Yes, 2013 release was Feb 27. There was a lot of snow.

I remember that day...

Isn't Clover the name of the brewery cat?

Yes. Clover was a very sweet cat, and she passed away recently.

 

[Number45]

I remember that day...

Yup. Almost died. Like three times. But got Norma and drank loons at PP!

 

[phing]

Did Clover really pass? Sorry to hear, if so.

All this CD #5 talk prompted me to fire open my last one. Still quite a treat...

 

[bsc]

Young cd5 is an all time favorite. would bang again and again, clover sounds promising.

back when we cared about what tastes better, me and the wife decided to get in line for growlers instead of getting a 2nd bottle of b1 Ann.

Thoughts on the latest batch of Florence (11/2014)?

Thoughts on the latest batch of Florence (11/2014)?

It's different. I heard from someone (don't remember who) that this batch didn't go into foudres. I don't know if that's true, but it tastes much cleaner than HF saisons usually do. Very little tartness out the door. Reminds me of Florence circa early 2013. That being said I loved it and I'm excited to see it develop. I think I extraed one of these bottles, but planning to keep the whole rest of the case for myself. I think it has some awesome potential.

The one that froze and flowed over in the back seat of my car smelled and still smells great.

The bottles I have had seem to have a little more bubblegum yeast smell then I recall from the past.

Yeah, poured this again tonight and I'm left wondering what was changed from previous batches...

Thought it was stupidly delicious when I had it a few weeks ago

Almost reminds more of circa 12' florence a lot more cloudy. we did a side by side with 7/14 last week two different beers for sure.

the saisons used to drastically change from batch to batch all the time. remember blue label arthur?
I thought when the fouders were introduced that alot of things started tasting way too similar.

Seems like since they've had them for a bit now, the saisons are starting to become a little more distinct again and they are starting to dial in exactly how they want them to be.

So will this mean we can enjoy a beer while waiting on the growler line?

Maybe Shaun will have a ticket system like a deli counter.
