They are very different, but there's some good one's. If you can still find it, the Deschutes Chasin' Freshies and Hop Trip are really good. Surly Wet was off the chain, didn't last two weeks in stores. Schell's Citra Pils is really good too. Some other's are kinda weird and vegetal though. Brau Bros. made on this year that was really gross.

It was really good. Thanks again.

Starting the afternoon off with Two Hearted. I haven't picked any of this up for a while, but I made the clone 2 weeks ago, so I figured I would need a few for comparison.

I had a growler each of Sierra Nevada Narwhal and RJ Rockers Rockhopper this weekend...needless to say, the weekend was very unproductive. That Narwhal is very nice, the Rockhopper is just OK, but I got it at a good price so no complaining.

...working on the next to last pint of Rockhopper at the moment.

I had heard many good things about that beer but can't get it here. I finally got to try it in Chicago while I was on a 3 hour layover. Pretty damn good beer there.

Guinness Foreign Extra. I've been wanting to try it for years and I finally found some. It's everything I dreamed it would be!

It lives up to the hype. That is the beer that got me into home brewing.

Walking through the local liquor today, I saw this for the first time. I have seen people talking about it on here, it was $4.99 for a bomber. This is really good, time to look up a recipe.

Racer 5, also on sale. Not my favorite, but an pretty good IPA. I like that Florida is getting some new breweries distributed here.

I was pretty pumped to try this one. Tastes pretty good even though its skunked.
