Weyerbacher

I don't know how many of you have access to Weyerbacher due to their distribution but they have some really nice beers that seem to be held back a little bit by the rather regional brand name and some goofy looking labels (comments from friends that have avoided their product in the past).

The Double Simcoe IPA, Scotch ale & Hops Infusion are very good. The Imperial Pumpkin is one of the few pumpkin ales that I enjoy as well.

Glib, have you seen that around locally? I need to find some for someone on the west coast, he's going to send me some Alaskan Smoked Porter in exchange.

You can contact their MA wholesaler and find out the closest place...

Yep...quite the decent barley wine. I just picked up a case of their "big brews" variety pack that includes Blithering Idiot, Double Simcoe, Old Heathen & Merry Monks.

I've raved about these guys here before. The monks, idiot, heresy, insanity...all fine beers. Their "oktoberfest" (brewed with an ale yeast) is fantastic. If you get the oppty, visit the brewery...lots on tap to sample.

Haha yeah they really do need to work on those labels and cases... Looks like something any of us could make on our home PC

I've had their Blanche before and much prefer Hoegaarden. I've also had Hops Infusion and definitely had better hopped up beers. I guess that's two strikes. I'll have to try one more and see how it turns out.

I agree with you there. The Blanche is nice, but it has nothing on Hoegaarten.
