Choir of the sun stole my heart tho

good luck with your ISO FoudreGuy. Apparently the going rate for this beer is B1K + HoG + an AO set.

This could also be shitlord manipulation. And when did they allow comments on the trade forum again?

My trade has been agreed upon and will be completed tomorrow morning. Frankly, I don't really want to drink my B1K and I was drinking and watching the Blue Angels all day which is way better than standing in line.

Absolutely no regrets. Guava is life.

was there for guava table back in october.. it was a very tasty bottle... drank my last one back in may and it was very brackish... a lot of salinity... still good but nowhere in the realm of what it fetches... imo... interested to read some reviews on this gin guava.. id highly suggest drinking within now and 1-3 months for whomever landed one however

 

[FoudreGuy]

I drank a Guava Table last week and it was still pretty perfect. Didn't pick up any of those imperfections you mentioned.

Still have a Gin Table so I'm thinking me and my beer bff will drink them side by side.

i still highly enjoyed my guava table when i had it in may... i wouldn't necessarily say the salinity/brackishness was a "imperfection" was more of just my tasting notes at the time... when i had it in October 2016 along side the grapefruitt table it really shined however.... but isn't that much the way it goes with fruit forward beers.. a brewery releases them and they are at their peak... most of the time.. not 100% but most... guava just didn't hold up to me like some people have reviewed it too... and with what it fetches... which is a metric fuckton on lots of markets.. just wanted to drop my .02 into the ring

really excited to hear about gin guava table however

also... i really lucked into a stellar ******* release when i was there in October... I doubt things will ever be as smooth as that was at the time... no line... no nothing.. just walked in.. ordered some beers and some bottles and enjoyed myself

 

[FoudreGuy]

The demands and offers for GGT are absolutely batshitty now. Guessing my trade for a B1K this afternoon got done before the shitlordering started.

Has anyone even drank it yet? I see one pictureless checkin on Untappd.

I'm planning to split my bottle w/ wethorseblanket. Will report back, eventually.

beerscenes and I will be drinking mine soon too. Picking it up tomorrow morning.

You know what feels good man? Not going to a silent release and not getting some insta hype beer and absolutely not caring. It's like reaching beer enlightenment. I remember the days where I'd feel like I missed out or feel like I had to tick everything. I've been freed from that bondage and it is glorious.

I mean, if you want to trade it for MS Coconut x 6 or something, I'll totally understand.

Not soon enough! When do you get back from WV? A share should probably go down.

Tonight

There were talks of a share sometime next week (I think) and by some miracle I'm free this entire weekend. I'll text you when I get my **** back together.

 

[FoudreGuy]

Got my bottle of Guava Gin Table this morning. The guy I gave the Brew 1,000 to seemed super excited to go share it with a couple buddies. Glad it went to a good home.

You know, I actually thought about that as I parked the car, but the two guys seemed so incredibly giddy about taking it to a bottle share with friends that I kind of felt ok. And I really didn't feel like drinking barleywine any time soon.

Welcome! Grab a seat next to me at the bar?

I'll buy the first round!

If they were willing to part with it for "just" a B1K, they probably aren't shitlords.

Fun fact: back when B1K was released and sitting on shelves, I traded one 1:1 for a West Ashley. LOL.

Thats my thought. Was waiting for the guy to demand more or cancel our trade, but nope, he was good.

SO...how the does GGT taste?!

 

[FoudreGuy]

SO...how the does GGT taste?!

I'm drinking it tonight alongside my last bottle of Gin Table. I don't have a second bottle of GGT, nor do I care one bit about increasing secondary value for others so I'll give honest thoughts. Nothing but 5's and hyperbole on Untappd right now.

Now I'm wishing I had waited on my Guava Table from a couple weeks back...

Oh well, that night was glorious. Wife was out with friends, put the kid to bed and I drank the whole 750 ml bottle by myself. And no ***** were given.

 

[FoudreGuy]

So yeah. It was really damn good. Like amazing. I don't think there's anything about the beer I didn't like and not what I was expecting. It was extremely different from Guava Table and Gin Table. Much tarter, a bit tangy and smelled a whole lot like Dole
Whip (my wife normally hates everything about sour beers and thought it smelled incredible). I enjoyed it immensely and wish I could have more but refuse to negotiate with terrorists.

TLDR: ***** real good, please make more.

 

[wethorseblanket]

so 5 stars to match 99% of untappd reviews? there is one 4.75 on there.
