That looks really good. By far Tremens is one of my favorite beers. Let us know how this one compares to the real mccoy.
I have not sampled the real thing yet. A friend said it was his favorite beer, so we decided to do a clone of it. I can't get the real thing hear locally, but a couple of weeks ago I was able to pick up a bottle in MO.
We are going to do a side by side comparison in two weeks when we have a brew day. Going to brew an Imperial Russian that I found here on HBT. I'll let you know how they compare.
