I was expecting much more from this. $10 bottle of highly carbed Heineken. Damn you green bottles!!

Wow. Tell me how you really feel! Is it really that bad?

Yep, I did some research before I bought it, scored a 94 on Beer Advocate. I hit the low score tab and every low score it had was from skunking. I happened to get a skunked bottle.

I absolutely LOVE that beer. Would hands down call it my "desert island" beer.

I used to have a local shop that knew how to handle their stock, never got a bad bottle. But they went under. And now every. f#@&ing. time. I get that beer it's skunk piss.

It's a shame.

Still nursing the last of the bottle of Hanssens Oude Gueuze. So delicious. I'd probably rank this #3 I've had (behind 3 Fonteinen and Cantillon)

That's a bummer. I've seen it a few times myself but because of the green bottle, I've shied away from it too. Makes me wonder why in the world craft brewers still use green bottles?!!

Soooo you like seeather?

Aye. That I do. That which is in the background is an autographed album cover. I got it from my old bandmate for a wedding gift. Somewhere I have an autographed pic of Black Label Society.
 
Rogues Choc PN butter Bannana ale. Yep kinda sucks. Aroma is wtf? Taste is wtf with a cola-ish nut brown quality with a good bittered finish.Its just an odd extract flavor that tastes of awkwardness. Drinkable but almost dumpable. Think I slightly liked the Maple Bacon more or at least just the aroma,otherwise that tasted like cream soda to me.Probably not a surprise to anybody- but one and done. It has some well deserved bad ratings as well. Seems like they just throw anything our there anymore without trying to make it better before they start producing them. I love a lot of Rogues stuff but anymore its a love/hate thing.

The only reason that I could think of for still using green bottles is tradition.
