Connecticut... What's going on?

[SVT 551]

Random question does anyone know if SOS gets distributed on certain day of the week/month? I've been striking out trying to get it in the Enfield area.

 

[ilovestouts]

A friend offered to pass along some cans of today's release, assuming he gets any. I decided to eschew my skepticism and give 'em a shot; will follow back.

It's not 1/2 bad. I honestly think it drinks much more similarly to Trillium than Tree House.
Hey, hype besides... If that quality of beer is going to be semi regularly available in South Windsor, I'm not too jaded to not appreciate that.

So who is in the line waiting to get all trailblazered420 ctwhales?

kind of conflicted because I want to try this at some point but don't want to give any money to Rich Visco

Pic from my buddy who picked up the Trailblazer. Looks like it could use a little cold crash in the fridge. I have heard about Shabeen antics in the past, but I'm giving these guys a chance.

Shebeen has nothing to do with this beer other than them lending their equipment to the Pioneer guys while the South Windsor brewery is being built (as far as I know).

Man, **** this ****. I like a good hazy IPA as much as anyone but this and the ******* hoof hearted ****, cannot handle that

Agreed. I was just replying to the post above mine
about Visco. Pioneer will have nothing to do with them once the SW move happens, assumingly.

It's a bummer to buy unfinished beer, no doubt. I let the last Hoof Hearted can I had crash out in the fridge for 3 weeks and it looked like a normal Hazy guy and was much more drinkable.

C'mon flaming fury!!! The sours hitting distro is pretty awesome, love rosso and hops n roses.

Flaming Fury is coming. I tried some out of the foeder 2 weeks ago.

It was tasty.

The second canning of Trailblazer is almost how I imagine "IPA concentrate" would be- I added two oz of that beer to 10 oz of Sea Hag and the yeast and spicy excessive dry hopped character overpowered the whole beer.

it's in No Rules so nobody is really posting about it

 

[MooltiPass]

Also looks like the thread got closed, so shenanigans are likely fully accounted for in that screen grab.

This is funny. I thought the beer was tasting fine (but overpriced and ugly to look at) but you can see what this guy is trying to do. Cares too much about his beer's ranking.

Stumbled upon a four pack of this on the shelf and figured **** it I'll try it once. Too thin with an astringent finish. Please do not stand in line to pay $4 a can for this because of the hype.

So fuckjng astringent

So fuckjng astringent

I question whether all the people reviewing this saying "omg, straight juice!" have ever had an actual glass of juice. I don't know if this is a subpar batch (canned 4/20) compared to the initial release or there's some conspiracy to hype this up. It's not a drainpour or undrinkable it's not anywhere close to the best NE IPAs I've had.

 

[purephase]

Looks like Kent Falls is finally going to bottle a clean IPA with Shruggie. I hope they sort out their yeast issues by the time this gets packaged. I've actually enjoyed the Columbus presence of some of their recent IPAs like I AM TABLE and Almost, but it seems like all of their IPAs have also gotten sweeter and taken on more Belgian characteristics as well. I raved about the first release of Super Sparkle to a friend, and when batch 2 came out last month he was really disappointed and asked me if it was supposed to be a Belgian IPA.

Saw a few 4 packs of this turdin' on a local shelf at normal price. Left them there.

Wish I could make it to that Kent Falls farmers market. I hope they get their taproom open soon.
