they arrived intact.
