I drank so much Heini's in 2014 that my friends were like "stop drinking so much Heini's for christ's sake" but i just kept on drinking it.

It was nuts.

2014 Heini's was really bad...I can't remember things, but I wanna say it was a drainpour...that bad. Has gotten steadily better since, with last year's just being really really tasty.

yeah 2014 wasn't great. Steadily improved though. When it was on at Church after their GABF gold medal, I probably filled 5 growlers of it. **** was a bargain at like $12 each.

I don't have a great memory either but i can't imagine i would have drank that much of it if i thought it was really bad, so i must not have thought it was really bad. I'm betting i liked it and that's why i drank so much.

C'mon Mort, you're 34 years old & haven't figured out how opinions work?

That was the best kept secret in town. I killed 3 growlers myself.

Opinions are like cats.

I hate em.

You more of a dog person?

In the beer world it's Okocim's razor, but ya, i'm a lush, i pretty much like all booze.

I believe it was a bottle of 2013 that we cracked and didn't really care for. From what I recall it wasn't a drain pour.

Funny, I was gonna tag you when I posted that...

Was there a 2013 Good Cheer? Damn...I guess I just assumed 2014 was the first year (for Roundabout).

Whatever the first year was, it sucked bad. If it didn't get drainpoured, then I can say I did not drink very much of my portion of it.

We get it Karl, you hate Roundabout.

Let's just talk about something else.

******* awesome

Nice, can look good getting drunk to avoid watching that disaster that Pitt puts on the field

 

[moarhops1]

Double Lustra?! ******* hell I'm going to have to go to Sharpsburg Wednesday

 

[london1o11]

Any word on how Caution bottles are holding up at Voodoo (london1o1)? Couldn't make it down over the weekend, but hoping to grab some later this week when I go to sign up for DoubleMex bottles.

I didn't get an exact count before I left on Sunday, but I would guess somewhere around 15 cases at that point.

 

[london1o11]

I remember I had a trade set up of my second growler of that for a Cigar City Leon when it first came out, then Leon's trade value immediately sky rocketed, the other trader backed out, and I was forced to drink a gallon of a gabf gold medal winning ba old ale. Rough times.

Has Voodoo's canned experience improved at all or still hit or miss?

 

[greg4579]

I haven't been on their website in a while, but I wanted to say that I like the Voodoo website update. It is nice that it includes draft lists and the food menus for each location.

 

[psbhockey12]

My opinion probably doesn't count bc I have luckily been fortunate enough to not experience the bad can(s) some have mentioned. But maybe bc I pick mine up shortly after canning, still cold, and travel 15 in home and back in the fridge. Plus I'm kind of a drunk and I finish my case or whatever in just over a week. I do know they own their own canning line now, or have for the last few months.

I think this is the important piece of information. Voodoo is not known for quality issues in their regular lineup, so I'd assume the "all clear" has been sounded going forward unless I hear otherwise.

I wish they'd do another run of cowbell cans as I loved the batch they did in April.

Price check on Hailstorm Vlad series, a Conquistador and a couple of Order of the Dragons. Thought they were $20/each, but potential trader saying they’re $30?

Also welcome opinions on the beer from anyone who’s had.

Are you talking about those little metal figurines you buy from the comic book store & then paint yourself?

I'd post something in the for trade help section of this site asking for the price.

Surprised I haven't seen anyone talk about this yet

Agreed ... I think that is one that I still have 2 cans left because I'm trying to save them for colder weather
