Can we please not? This is the most stupid **** to hit the Internet in a long time.

That only encourages me.

Michigan is now set to get Alesmith. I'm happy to have them, but much less so than I would've been a few years back given our improving distro situation.

Almost makes me want to move back.

AleSmith just arrived in my part of Texas. Hopefully Speedway Stout and the IPA get here, as they were left out of the first shipment.

Speaking of Speedway I think it may be one of my favorite BA stouts.

BA Speedway is terrific. Regular ol' Speedway is long forgotten by many, but it's an excellent stout.

What's your part? I got a pour of speedway right when it got to Dallas, but haven't had any since. We got some kegs of Hawaiian, which was a surprise.

Saw that... really tempting.

I typically don't like hoarding big stouts, but BA Speedway is one I'll gladly buy in quantity.

I don't believe you.

I have enough stouts in the closet to last me a nuclear winter. I'm good.

 

[arren]

I don't believe you.

It was a short nuclear winter

And about 90% of those stouts are Speedway.

MIA Brewing bottled their black lager and the label looks exactly like a Cycle label. MIA is my favorite local brewery, but this is pretty bad.

I am so, so sorry.

We got Hawaiian kegs as well, and maybe even Velvet and Hammerhead. IPA sixers are old tho

Do you guys ever taste strawberry ice cream in mosaic hopped pales/IPAs?

BCS Raise up!
IIRC, Speedway bottles should be here soon. Bottles are only in DFW right now for Texas.

No but both are two of my absolute most favorite things in the world.

Anybody who knows about this baseball card will appreciate this beer. Great name / concept.

So much ISO. Still have that card somewhere too.

I would like to get some, too, given the brewery is 15 mins from my house. However, people are already talking about how early they have to line up for an IPA, IPA with orange pulp, and this kettle soured Berliner. Don't get me wrong, they make some very good beer....but not worth the driving distance that people will be putting in for this.

As I said in the MD thread, welcome to Beer circa 2016.

If I can get some, I will send you a PM.

Yeah, I'm a little surprised that people are talking about coming down from PA for that release... go get some growler fills from tired hands and leave us the **** alone. I really hope the case limit for both of the IPAs doesn't turn out to be a mistake

The thing is, they are good beers. But not great. Anybody going to this release could walk to a decently stocked bottle shop and find as good or better IPAs on the shelf. FOMO is a bitch, I guess.

I had Hop Hands the other night on draft at Threes in Brooklyn and I was really unimpressed. Bad batch maybe? I've heard great things about it and would like to revisit but I was disappointed with my first experience with it.
