I just picked up an extra bottle of CCB's new beer, Evander. They just released it in the tap room and have not tried it myself. Apparently it is a brown ale. Let me know if you are interested. Cheers!
Well, I picked up a 6'r of hopslam last night, drank one, and hate it. If anybody is interested in 5 bottles, please let me know. Thanks.

well, i -- i think that it -- if
i ever go looking for my heart's desire
again, i won't look any further than my own
backyard. Because if it isn't there, i
never really lost it to begin with! Is
that right?
Is it the first time trying it?
Heady topper rocks. I am sipping one right now

Zd was good for sure. I shoulda let u know i had some.
I am pretty hard headed, so I am not sure......
I guess my issue is when you set the bar at the highest point every year, you have to show up with your A game, and if you dont, it is on you. Bells has been a consistent quality brewery that has always been impressive even when I am not a fan of the style they are brewing. I have a lot of respect and expect nothing but the best from them. Maybe my expectations are too high, or they set the bar that high? Am I in the wrong to expect consistency?
I think I've like all of their beers. I'm pretty sure I've had Hopslam and liked it.
Larry Bell, the founder, shows up down here occasionally. I met him at World of Beer on Linebaugh a couple of years ago. Keep your eyes peeled and maybe you can tell him in person.
He's known as a dick, but I liked him. He told me some great stories of illegal brewing in Michigan.
What do you hear about Barley Mow Brewing Company? Largo I think?

Jay and Colleen couldn't be nicer people. They are living the dream... quit hospitality jobs and stepped up their homebrew game to pro. I haven't been there since their opening, so I can't speak about the beers.
They were in my local club. Another Dunedin Brewer's Guild member is opening a similar place, but with food, in the Feather Sound area.
Trade? only three lift

My homebrew club, Pubguild, is going to do a group brew day at Barley Mow on Sunday morning. Really looking forward to brewing with Jay and learning about his e-brewing.
nedvalton said:Maybe I will try it again next year. My issue with it and pliny immediately were filtering. You dont filter dry hopped beers. And there is no way to get that clarity without doing so unless is sits for a while and loses the quality
You can, but you have to cold crash for a few weeks, dry hop, and then cold crash again. This is a beer I did wasn't filtered and had a stunning hop flavor and aroma. It has a little condensation on the glass, it is nearly as clear as Pliny. But I agree with you 100%. I had a Pliny last night and wondered what it would be like if not for the filtering.
What time. I'm gonna crash the party.
What are you looking for and what is the date on those?
They just came off the shelf from RRBC last week. I would trade 1 PTE plus 4oz of Simcoe, Amarillo, or Calypso for a 6 pack of CCB Jai Alai in the can? Still think that is the best beer, even a better beer than PTE.
