Fellowship of the Drink III: The Return of the (beer) kings

[pointcity-homebrew]

I have a couple nasty ones I am saving for you.

You must be referring to the DH Romantic Chemistry that we spoke about awhile back.

Key Lime Pie Gose ... Yes I want ... Damn skeezer

I am going to GA this weekend, if I see any in Augusta I can grab some for you.

Just a heads up that I haven't seen it around the ATL for a long time, probably 5-6mo or so and it sold out most places really quick with a 4pk per person limit. I just had one left in the fridge so tossed it in. I'm not sure I have seen the regular version around either.

That said, I don't know anything about Augusta, so if they got it they very well could have a bunch sitting around on shelves or maybe across the border in SC also. There was a bomber of tequila BA margarita gose that dropped awhile back that may be sitting around a couple shops

I am going to check 2 small bottle shops there in Evans, the usually have plenty of the standard Gose, I do not have high hopes, but you never know.

True true, we got it in Buffalo once and I only got two cans because a friend hid them for me. If it's there it's there if not, oh well. Thanks for checking too I may have to send a thank you down for the effort!


@Scturo should have a box awaiting him let's hope everything survived

@skeezerpleezer what do you think of Orpheus?

Much worse.

Got home to find my offer from @RevKev and holy chit, what a box! Love singlecut, and I can't wait to try the rest. The extra beers and sweet taster glass are a great offer by themselves. Thanks bud, I will
Definitely be paying your generosity forward in the next round. Cheers!

It's my pleasure!! Softly Spoken Magic is my personal favorite from them. Phenomenal brew and the Genny Bock well. It won't blow you socks off but when it comes out I always pick up at least a few cases, let me know what you think of them when you try them all!! Cheers to more beers

 

[RevKev]

This just got released. I wanted to get it in the box.. too late but if it's good I'll put it up next round

@skeezerpleezer what do you think of Orpheus?

I am not a big fan. Lots of inconsistencies and general quality issues keep me from buying the stuff. Some locals like it, but none of my friends do.

They do have a couple big stouts that are normally good. Ferryman is out now, Hazelnut imperial stout. Not much Hazelnut but a pretty good imperial stout.

Creature Comforts is the best brewery in the state by far, and also about the only GA stuff I buy. But I also travel a lot so end up bringing lots of out of distro stuff hoe to drink. For other locals, 3 taverns had been putting out some good stuff lately, Monday Might has some decent stuff also. If you are going through Atlanta let me know and I can give you some tips.

Thanks for the heads up, I had seen some of there stuff in Augusta, but had not gotten any yet.

I went to CC over the summer, I thought Automatic was better than Tropicalia, Athena was great!

My bro in law and I are planning a weekend trip up to Ashville, I will be in Charlotte the end of March. I am advising our robotics team for SECON this year. A former colleague wants to meet up at NoDa while I am in town.

@pointcity-homebrew I know I gave you a bunch of info for Asheville but I'm told Heist Brewing in CLT is a must too. Haven't been able to get out that way yet. But just a heads up

Appreciate the heads up, we may got to both. I am not allowed to be in the testing room when the team is performing their final tests before the competition on Saturday.

Nice. Check the dates on the bottom, the two cans of morph were different batches.

Picture says it all... Wow Patrick... Put us all to shame

 

[Scturo]

Dang, Awesome Box!

 

[jimyson]

Jackpot!

 

[PatrickGoss]

Really guys, have you priced packing materials lately? It's cheaper to just fill the box with beer!

That's my story and I am sticking to it.

Not trying to tell you to use this instead of beer to fill the spots, but it is a cheap option with free delivery. It's a lot cheaper than Walmart/homedepot/etc

I'd accept that excuse. Not logical but it is your story after all. [emoji482]

 

[afro_lou]

Alright @PatrickGoss (and @pointcity-homebrew [emoji6])
I didn't "crack the wax," but I figured this was a good intro to the box. I am not disappointed!!!

I'll add my name to the list of "I'll take this anytime, anyplace" people. This stuff is excellent!

Whoa! I still haven't drank half of the one I just got!

I better get home and get my workout in so I can put another dent in it.
