Couldn't agree with you more. They seemed content to just sit on their boston lager and seasonal rotation for years while other craft breweries were trying new things. They may as well have been InBev; they were dead to me. I, for one, welcome this new effort by SA. Despite the less than stellar reviews and not making Beer Advocate's top 50 Barleywine list, Griffin's Bow is my favorite barleywine to date. As they say, "One man's trash is another man's treasure." I also liked their DIPA, Third Voyage. Not the best DIPA around but I wasn't beating myself up over the purchase. I'll have to give that Red Tasman a try next time I see it sitting on a shelf.
